Advocacy Physical Exercise

Why we are here.....
  
Its been a while since my last entry, but here is the one to start the new year.

It’s been a while since my last entry. Sadly there have been a few setbacks since last we spoke. Seems Christmas has taken its toll as I have returned to drinking alcohol. I took it upon myself to seek help with this and went down to Wirral Alcohol Service towards the end of December. They have given me a drink diary so I can keep track of what is going on and this week I will be stopping altogether. I am determined to keep it that way this time and as always I will keep everyone up to date with how I am doing.

In addition I have been in touch with the APEx health trainers over Christmas. They have taken my weight and we are going to check it again in a month’s time to see what is going on there. I have also started going to the Fire Station Gym to get that little extra bit of exercise in. Seems the Monday walks stopped over Christmas for a variety of reasons. Hopefully we can get those going again and today was the first one back in over a month. Surprise, surprise the rain couldn’t leave us alone, but we where still out.

Despite a few setbacks I am still down at APEx on alternate Wednesdays with my cinema night still going strong. Should be keeping this going well into the future, but I will let you all know of any changes. Speak soon.
