And so it begins...

I've set myself a challenge. A superficial challenge, but a challenge nonetheless. I am three days away from sitting my last ever exams at university. That's it. Done. Which is incredibly scary, but the blow is softened a bit by the month or so left between finishing exams and leaving to go back home.

Of course, within that month is Graduation Ball. And during exam time I have been eating literally anything and everything that I can get my hands on. Having decided that the beached whale look is something I don't want to be reminded of in the inevitable photos, I have decided to do something about it.

Essentially, I am going to embark on a bit of a two week programme to get fit, shape up, and generally prepare for Grad Ball. And then I'll write the results on here. I am sure that in my quest for a decent look I'll end up trying out all sorts of products and remedies, so I'll review them here and hopefully end up giving some impression of what actually works! I am also going to try and eat relatively well, so I'm sure that sharing with the rest of the internet what I have been eating everyday will motivate me to ensure that is at least some occassional portions of fruit and veg.

So that's it. My master plan to become something of a two week wonder, hopefully with fairly decent results, with a blog documenting my dubious successes and more likely failures. But I will give it a go, and hope for the best!
