Just slightly killed myself working out, my gosh. I went to a gym try out a couple days ago and although I benefited from it, it just didn't seem the best option!
it's full of skinny girls and hunky guys working out and people from uni most probably go there so it'll make me a bit uncomfortable. Also, around going to uni itself and spending time with friends and my boyfriend who are also in uni but different times it's gonna be hard to balance and expensive.
I decided to try ways in which I could exercise at home so this afternoon I spent 30 minutes playing just dance, which is always fun hehe and then the ' 7 minutes for 7 months ' workout app.
Walking up the stairs after it was a struggle, I can feel my muscles working already, shows how unfit I am!
all that will change though! try this 7 minute thing and maybe some just dance or a walk or whatever and see how it goes! better than the gym at least

Really really well! I lost about two stone. I then graduated, moved in with a boy and moved to Germany, land of beer and sausages, which is why I'm not still two stone lighter! I never found it a problem doing it at uni because I mostly drank vodka when I went out and I had time to make healthy soups and things. It'll teach you to cook if nothing else!
Just a tip: I LIVED on homemade vegetable curry. It was so cheap and so easy to make! I make much better ones now from actual cookbooks but back then I just threw veg (mostly peppers and butternut squash I think) in with tinned tomatoes, curry powder, garam masala and turmeric. Add rice and it's super super filling for almost no points.

that's fantastic, you must of been so proud
! even the last few days I've been learning how to cook new things and it's been really warning knowing that I'm able to do something I wasn't sure of! vodka is probably the best spirit but I just hate it! I'm more of an amaretto and coke. person! I'll have to find out the points for that when I need to I love curry, I've never made one myself though unless it came from a jar
I wouldn't even know where to start! suppose Google is always handy! it taught me how to make an omelette!! thank you for the tip and the inspiration! it makes me so determined when I hear people say they managed to lose weight at uni because that's the one place people tend to put it on (which I already have) hehe
