Just thought I would post about the many excuses which I can tell you Ive heard before & thought I was going to hear myself say about Slimming World...
Im always hungry on diets,With Slimming World you can eat as much normally healthy food as you like whether it be meat, fruit, veg, pasta etc there is always something that you can eat so you are never hungry which means you never need to eat the "bad" stuff.
Healthy food is too expensiveIf you shop savvy and go to the cheapest of places shops like Aldi do regular deals on fresh fruit & vegetables and it is always useful to know. Then if it is products that are going to last a reasonable length of time go and buy in bulk from somewhere such as Costco or Makro to make it a lot cheaper.
Generally for a person for a week we can keep costs to about £25 a week on a fully healthy diet. Lets face it you would pay out more than that in takeaways a week.
I get cravings, it would never workHold right there, with the plan you can have a little of the things you crave and still enjoy them and lose weight. If you had an event on at the weekend and stuck to plan 100% all week then just did it as good as you could then you are likely to have a loss the next week. So dont let life get in your way.
Ive not got time to cookBeing a full time student and living at home with parents who both have full time jobs we dont always find time to cook but we plan in advance and make sure something is in the slow cooker for when we come in on an evening to tuck into and save us diving right into the cakes or junk which often lie around the house.
I dont have time to exerciseOften I dont. Life gets in the way a lot of the times and especially coming up to exam seasons I dont often find time to even do something once a week but exercise can be anything from cleaning the house to get your heart rate up to a quick 10 or 15 minutes on the wii on Just Dance or something like that. It doesnt have to mean an hours swim 3 times a week or 6 hours in the gym. You can still lose weight being on plan and not doing any exercise, it just comes off at a slower rate which some are happy with.
One bite wont hurt
If you are anything like me then you know this isnt quite so true. One bite turns into you finishing the whole thing and you cant seem to stop yourself. However I do have fellow members at group who can quite happily stop themselves after one or two. Christmas is especially one you have to be on your toes around all the chocolate tins and biscuits. Be careful but enjoy it at the same time.
I cant enjoy life whilst dietingOh believe me you can. This is ridiculous. The amount of nights out and meals out and girls nights in I have and enjoy you wouldnt believe. If I have had an event Ive just been on plan all week then just allowed myself to choose wisely on the event. Whether it be a chinese over an indian takeaway or diet coke and a spirit over a sugary WKD on a night out.
I hope this helps combat any excuses. If you think of anymore and need some ideas or anything in general feel free to contact me :) xx
