Waist: 29
Thigh: 21
Arm: 10.4

All in all I'm quite happy with my results but I feel in the last 5 months, if i put more effort into clean eating, I def would have seen better results. As of tomorrow: The month of April, I'm going to try much harder to eat healthy and clean and allow myself one cheat meal a week. Hopefully I will see more and faster improvements! Also, I am quite worried that as the Easter holidays will be coming soon, I will slack off with my running. So far my friend and I are running 6K with te intention of getting to 10 K by summer. So I neeed(!) to keep running to maintain my fitness!

Fitness update 3

It's been a long time since I last did a post. I am happy to say I kept up with the running for 2 months!Unfortunately I have had to stop these last tfour weeks due to a persistant pain in my calfs and major shin splints! From near the beginning my calfs hurt a lot whlst running and continued hurting during my daily activities. It meant I had a pain whilst walking up the stairs or a brisk walk to the bus stop! I thought it was just a little injury that I would be  able to run off but I am 100% sure running through it in these past 2 months made even worse. After thorough research online I decided to take a break this holiday and get new trainers! I was really annoyed at first when I realised the best thing I could do for myself would be to stop running as I had never really kept up with exercise for theis long, I was seeing differences in my body and was beating my running times every week! But I realise now its probably been the bets thing I have done for myself and I am determined to start again, and become fitter than when I started. Which leads to one of my new years resolutions.. run 5k at a decent time and do a charity run!
