Firstly a big thank you to all that entered....we had a fantastic response. I have documented the whole process....well as much as I could considering 1 week before christmas my little happy snap camera has decided to pack it in! and a few of the pics I took didn't come out but did managed to save the important ones!

Step 1; Printed out all 325 entrant details (6 pages)
Step 2; I divided entries into blocks of 10

Step 3; Put all groups of 10 in a box

Step 4; My little man did a little mixing up and shaking

Step 5; He then pulled out a list of 10

Step 6; I got him to choose a number between 1-10 and he choose 4

Health & Happiness Journey

So I have decided to get my act together and go on a health kick...yes i do say this quite often but this time I will be holding myself accountable by making it a public thing!

This isn't some major weightloss exercise, although I do plan on losing a tad bit of weight and toning up alot! it is more about becoming the happiest /healthiest and best person I can be in 2010! So for the next 6 months, I will be posting every week or so my goals, progress, eating habits (good&bad), exercise routines, fitness tips (don't worry these will come from the experts!), recipes, fun, relaxation etc.

My health & happiness tools will include;

• Health & Well-Being Journal - a must have for every health & happiness journey
• DYO Magnetic Family Meal Planner - to keep evening family meals on track
• my.organiser - to schedule everything
• my trusty fitball - which doubles as my desk chair....great for posture and your abs.
• my beautiful new pink bike - which I just recently started riding....I had forgotten just how much fun bike riding is!
• treadmill - luckily the junk was taken off it recently so I can actually use it!
• yoga dvd
• pilates dvd and band
• hand weights

So if anyone wants to join me on their own health & happiness journey please do and feel free to leave any comments about your progress along the way.
