    Love the idea of a swimwear edition. It is summer after all :)

    Hmmm, swimsuit edition. I like. I like a lot. I told myself I wouldn't put one on unless I was in my 140s. So That gives me something to work toward. :drinker:

    I'm struggling to keep up with the weight loss and exercise at the moment, but I'm at least doing a plank a day and trying to up my time, so my belly doesn't quite literally go to pot!

    Bumping for later, missed the June challenge and working really hard on my core at the moment :)

    thought i might reinvigorate this with 10 days to go :D
    Yikes, good idea! I have been SO slack this month, nothing I can do will give me a bare-able belly, so I guess I'll just have to suck it up (or suck it in!).

    The "fat women in bikinis" thread made me think we should a) invite them here and b) have a swimwear edition next month!

    sounds good, im focusing on smashing out this month, then really powering through the next

    Just a nudge as there are only five days to go. I've been planking every day (thanks pound a week group!) and I've rediscovered my joy of running by just going out when the weather's nice and I feel like it so I'm not feeling beaten up by it.

    Ever wonder how your waist size measures up to the average? Check this out:

    At 34" I'm above the UK average and way over healthy :frown: But still the belly will come out!

    Perfect celebration Yanikca, looking fabulous, and very jealous of your sun!

    I'm afraid I'm going to have to take a rain check on this one due to unexpected family stuff. Will be back with you as soon as possible.

    I can't post my picture, home computer crashed :( and can't access any sites that will host the photos from work, but I did lose 1 inch so i count that as a win. :)
