I think a class or group activity might be better. If you can't motivate yourself to do it at home, it'll be similar for going to the gym "oh, I'm too tired tonight, I'll go tomorrow" but if it was a zumba class, or a hockey group or something, you'll have a day it is on and you'll be more likely to go. It'll be more fun too. 
Just find a class that looks appealing to you

I'm a member of a gym and mix it up between classes and working out on my own. I don't know if you have one near you but I go to Pure Gym which is about £18 a month and they do loads of free classes. I do spinning, circuits and boxercise for free. It's open 24 hours too.

ooh, if they do free classes at gyms then sorted! We don't have a gym down this way, it's full of old people, if they can get up and down our big hills then they are ok! haha.

Glad you had a good time scarlett x shame about his brother but glad it wasnt as bad as it could have been x
Well a very interesting night tonight, was booking hotel rooms for OHs family for the wedding and asked him to check with his brother what room he wanted etc..and so his bro phoned him back and while they were chatting his mum told him to tell us that we have two choices for our wedding gift from her 1st is for her to pay for our wedding rings or 2nd is to pay for us to have a honeymoon! Shocked as never expected anything let alone something so expensive! Now I definately have to get him a passport lol

Lol Jo, I walk quite a lot. I'm getting quite the reputation. Went into an estate agent's with my mum and the bloke goes "oh I know you, you're always out walking, you're a very active young lady!" HAHA mum and I burst out laughing. Turns out he lives along the next road so he does see me marching around quite often!
Christie that is fabulous news! How generous of her! Where do you think you guys will go? My friends went to Cuba for theirs last year.

That's lovely Christie! How kind of her.
Another Monday, I've a busy week ahead too, although at least that makes it go fast. It feels like its a week where ill be busy but I'm not sure what will happen.
Slept really soundly last night, I'm so tired lately slept like a baby all weekend, the only thing I did was go to the cinema but that obviously took it out of me!

Hello ladies! Christie that is lush news, so so nice of her, a cruise would be amazing!
Scarlett so glad you had a lovely time, shame about OHs brother!! Thank goodness it wasn't worse! Bless him!
I don't know what to so with my EL beef mince tonight, I don't fancy any of the usual things such as spag Bol, chilli con carne and so on! Want to do something totally different, in my head I was thinking hmmm what if I cut my potatoes in half, cook them, take them out, scoop the potato out and add my cooked beef mince and HEX cheese in and add back into potato skins and cook till crispy and cheese all yum and melted. Would this be nice? Or am I delirious? Hahaha x

My grandma used to make stuffed peppers using mince, roasted off in the oven. Lovely.
Just got a call saying tap class is cancelled today because she has the runs. Just waiting to see if nate's play date is still on. Looks like it is going to pee it down here.

Wow Christie what a generous gift! How lovely! D you think you will go for honeymoon over rings then? So exciting! When is your wedding again? X
Hey jess! Really was fab, think his accident made us all more cautious which was good but poor thing! Ooh yeah the potato mince sounds good, another idea would be meatballs? Can make a ragu type sauce to have with them?
We have nothing in..so hungry but unless I'm going to start munching on frozen broccoli for breakfast I think I need to pop to the shops for essentials to last till our tescos shop comes tomorrow. X
Aww fran shame your class was cancelled, how are they going? How many have you had now? X

My fave green day dinner is baked bean lasagne,
chop up onion, garlic, courgettes, mushrooms, peppers, any softish veg you have really into small cubes
Fry in fry light till soft and add salt pepper, tin of beans and tinned tomatoes, bring to boil and layer in dish with lasagne sheets. Top with hexa cheese and cover with foil, bake for 20 mins and uncover, brown the top. Yummy!
