My Weightloss Journey

So far this year I have completed two detox programmes, fasted for two days and joined two online programmes    

I have been going through these with you on my blog. Today I have compiled a short video with some of the things I've achieved. 

Losing weight or toning up requires dedication determination and support.

Challenges

 

 

 If you are struggling with your weight loss regime right now, you may want to decide to take small steps.

If you break down your weight loss into small manageable chunks you will find this easier to achieve.

 Many people give up all too easy when there is a large amount of weight loss to lose .

The secret is to break it down into stages.

You may want to look at the first steps as losing 10 pounds.

Once you have lost 10 pounds this will encourage you to then look at setting yourself another weightloss goal.

> It is far better to breakdown your weight loss into easy manageable steps. This'll help to give you the focus required and the motivation to lose the weight and more importantly stick to it.

Cross Country Bike Ride

Sunday afternoon, we decided to go for a carvery meal.  Now there are alot of calories in a carvery meal approximately 800 to be exact. However, in order to couteract the number of calories about to be eaten, we went on our bikes.  


The Carvery is about 2 miles away, so it was a lovely ride there as Sunday was lovely and warm, just a bit windy. 


The carvery meal itself was delicious and worth every bit of the 800 calories.  So on the way back home, I decided we should do a detour and go another way home. 


Turns out we got lost, and ended up doing a 7 mile round trip home!  

Calories lost = 728, so great news, lost nearly all the calories from the carvery meal!  

Result!


The great thing is that if you do decide to have a naughty meal, make sure you also have a way to get rid of the calories you are about to eat, this means exercising.  


Unfortunately, the only way to lose weight is to use up more calories than you eat!


We all know this, but why do we chose not to follow it. 


My challenge to you is to plan your activity each day that will lose you the same amount of calories that you will have eaten for the day!

Fridge Friend.... Would You Like A Helping Hand?

 Ladies and Gentlemen, sometimes we all need friends, or buddies to tell us when we are going off track. 

We would all love to have comfort that there is someone out there that is honest enough to tell us when we look 'aweful'.  Whether it's something we want to hear or not!  

Here is my friends at the LFGC UK, we are honest enough with each other to do that without upsetting or taking offence.  

But, for some of us there are no friends or buddies, or we may just not want to burden them with our thoughts and feelings of what we are going through.  

Some of us don't have the will power, and give up way to easily on achieving our targets and goals, whether weightloss or otherwise. 

SO I was priveldged when one of our readers offered up something which they found online, and which has helped them to stick to their program.   Now this handy little devise is called a 'Fridge Friend', or Enemy, depends who you look at it :)

 

 The Fridge Friends is a magnetic frame where you can set up motivational recordings to help you keep stick  achieve your goals and dreams....


How does the Fridge Friend Motivate you to do this?  

This little devise is so flexible, you can either take a photo or two, or record up to three or more 10 second videos to inspire you to either exercise or lose weight, work out more, or simply to help you work towards your goals and dreams whatever these may be. 




I gave this to a friend for a week, to get her perspective on this, and here is her review below:

"I thought the VM was fantastic. I was easy to use and theinstructions were clear and structural. Due to shift work I have a bad habit ofsneaking down stairs at late hours in the night to see what I can munch on.I’ve struggled a lot breaking out that habit but after having a the VM for aweek, I was able to record positive memos to myself which motivated me a lotand  I am now back on the right track,not eating at late hours.  Just using it for the week, I have managed 2lbs of weightloss! Yeah! However theonly issue I had was I didn’t now how to take a photo, on the VM and I couldn’tfind any instructions for it. SF, Herts"

I also used the devise for a week and here are my views:

Had fun recording movational messages on it to help me achieve some personal goals of mine. One of my foodie downfalls is cheese and biscuits with a glass of wine in the evening.  Having the Fridge Friend in place actually stopped me on a number of occassions from raiding the fridge... I should have recorded a message for my partner to lay off the 'chocolate'! lol! 

When you go near the fridge, press the play button to see the video message recorded! You can have fun with it too...


Another great review from a friend (Carla Froggat /twitter @IdeasByNet)

who recommended this to me, and who also used this:

TheFridge Friend is perfect for recording motivational clips, reminders andinspiration. For example, I use it to record short interval workouts to help meget moving in the morning!

So there you have it, many uses for the fridge friend not just for dietary purposes, for exercise goals and also for personal motivational goals as well.  


The Fridge Friend retails at £24.99 and you can order through a sales representative  direct from this site http://www.ideasbynet.com/ 

 
I am including a PDF with moredetails of the Fridge Friend

Get in Early for the 2012 Weight Loss Challenge

Now we only have three more days by my calculation until the new year 2012 begins. Many of us have enjoyed lovely Christmas dinners cooked by mothers, aunts, uncles and loved ones, and boy does everyone make and effort for the special holidays.

I for one am still stuffed from Christmas Day dinner alone and its two days after the event! I tried to get to the gym on Boxing Day, but it was closed.. :(

So do you know what I did? I went to the shops and bought a second wii controller and took this home, with the intention that me and my wonderful partner Glenn would get on that wii and play a few games of tennis and maybe a round of boxing!

So what if I didn't make it to the gym, there are other ways to enjoy yourself and lose a few calories at the same time. Go find what it is that suits your thing.... Let's face it the gym is not for everyone.

So round about the 3rd of January I will be going on a 10 day detox.... if your up for it, then click on the tab above and join me as I give a day by day account of my 10 day detox plan. Once that's over, then sign up for the weightloss challenge.... this should take us into summer in time to show off our sexy bodies for the beach season.

Getting in shape takes time, it won't happen overnight. There are no miracles for losing weight quickly and still looking good. Lose weight in a controlled manner, which will be slow, but you know what it will stay off longer and you won't find yourself swinging up and down those scales like a yo-yo.

Start now by reducing the portion sizes, taking walks in between and playing fun games with the kids and family!

Enjoy the rest of the Christmas season and we will be getting down to work in 2012.

Who Inspires You?

Yes, I am celebrating another birthday. We have so much to be thankful for as we get on in years! I have had so many of you wish me a Happy Birthday only Facebook page I am overwhelmed with your kind thoughts and greetings.

I believe my good health has been attributed to my healthy lifestyle. Eating sensibly and getting regular exercise. It's far too easy to not eat sensibly and to skip exercise, but the downside of doing this is obesity, illness and in some cases death.

Now a certain lady has inspired me to keep up with the exercise and sensible eating routine. Earnestine Shephard is 73 and in top form for her age.

Let me know your thoughts by leaving me a comment below.
I have included a link for you to Read her story her.
