    Yikes, two days to go! With terrible timing I've just returned from holiday where I ate a 100% fried food and alcohol diet and put on 3lbs :blushing: But this isn't about "after" photos, it's all about body confidence, fitness and how far we've come with MFP. Bellies ahoy!

    Last day to get a preparatory workout in! I'm opting for Tae Bo, or maybe Body Combat if I manage to book a place tonight. After all, I'm bound to get a six pack like the girls in the DVD, right?

    Psyching myself up for this! So, let me get this straight....are we supposed to be posting a piccie of our tummy straight after a workout or whilst working out, only that could be tricky, there's no way I'm asking a stranger at the gym to photograph me? :laugh: With a 'before' piccie?

    Before, during or during, whatever suits, the only condition is you must do at least some of your workout with your navel getting some fresh air!

    I may end up just doing a sweaty picture in the mirror, though I'm slightly tempted by the "stranger at the gym" option just because I'd like to see just how bad I look working out :laugh:

    You guys look AWESOME! Such big changes, well done!

    Ok, here goes!

    These were jan/feb/march this year before and afters for shred and ripped

    And this was today! The gardener at the park got a good look as I ripped off my top to do my hill work! Still got a fair bit of extra skin there, and my many many stretch marks, but stuff it, I'm doing this for the mums!

    Complete with the bubbas prams in shot!
