30 day plank challenge completed - 5 minutes has never felt so long in all my life! The last few days were hard, really hard, but I've done it. Abs are definitely toning up and stronger. Biceps too, which I didn't expect. I think I'm going to try and maintain this planking over the next few weeks to see if things continue to strengthen and tone. (less)

I have been working on this goal for a while. When I finished school and went in to the world of work, turning eighteen and transitioning in to adulthood, I decided I wanted to lose the 'puppy fat' if you will. Cutting out crisps and chocolate at lunchtimes, eating smaller portions etc. I have definitely noticed a change in my shape - I don't really do 'weight' in the getting on the scales sense. I'm more about how I look, the shape I am, and that has changed. Still a slight way to go though to get to where I want.
Today I am starting the 30 day plank challenge in an attempt to strengthen and tone my core, as this is the one area I really need to work on now. My arms I've toned, my calves are fine and sadly due to genes I will always have chunky, muscular thighs but I have grown to accept that as a part of me. It really is my stomach that causes me and my confidence problems - time to tone it up! (less) (less)
