LOSING FOR LOVE
CONT.
Using a Personal Trainer
For added motivation, support and to help you stay
on track with your fitness and weight loss goals, it
can pay dividends to use a personal trainer.
As Evelyn Druro, assistant fitness manager
and personal trainer at Eastwell Manor
(www.eastwellmanor.co.uk) says: “It is never easy to lose
weight without being content with your own plan.
However, that shouldn’t be too hard if you have a
good plan and you enjoy the journey. Everyone is
different – from body shape and composition to
preferred exercises and eating habits. But having a
well-planned programme can help you to feel
amazing for your wedding.
“As a personal trainer, I have seen many
people who could easily get in shape without making
too many changes – perhaps lowering their carb
intake slightly, or adding some extra cardio to their
workout routine before the wedding. On the flipside,
I have seen those who have struggled for the first
few days to exercise more and eat better, but after
that it gets easier.
“The biggest truth is, if you want to lose weight you
need to eat fewer calories and move more. But it’s
not always that easy.”
Everyone is an individual and there is no set time
limit as to when you will reach your goals. Everyone
has a different journey, which could take from as
little as 4 weeks up to 6 months. Having a personal
trainer allows you to have a well-designed and
continuous workout and eating plan, designed
specifically for you and what you want to achieve.
Having them by your side, also helps keep up your
motivation and means you have a ‘buddy’ to support
and help you through the highs and lows.
But as Evelyn points out, commitment is crucial.
“Don’t forget that the “Big Day” is just a day – and
your real journey starts after that. Keeping yourself
fit, and eating healthy and nourishing food, will
make you feel better for longer. If you want help,
come and see us in Eastwell Manor, where we offer
our special Champneys Younique PT programmes,
and promise you the best way to get in shape for the
most “unique day” in your life.”
all the stress and worry out of a pre-wedding
diet. By choosing either five, six or seven days’ worth
of food, worrying about what you eat is a thing
of the past, leaving you with more time to plan for
the big day.
