Hi hun, welcome hope your doing ok, i keep meaning to only be online for a bit but always seems to be hours lol x
 
Well its weigh in tomorrow so am going to have my fingers crossed all night now lol, ive updated my signature with a ticker now so i feel in the mood for on wards and downwards which hopefully the scales will help me in the morning, am feeling quite tired not going to walk tomorrow think i will do a stint with the kettlebells instead.
Think im going to get back into kettlebell training last time i done it it became quite an obsession i couldn't put the dam things down am going to try and limit them this time(hopefully she says) it got to the stage where i would rather swing than shop and that's not good eh
I hope everybody is having a good week or being good at least.......
 
Re: Back on SW as of today!!

Tbh I haven't tried kettle bells may have to look into it.
My form of body magic is walking and 30 day shred.
 
I have 30 day shred with weights so i use my kettlebell. If you go onto you tube you can find loads to do with them but if you are going to start i would find a class first as technique is vital hun you could do yourself some damage if you do not lift correct. They are great for shaping and toning totally scorch fat x
 
Re: Back on SW as of today!!

It's easy to hurt yourself I done it lol I brought a kettebell combat training DVD when I first got my kettlebells, I had a huge one in my hand and followed this American army bloke for about an hour of gruling pain thinking I was doing good, my son came round for tea that night and I showed him what I followed his jaw dropped and said do you not think your a bit old for that lol, the worse bit was I got into bed and I think I passed out my husband went mental at me, I can laugh about it now but it wasn't funny really oh and did I ache was really sore hun don't want you doing like I did :D

I'm the same as you, I've been doing a low Gl and low carbs before I seem to lose a bit then put on again!
My friend goes to SW class and she has lost 16lb now and she does eat lots of what she calls FREE food I struggle with that, but have decided to give it 100% and see what happens.
Been hard with dinner tonight and no gravy lol
If it works for so many other ppl I think I have to get my head out of the sand and ignore the calorie and carb content keep calm and carry on.
Will keep updates as I go
Good luck for Wednesday Sam let me know how you get on would love to know Xx

I had some gravy with my Sunday dinner yesterday and I'm sure that every 50ml of gravy made up according to the packet instructions was around 15cals, so for 100ml of gravy it was only 1.5 syns. I would need to double check that again for you, but that ways it means that you don't have to miss out :)
