Ella Im so happy your in We can help each other do this ive started by keeping a food diary just so i can keep track on what im eating and what i should change, maby that might work for you to, and keep a record of your weight and measure your hips waist and bust if you like it can help motivate you when you see your loss there to. The girls might come up with some more tips with what they do too.
I need some good ideas on healthy snacks to have that are filling?
Claire_A- Thanks hun Wow your doing so well with your training i cant wait to hopefully see a personal trainer but abit scared he'll kick my but too lol Is it very expensive to have one? i look forward to seeing how you go tomorow hun x
Emma - call around for PT prices. In my area they vary from $55 for a hour to $150 for 45 minutes!!!! And a personal trainer will push you to your boundaries but shouldn't exceed them... and they should be aware of your limitations (injuries) and work within those constraints.
Emma,
I was seeing a PT she was like $55 a session, but that just proved too expensive for us. I know a girl I met from Belly has started going to pram excercise classes that cost like $5 each. She said its a great work out and really pushed her, so maybe see if there is one in your area...
As for snacks. I really love to have a low fat smoothie. I freeze my bananas so that I don't have to put any ice cream in... then milk bananas and some honey and wamo yummy!!!
Also tuna on 98% fat free premiums fills me up really well, doesn't sound like it would but it does!
So I weighed myself this morning and it said 71.5kg. I'm sure it's probably just the difference in scales but hey I'll take any loss even if it's only .5kg lol!
Welcome Ella, so glad you're joining us! Great idea about the frozen banana smoothie - I think I'll have to try that.
Emma my pt is cheap beacuse I do it with 4 other women. It only costs me $16 per hour lesson. It's a mums and bubs group so you can bring your babies along which is great. Maybe do a google search to see if there's something similiar in your area? The pt modifies the exercises to suit everyones needs - I have arthritis in all my joints and I think I used that as another excuse as to why I didn't do any exercise. But the pt taught me that weight bearing exercise will actually strenghten my bones so there's no excuses anymore!
Ella- Wow that is a good idea ive got a beautiful new blender with smothie attatchment n bananas and have also swapped my normal milk and bought some physical low fat milk. will definently be making one of those today! Will have to go shoping one day this week to fill up on some healthy food ill add tuna n premiums to the list also lol
Claire_A- Congragulations on the weightloss seriously it makes all the difference and it all adds up in the end ! Think if you lose that much each week thats amazing you'd be at your goal weight in no time and also remember wen we start working out we put on muscle as it weighs more than fat so thats why i measured myself too to see the loss in width too.
P.S wIll be checking out pt too even if its just an assesment so i know what i should be working on especially with my injury instead of seeing them frequently to save $$$
