On Saturday 26th May I blogged about Getting Fit with Thinking Slimmer.
For the last month I have been listening to my Beach Body Slimpod and Fitpod every day in the hope of dropping a dress size and getting fit.
If I am honest, it hasn’t all been plain sailing. I have just set up as a Childminder and have taken on a number of mindees in the last 6 weeks, which has really limited any spare time I have.
My plan was to got out cycling, which is now impossible on the days I am minding, and the days I am not have all been horrendous weather wise. Personally I don’t mind getting wet, but it isn’t fair on Eliza who’d be sat on the back of the bike.
I also intended to go swimming, when the kids had their lessons. Again, I am now minding those days and I cannot afford to turn down work.
That said, I have noticed a difference in my eating habits. I have stopped grazing from the kids plates and am making far healthier food choices for myself. I am also much more motivated to get outside and take the kids for a walk even if it is raining – pushing a double buggy can be exercise enough sometimes!!
So what is my progress?
I have lost 5lbs in weight in a month, and have effectively dropped a jean size as I can now get into my size 12 jeans without having to hold my breath for the entire day.
Here are my before and after measurements:
Well done, that’s a fab start 🙂
