It's crazy- isn't it? When I was a size eighteen I remember distinctly going into Asda after a new pair of jeans- I tried on four different styles. Some fit me in a size eighteen, one wouldn't fit unless it was a twenty, one I could barely squeeze into the twenty- and another I looked good in a size sixteen! Like you, I…

I'd love to get into an eight to ten as that's the size that my Mum's wedding dress is. I'm a 12-14 at the moment dependent on the shop/cut, however on that note I will land where I land clothing wise once I've stopped wobbling all over! I've got a rough goal weight I'd like to reach, but to be honest with you, it's more…

I don't have a treat everyday, as I'm a firm believer that if it's an everyday occurrence it's no longer a 'treat'. So, we have take out night once a month (my guilty pleasure), and every Saturday night we have a bottle of cider plus chocolate between two. That's not to say I don't have anything sugary sweet during the…

Afraid I'm on the opposite end of the stick (I graduated last week), however good on you for getting started! It's a fantastic program, and it's certainly changed my life. I really struggled with week one initially, being very unfit (much like you), however I'm now training for a 10k run and feeling a lot fitter for it!…

I just went out with the speed interval podcast. I have to say, it's lovely to have Laura back! She guides you through it completely (giving you the pace of 1-2-3-4), and definitely pushes you hard for those six intervals. If anybody hasn't read the synopsis, it's six runs of 1 minute at 155 BPM, six runs at (1 minute…

Just remember, if you have any local supermarkets, hit the shelves a few hours before they closed for the reduced section. You can often find cheap fruit/veg in there! I spend about on average £20 for two people per week buying mainly fruit and veg (plus bits like lentils, chic peas etc) and we buy our meat mostly from the…

I've got a sheltie and a rough collie- I think we lucked out though with our pair! I've been told my boy is one of the most laid back sheltie's most people have ever met, and my rough collie is just a big, clumsy gentle oaf most of the time. Pixel (sheltie) is my profile picture. I'll have to upload a picture of Eira at…

Have you had a look at Amazon/Ebay for the Borilla? It will cost you a pretty penny to have it shipped, but it might be worth it if that is the pasta that you want. The only other thing I can suggest is to get down to your local Hollands and Baretts if you've tried the Supermarket brands, they do a spelt pasta there, or…

Honestly, I'd say it all depends what you're going for. You're in a healthy weight bracket for your BMI (24- so only just mind), so I'd say no- you're not fat! If you wanted, you could certainly go further and get leaner, but by the same merit, if you are happy at that weight then I'd possibly lose a few more pounds to get…

What you need to do for the next week is find out what the closing hours are at all your local co-ops, tescos, asdas etc. Then you need to get there about two hours or so in advance, and find out when final reductions are. If you can get there at the right time- you will find reduced bread, fridge bits and more for all…

I'm hoping posting here will keep me going too Elwood! :) It's lovely to read about everybody else's successes I have to say! Jewels- Just keep going, and don't be afraid to think outside of the box for exercise. So, if you have a free afternoon, perhaps do a spot of volunteering- not only are you helping the community,…
