Thread: start all over

SO!!

here we go again peoples!

after trying slimming world for a month and doing really well losing a stone and a half! (woohoo) i sadly had to stop due to, no money so hand to eat when my mum bought me (not always slimming friendly) and also just not having time to prepare myself or anything. i like to plan things out!

i recently got a job as im only 18! great job love it and love the paycheck that now i can use to buy my food, gym pass, and everything else! this month is guna be slimming mad month!!!

im really excited to start! any tips? go it alone? sign up online? go to class? all possible i dont mind!

My first question is did you attend a class, online or go it alone the first time you lost the weight? If you did it alone you know you can do it so, I'd save the weekly fee each week and put it aside and use it to buy yourself something nice (new outfit,make up etc etc) each time you reach a mini goal. If you went to class or online, then keep doing that.

You might be able to get some classes at your local community school or classes through the council (should be new session soon) a lot cheaper then the gym as you'd be on a student rate. You can take all sorts of exercise classes from yoga, tap dancing, dancing, hula hooping, belly dancing, bum tum thighs I do this one, love it!), aquarobics the list goes on and on. Or you can go out to poundland and rake through their dvd section to pick up the biggest loser dvds and use those.

You can do a lot of slimming world for free (30 day shred on you tube), or cheap dvd or classes. I'd save your money for treats your mum doesn't buy such as chewy delights or special k bars, or anything else that you might want that isn't in the house.

thanks for the advice im going to look into everything you've suggested =D my mums the type of person who plans the meals for the week and only buys those things, im trying to get her and my dad to do a week with me =) so far they arn convinced haha!
