Tough to transform your body if Chinese buffet has drooling

WELL this is exciting. Hello, I’m Lynne. Presenter on Pure

Radio daytime, mum of two boys, cockapoo owner and wife of a St Johnstone fan.

I’ve been in radio for more than 20 years now. (And saying that makes me feel very old.)

But it’s been a blast. And

I love doing something that doesn’t feel like work, talking and playing great music on a daily basis.

I’m trying to embrace getting older.

But I’m also trying to cling on to every bit of youth I have left in me. Or as much as I can get away with at least.

I’m talking like I’m about 95 years old here, but I’m actually 38.

I can’t quite believe it. But then I probably don’t act my age.

I go to the gym. Lots. I wish I’d had this enthusiasm for the gym when I was in high school.

Every week I’d be missing PE due to some made up excuse.

Unfortunately the PE teacher caught on when I had my period for six weeks in a row.

Now I’ve realised it’s not only good to feel fit and strong.

Working out is great for your mental health too and sometimes a short blast of exercise is good for the soul.

I’m currently doing a 12-week transformation course with my gym, Club 300, in Perth.

I’d got to a point where I was looking in the mirror and hating what I saw.

I needed something to focus on.

So for the past nine weeks

I’ve been tracking food, doing regular workouts and getting a certain amount of steps in per day.

Yes, it’s tough. Sometimes

I just want to go a Chinese buffet and eat my body weight in noodles, satay and prawn crackers.

But I feel great and see a huge difference already.

And I can’t wait to update you on my journey in another few weeks.

You’ll know as well as I do though that life gets in the way at times.

So I’m not going to lie – there’s been the odd wee meal out here and there.

But it’s all about balance, right?

I love eating out (a lot),

DJing, spending time with my kids, going to the movies and cooking.

I have tattoos, one is Ghostbusters themed and the other is for Britpop.

And I am originally from Falkirk but have been living in Perthshire for the past eight or nine years.

I love Only Fools and Horses and I’ve had my nose pierced since I was 13 years old.

Hopefully that gives you a wee bit of an idea about who I am.

And if you want to know anything else, just drop me a message.

I’m @lynneontheradio on socials.

But please, no trolling, I don’t have time for idiots on social media.

I’m excited to bring you my chat every week and I hope you enjoy reading it.

And if you want to tune in to my chat too, I’m on Pure Radio, Monday to Friday, from 10am until 1pm and on a Saturday from 1-4pm.
