Emily’s first week using Slendertone

Monday 30th March: Have just received my slendertone unit and it is currently charging at work. I am quite excited but also very nervous about using this product. People at work, after seeing the first time blogs / videos really want me to try it out first at work so that they can all get a giggle, I am thinking about it….

I am quite unsure about how this will work this week as I really want to get a routine and stick to it. I am off to Amsterdam for work on Wednesday morning, which also happens to be my birthday and I am wondering weather I can wear it on the journey to the airport and then on the plane, let’s see if the 4 o’clock wake up changes my mind.

I was nervous that I didn’t have the unit on correctly but then once my muscles started having a disco without the music I knew it was on correctly. I started at 23, 23.

Tuesday 31st March: The second time I used the belt was a lot easier, not having to find and check I had correctly used the pads. I used it while getting ready in the morning and the only difficulty was finding a place to put the computer part. Maybe an arm strap could be considered? I cannot see or feel any difference yet but i have faith. I almost think I can see my sides toning up but I am not sure.

Sunday 5th April: I am afraid on Wednesday 1st April, I had every good intention of using my belt for the next 3 days giving myself the weekend off. Unfortunately I was sent home with an early flight from Amsterdam with either food poisoning or a bug so the last thing on my mind was to use the belt. Although after my weekend of relaxing and slowly getting my belly back into eating, I used it on a lower setting of 20:20 to make sure I used it as much as I could in the first week.

Monday 6th April: Using the belt this morning was exciting as I had missed using it properly; I used it back on 23:23. Thinking tomorrow will be better as I will be able to increase it. Looking forward to starting again and doing 5 days in a row without the sickness.
