Is anybody out there !
Hi all
A little bit about me if anyone is interested, I'm not new to dieting but I am new to calorie counting. Two years ago I lost 10 stone in 18 months on slimming world , unfortunately I've now put back on 6 of those since the loss of my beloved dad last year.
I am a horrendous comfort eater ! If I'm stressed happy sad I eat ! But enough is enough !
On the 1st of may I joined my local gym and joined my fitness pal so I have all the tools it's up to me to make this happen !!
This week I've been to the gym on tues weds thurs so far I plan to go sat and Sunday and maybe swimming on Monday. At the gym I do 10 mins on the bike to warm up 10 mins on the cross trainer (nearly kills me) and 20 mins uphill walking on the treadmill I try to keep my heart rate around 140. I also did some resistance work on the machines on Friday ! I'm new to this gym lark so if anyone has any advice id really appreciate it.
I do get a personal trainer session but if I'm honest I'm too embarrassed to use it till I'm smaller ! I'm chuffed I made it into the gum in the first place !
Mfp has me on 1670 calories a day and I do eat back my excercise ones seems like a lot to me but I suppose I am larger that the average bear !
So weigh day today and I'm down 4 pounds to 21stone 9 lbs, if I'm honest I was a bit disappointed at first then I worked out that's 4lbs in 4 days ! So I couldnt really expect more !
If you've made it this far well done I'm impressed
Xxxx
