Default motivation the cheating way

well its not really cheating its just well underhanded dirty and down right desperate. thats right motivation by saving money. bascially i park on the double yellows outside my house the gym opens at 8 which is the building right opposite me. (i live on capmus) and the traffic warden starts at 8. so i have to get up to avoid getting a ticket and the walk from the carpark back to my room is about 600yds so i just walk a little farther to the gym simple tactics a great motivator especially when you see the horrible jobsworth sat outside at 5 mins to 8 eyeing up all the cars and then the look of disghust on the face when you smile and drive away

i parked out side 3 days in a row and been up and in the gym at 8 or just after 3 days in a row and no parking ticket. i'm living so close to the edge i love it

No, this is neither cheating nor underhanded dirty!

This is clever.

I'm a teacher but I've always had a secret longing to be a wheel clamper... Traffic warden would be pretty good, too!

I know what you mean about beer and student life.... My nephew's only been at uni 1 term but has built a massive wall out of lager cans already. It must be hard going losing weight whilst you're a student but from your weight loss already, you've been doing great so more power to yer elbow! (Not your drinking elbow, though!)
