I think you're very pretty and should tell them exactly where they can go. They're obviously very jealous of you and can't think of any way to make themselves feel better than to trash you. You have a cute button nose, gorgeously soulful eyes, and a beautiful smile. Obviously you have more to smile about than they do - I'm…

My son isn't at all-day school yet (he has another year of half-day nursery first) but we're already pretty much decided that he'll have packed lunches most (if not all) of the time. In order to get round the hot food issue, I'll be sending him to school with a hot food flask in which he can have soup or hot food - it will…

Wow! MrKennethJay - you have gorgeous arms on you! Nice face too - and I love a guy in glasses. Definitely a very strong 8. :)

1. I have two tattoos. One is the initial and birth date of my son (on my inner left wrist), the other is the Majesty symbol, which is the logo for the band Dream Theater (top centre of my back, between my shoulder blades, just below the base of my neck). if and when I have another child, their initial and date of birth…

Feel free to add me. :)

Prepackaged meals are full of all kinds of additives that you can avoid if you make your own ready meals. Whenever you cook, make at least one extra full portion and freeze it in an individual serving container. You can also do bulk batching - make a basic mince in tomato sauce mix, then use part as Bolognese, part for…

I love the look of a well toned female body - just some nice definition, but not super ripped as I thin kI just associate that with being quite masculine. I'm not bothered about having a visible 6-pack, but having a flat, nicely toned tummy would be wonderful as I've never had that.

I have ample chesticles (currently 36F). I used to be a 32DD. I'd be more than happy to go down to that again, maybe even slightly smaller - I want to stay in proportion. I don't want to lose them entirely (I rather like having big boobage!) but I don't want to look like I'm going to topple over from the weight of them…

I don't think there's any such thing as "too big to exercise" - you just have to find the RIGHT exercise for you. Swimming is a good, all-round, low-impact exercise that can be done by people of any shape or size. If you cant run - walk! Make sure you get out for a short walk at least once every day, even if it's just 15…

A few tricks I use: 1. Drink milk - it adds to your protein as well as your calories (I only drink skimmed, but even a 300mls glass adds 105 cals. 2. Use olive oil instead of low cal oil spray - just 15mls (1 tbsp) will add around 123 cals to your meal. 3. Houmous and peanut butter are your friends. Use them for dipping…

Which one? There are hundreds over here - different one for pretty much every town. :) For me, well, it doesn't matter where he comes from because I'm just going to tell him to shut up and kiss me - LOL!

Me! My baby will be 4-y-o at the end of September and I have a horrid saggy belly. It's a little smaller now than it was a few months back, but it's still there and I can't help thinking the only way to get completely rid of it is to get it cut off - LOL! Feel free to add me. :)

You. Look. AWESOME!!! :) *applause*

I'm finally off my month-long plateau and have hit the 32lbs down mark. :) Feeling a lot fitter and healthier all round these days. i LOVE going to the gym. I'm working up to lifting heavy - upper body is my weak area - I'm only up to 70lbs there, but lower body, some of the machines I'm lifting 120lbs. I'll be going…

Congratulations! I felt exactly the same when I got into the 100s - I actually did a little happy dance when I got off the scales! :)

Make the bulk of your menu fresh veg, with some fresh fruit thrown in to boot - you can have loads and it takes up very few calories. Make sure your carbs are complex ones, and make your protein lean (turkey is great - low fat and very tasty). Also, make sure your lifestyle is set correctly - you may not be as sedentary as…

Being fit, strong and healthy will be my ultimate reward, but my special treat to myself will be a brand new pair of New Rock boots. I have my eye on some seriously gorgeous steampunk boots and I've never been able to justify to myself the price of them, but I figure if I show enough dedication to shed 77lbs, then I am…

Count me in! :)

For me it's McDonald's, Burger King and KFC - all those kinds of places. I do not consider what they serve to be actual food and caanot stomach even the thought of biting into anything from those places, yet I see people mentioning it as a treat all the time. I cannot fathom it. I also hate Subway - those shops always…

I eat anything between 150g and 250g of carbs on any given day, and try to get in around 100g of protein (sometimes I get a little more, sometimes it's a fair bit less) and have dropped 30lbs since the end of February. I tend to burn around 400-500 cals per day on a rest day, and somewhere around 800+ cals on a work out…

My Mum's kind of like this but kind of the opposite. She's on a diet herself, but she's aparently restricted her calories to just 1100 a day (according to her - I know, I told her that's way too low, but would she listen?). Anyway, she drinks pepsi Max and adds powdered milk to her coffee - wasted calories on both counts…

A special limited edition copy of The White Queen by Philippa Gregory, signed by the author and numbered 276/750. It's the most beautifully bound book I won. They cost around £150.00 to buy, but I won mine in a competition run by The Book People. I adore it. It's just one of many author-signed books I own, but it's…

This is me after losing 25lbs (I've lost another 5lbs since then). It's a big difference from how I looked before.

1st thing in the morning, after toilet, before food, in the nuddy.

Apparently Marilyn used 5lb weights and ate a high protein diet (oh, and she didn't like ot tan - she didn't think it was particularly healthy!). http://glamournet.com/legends/Marilyn/monthly/shape1.html

That bikini LOVES you! :)

You look amazing! :)

I blog mine. I like to make sure I'm constantly stepping things up a little and pushing myself. I like to challenge myself to work harder, lift heavier and burn more calories all the time. :)

I love my NSVs more than seeing the number on the scales go down (even though I love that too!). At the moment I seem to have stalled on the numbers, but I'm seeing a difference in my body now - going ot the gym thre times a week and working out with weights as well as doing cardio is having a great effect on me. I've…

Feel free to add me too. I'm in the process of turning into a bit of a gym bunny and try to eat fresh fruit and veg whenever possible. So far I'm 30lbs down and have another 47lbs to go. :)
