Child Obesity rates leveling off

Some really good news today as the rise in childhood Obesity rates seems to have levelled off.

Back in September I meet with Health Secretary Andy Burnham where we discussed the Governments 5 a day Healthy eating campaign.

The key for Government both local and national is to encourage the concept of a healthy lifestyle with a good diet and regular exercise.

Their is proven link between poverty and bad health for example men in Chelsea and Kensington live to 83.1 years on average compared to 73 years in Manchester.

Ideally not only would it be good for the gap to narrow but for the men to live longer in Chelsea and Kensington as well.

Fit for office

Well been a fairly average day with my bike now back from repair I peddled of to Norwich and recorded a personal best time of 55 mins from home.

Can now really feel my quads have been working, whilst in Norwich I purchased some new swimming gear with the aim to cut drag and head from 1250m in just over the hour mark to 1500m.

Tomorrow will be an early start in the gym at 7am for an hour before the 1250m swim later in the day a good walk hopefully at the coast with the evening ending up at my local for the Curry night.

Now about to stock up on the carbs with some egg noodles.

Brighton shopping an Fitness

Well main acheivement of the day was find some really good fitness gear at sports direct.

Running shoes, shorts, running top and bag to hold all my stuff in such as phone, wallet and keys.

Tomorrow I will putting myself through a mixture of running, sit ups, press ups ect on the sea front.

Totally fed up with feeling unfit and my body not beaing able to perform the way I want it to !

Great Night out in Brighton

Had a totally great night out in Brighton.

It started out badly got fish and chips ate them on the beach drinking a tin of fosters watching the sunset over the sea would have been romantic if I had someone with me.

Walked up and down the peir with a feeling of emptiness and being alone before coming back to Baggies where I meet up with Amy, Char, Becks and Maddie.

After good conversation and drinking games we all headed to a club called Audio music was not that great spo we all end up in a bar with me leaving feeling rather tired at 2:00am quick pizza on the way home (diet broken again) and bed at 3am.

Today my plan is getting some food for breakfast bacon, eggs and bread along with some gym kit to use as I try and keep myself alive.
