  • I started Bikram yoga 2 weeks ago and was hooked after my first session. I'm in the UK, and most places seem to do an introductory price of £30 for 30 days unlimited.

  • The same is true of full sugar coke, and in fact can be used as a degreaser. Personally, I do tend to drink water. I don't personally like diluting cordials and most fizzy drinks, but I am partial to the odd can of diet coke now and then. As others have said, I don't like the taste of most full sugar drinks.

  • I'm on day 3 and so far, so good x Would be great to have some like minded people to help boost this weightloss journey Trish
