What's the Best I can Do in 4 Weeks?

[MissWooWoo]

holiday coming up ...

I lost 23lbs last year with WW but stopped going for personal reasons, did gain a little over christmas but am now back to where I left off (thanks to particularly nasty tummy bug!).

I still have a fair amount to lose and realise that the most I can hope for in 4 weeks with WW is 10 lbs tops.

So my question is ... what's going to be the most effective exercise I can do to help "tone up" - can't get to a gym but have 2x2hrs free time during the week and some time at weekends.

Any advice (including dietry) greatly received

Anyooooooooooooooone?

I've just started running as its meant to be one of the best ways to shed fat and give you a toned look.
I started just over 2 weeks ago and I was huffing and puffing just after a min of running but yesterday I was able to run intervals of 4mins at a time.

Can you get to a park? You only need 1/2 hr 3 x a week

hello Kryptik!

I most definately can get to a park and have trainers too ... I have run a bit in the past (mostly gym based) in my slender size 12 days. Can you see a difference yet?

Am wondering if I should go for running or a home based workout (have Davina but rarely used) for quickest results?

Hi. I'm not sure if I've lost weight yet as I haven't weighed myself in ages til today but I'm positive that my thighs are a bit slimmer (jeans are a bit looser)

I'm going to get focused on diet now too.

I think for best results, stick to your ww plan but also restrict your carbs in the eve.
Run for 1/2 hr 3 times a week and do the Davina toning one a couple of times.

Can you imagine the improvement after all that for 4 weeks?! I'm going to do exactly this. I think it sounds like a brilliant plan.

right! let's do it! think I will dig out a too tight summer skirt (from a selection) and use this as an incentive.

Running starts tomorrow .. no child-free time today (honest guv)

Good idea. I think I'll take out a pair of jeans that I bought in a size smaller but have never worn.
I'm going to try them on once a week.

Can you do the dvd while at home with kid/s?

My toddler loves trying to join in while I do mine.

Drink lots of water too. It really helps.

I could try but after another (very) broken night's sleep I'm loathe to get up and give it a go now ... maybe try that next week if I haven't died from sleep deprivation
