TV is making me fit

For real.

I don't normally watch a lot of tv during the week. 

But there are a number of shows I've really wanted to watch but have missed, mostly because I feel bad sitting down doing nothing while they're on. 

I can't sew when anything good is on because I keep stabbing myself in the finger with my needle while trying to do the chameleon trick with my eyes.

So I set up the cross trainer WonderMan found for me on Gumtree (our favouritest place in the whole wide second hand world) behind the couch so I can watch tv and exercise. 

The Big Bang Theory, Top Gear, QI... I'm sure that laughing while exercising is good for my abs AND my soul.
And if I've had a bad day and just want to burn out my anger without having to use my brain... there's always the TurtleMan.

 So, contrary to popular belief, television can make you skinny. 

You're welcome.

    1. Thursday night is a designated "Trash TV" night. Pure infantile fun.

  3. For me, it was 7 seasons of NCIS on the recliner exercise bike.

    By then, I was recovered enough to get back to gym and had a serious crush on Abby.

    Isn't it great to watch them without adds and to not have to wait a week for the next episode!
