Saving for a new wardrobe as a REWARD

Hey lovely people...

As you know I started on Friday weekend wasn't really my get up and go ... but today is, my paperwork is completed, my fit bit is on and I de-cluttered my wardrobe to see what I have and what I don't need. That was very empowering - I have decided that I WILL LOOSE THIS WEIGHT, I am not going to be the fat sister in law on my husbands brothers wedding and that I will be treating myself to some new outfits...

I've also set up a standing order £30.00 for a new wardrobe in jan 2018 - I have worked out that I can really have the body I want and feel good for me and that my husband will match it so not bad... if I really give this 12 week programme everything I HAVE

Loving the support and the forum

Is the app any good?

Thank you

Good morning mannikaur and such a lovely uplifting post 😊

It's a great feeling being empowered and in control. I love the idea about a standing order for clothes, very motivating. Especially with a wedding coming up ❤️

With regards to the app. There are two. A HU one and NHS 12 week plan one, both are useful but limited, I've reviewed them in the pinned posts section.

ooh I might try that, would love to have an amount for every lb lost but what would I even decide!?🤔

I started Friday, had a good day, Saturday went off track, yday back on and today been good and within Cal count of 1750 with a 3 mile walk this morn and I hope to try some form of strength later.....any suggestions moat welcome as all I really do is walk/stationary cycle and swim very occasionally....😊

you will have such a great time choosing outfits in January, I hope to have kicked 3stone by July of next yr, more if possible but really want 3off.....holiday will be booked soon so I have no option!😆

hey mcc13

well im in the same boat ... im not able to walk at the moment but weight creeping no.. what ive decided was £1 for every 1lb lost.. and £30.00 as a bonus! I have a weight loss jar that I got from another post!!! nothing in there yet lol...

I'm 12.9stone and I should be around 10.5 too so we can definitely do it.

would love a walking a buddy too... but not many people from where I am
