Hi jamrox great minds think alike LOL, since being diagnosed on the 25/3/14 / I have tried to do about 30 mins a day to get fit, by walking on going on my bike and lately using light weights to improve my self so iam in for defo, good luck with yours

As I come to the last 5 days of the 5x50 challenge I start to think oh god why did I set up another challenge straight away ....then I realise that the reason I have to set a challenge is because I am naturally a couch potato but I can't be now so will complete the 5x50 challenge and then we will do 30 minutes exercise every day for 42 days then we'll all be smug and feel great.

Hi I added a photo but can't get it to go the right way up.
I am 48 . Weigh 160lb and 5"7'. Thought I would share but don't want anyone else to unless they want to.
I want to keep exercising cos it makes me feel better and Id like to loose 7lb to be 10st something. Sorry if Ive already said this.

I am purely for my own benefit. I'm going to do the exercise challenge for 2 months from May 12th to July 12th for now and when July comes around I might carry it on for another two months until September 12th as I go back to university on the 13th.

Fantastic. I was frightened that I would stop exercising once the 5x50 challenge so decided to challenge myself to do 30 minutes for 42 days . Then I wondered if others would like to join me and happily they are. It makes it easier because I will feel as if I ll let people and myself down if I don't.
Im on holiday after that and will be walking alot so once I get back I might join you until Sept.

I am in too Jamrox - thanks for the great idea and the gentle nudge to get up and going - really needed that.

Also, the idea of reporting back every day would tend to 'keep me on my toes' in the literal sense ...

So, we will be speaking ...

- best of luck and encouragement to all participants - we will become a much fitter lot ...

You are a great support for your husband. Wish my husband was as supportive. He didn't eat sweet things until I was diagnosed. He honestly doesn't see that he isn't helping .

I have a few friends doing it who aren't diabetic. They are real people who I see a lot and friends on Facebook land ( who are real people I just haven't seen them in years lol) .
