{Archive: August 11, 2009} I'm baccckkkk....

Hey friends,

I'm back in OC.. I had the most awful flight getting back from NYC. It started of with the flight being delayed because the left engine wasn't powering up so having to sit on the tarmac for over 2 hours whilst they fixed the plane.

Wait lets go back a few more hours.. the day began with me missing my train to the airport and having to call a cab to take me to JFK.. the cab driver was from.. PAKISTAN.. so guess what we spoke about.. politics!!!

Checked myself in, requested an exit seat because of the extra legroom as I'm 6' 3" TALL (not wide.. but close tho) and sitting besides me was a 6ft5 dude.. and i thought to myself uh oh.. the battle for the armrest begins.. initially i thought i wont put my arm there and nor will he.. so there ain't any touching moments between us.. cos my flight was going to San Francisco (SF is famous for gays..and I've had my fair share of guys liking me). So anyway what does he immediately do.. take the arm rest completely and pokes his elbow into me. I really wanted to say DUDE MOVE UR ARM!!!! but i thought the next moment he moves it.. I'm taking that space.. so my 5h 30min flight was a constant fight for the armrest (am i still talking about the armrest). So we finally landed and I had missed my connecting flight to Orange County so had to wait 3 hours for connecting flight. I see the plane pull up to the stand.. and it was the tiniest plane i had seen in my life... and i thought uh oh.. I'm not gonna fit (it was quite spacious bar the headroom). I took a shot for you to see..

When i got back to OC.. Kathleen and Matt picked me up (thank you guys!!!) and we went to a really wonderful place for dinner. They said i looked thinner..which was a good boost..
So I'm back in OC for a week :o( then I fly back to London... noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.... but good news is... I'm moving to NYC in September!!! wooohoooo!!!!

{Archive: July 13, 2009}: OMG its another post.. woohoo!!!

Its your lucky day people.. o BTW.. thank you for all your support.. you know who you are.. no names will be mentioned (no not cos there isn't anyone.. or that I'm being sarcastic) As your all aware.. or not.. the sports club is about 2.5 miles walk from my apartment.. so i walk to the club and back (and workout when i get there.. cos whats the point then.. duhhhh). So on Thursday i had a training session with the "legend" Sal.. So he tells me weights are as important as cardio.. as it helps build up our metabolism and your body burns more calories when its repairing itself.. etc etc... so he walks me through my routine.. and we get to the most dreaded machine in the gym... THE SQUAT MACHINE... omg is all I'm gonna say.. my butt was hurting for 3 days after.. at that point when working out on the machine.. i wanted to tell Sal.. i hated him for introducing me to my nemesis.. but i will conquer thee and my butt cheeks will be as sexy as Jessica Alba (

{Archive 21 June 2009} My first.. blog/post.. not sure what you call it

I have created this blog for two reasons, firstly so everyone I know can follow my progress. Secondly so that I may hopefully inspire someone else to take a leap in a similar journey. I intend to bring together all the knowledge I have acquired into one place.. ranging from Nutrition, whats a good workout regime, how to overcome physical/mental hurdles. Well its Sunday.. I've left sunny England in exchange for Orange County, California. I arrived last week and I have begun my journey.. so far I have walked 12 miles to Newport Beach and back home..i loved it.. but my feet didn't. I've rested my feet this weekend, tomorrow I plan to check out one of Orange Counties sexiest gyms ( no not the eye candy).

{Archive: July 14, 2009) Im a barbie girl.. life in plastic...

you all remember that song by Aqua - Barbie Girl.. (here's the YouTube link if your not sure http://youtu.be/ZyhrYis509A ) well i was at the gym yesterday. There i was cycling and i notice this old lady walk up the stairs.. and shes STARING at me.. and I'm thinking why is she staring at me.. but as she walked away i realised that her stare was in fact static... and it was a moment of revelation.. light bulb moment.. the chick had obviously had a face thingy bob done.. and this was her normal look.. i suddenly noticed all the mature women looked the same like a factory production of OAPs (over aged pensioners) ..maybe they have the same surgeon (but who i am to talk..when my belly looks like im having triplets). I chuckled to myself and thought welcome to Newport Beach... where life in plastic is clearly the norm..
