Going to be a yummy mummy! ^.^

[Joanne24]

Hello

I'm Joanne, 26 from outside of Glasgow. I live with my partner Scott and our 2 kids. I started SW in 2009 and lost over 2 stone! Then in March 2010 I fell pregnant with our son Mason, put all the weight back on! Pigged out and couldn't stick to plan

I've rejoined from the start of Feb 2011 and I am loving being back to SW, cooking lots and eating lots!!

So far I have lost 18lbs on plan and I need another 3 pounds to get me to my next shiney sticker and my club10, my fingers are crossed for this week but who knows? Might be longer.

I used to have a website for my weight loss but I love mini mins and all the support and information it gives you, I prefer posting on here

I hope you'll join me on my journey to yummy mummy

Hi Joanne thought I'd reply to your query on here rather than on Hunca's diary

Kettleworx is a fab exercise programme where you use a kettlebell weight.

The programme is split into 6 weeks and consists of 3 20 min sessions - core, resistance and cardio. Each of these sessions focus on toning different areas of the body.

I have found the kettleworx programme extremely effective and although I haven't had a massive weight loss I have really toned up in my stomach and legs.I have some pictures in my signature link which show the resuts( I was never overweight to begin with just wanted to shift weight ive gained in the past few years.)

I bought the dvds from amazon and the bell from argos - the initial outlay is expensive but so worth it and when yoy have finished the 6 weeks you can start over with a heavier bell. I started with a 5 kg and am now using a 7.5 kg.

I have noticed that you've posted on the kettlebells thread but as there are sooo many pages to get through I thought a summary might help!! Any qs just ask

Good luck

 

[Joanne24]

Thank you! Did you just purchase the essential one for 50 the buy the seperate weights?

 

[chickadee83]

Yes it was essential Kettleworx I bought
KettleWorx Essentials - 6 Kettlebell Training DVD Set: Amazon.co.uk: Sports & Leisure

Bought my bell seperate from argos cos the one with the dvds was too light - I'd recommed a cast iron 5 kg bell to get you started( on sale for 4.99 in Argos)
Buy Maximuscle Kettlebell - 5kg at Argos.co.uk - Your Online Shop for Home gym equipment.

You might want to try tesco and amazon too for a kettlebell to see which offers best price but go for iron over plastic coated as these ones are quite slippy!!

 

[Joanne24]

None of the argos ones left in stock, damn! Will have a look on tesco etc thank you very much x
