I WISH I LIKED BANANAS! could they be replaced with anything else? i don't like pumpkin either, i might sound really fussy but these two are probably the only foods i don't like haha

zumba 2 is AMAZING get it! i have the 1st one aswell and the 2nd is better by miles. its a person on the screen not a hologram(sp?) also it tells you how many calories you have burnt based on your technique (how many moves you get right) and your weight so i think its quite acurate. anyway i count rant on about this game…

I wouldnt say people here dont like the thin look. i just think that people like to be more curvy rather than muscley. my sister is a size 6, and she isnt curvy at all, we were eating at an all you can eat restuarant earlier tonight and so many "bigger" people were staring at her, to the extent that she felt uncomfortable…

I wouldnt say she looks anorexic or even skinny, but she still looks thin to me. Maybe a 3 on your scale. She definatley doesnt look overweight at all in my opinion.

reading other posts i realise that not everyone in the UK thinks she is "small" and not everyone in the USA thinks she is "big" ... fair enough she isnt very muscley or toned but i think shes a perfect size. i guess thats just my opinion tho :laugh:

Oh right, maybe i didnt read it properly :) Im still so shocked at the difference in views between two places!

i find it weird that you think she has "love handles" she looks thin to me!

yeah shes not "skinny" but shes small lol i said she looks like a size 10, im a size 12 and im not really big, im more of an average size id say. Its strange how different places have different views!

im from the UK too and agree she looks quite thin.. definatley a size 10!

yeah... shes hot!

Wow, thanks thats some great info, i didn't think it would work. Dont worry im not interested in doing it! Now, any idea how i can beat their weight loss? (if they lose any) :laugh:

i know its an issue only eating once during work, but im not allowed to eat my own food infront of the children, i work at a nursery. i only get one break at either 11.30 or 12.00. Im not even allowed to have a water bottle in the room, so i find it hard to drink a lot of water. It only takes me 20 minutes to walk to work…

oh wow you look so good. you should be proud!

zumba fitness 2 is a must have in my opinion, it tells you how many calories you have burned so its easy to log on here too :)

THIS IS JUST WHAT I WAS THINKING!

Also a lot of people seem to think i need to be out of work. I work at a nursery and will get free childcare from them when i go back to work, im not saying i plan to go back to work full time, im just saying i dont need to worry about childcare costs that much when my time does come to have a baby!

wow reading over these a lot of people seem to think we NEED to be married first. We have been together for 5 years and we definatley want to get married some day but i never thought we would NEED to be married before having kids. maybe a lot of you people are from a different country to me? im from the UK and around here…

This is a great comparison, i think i fall somewhere between the two of you. i personally couldnt imagine being 30 and still having no kids but i know there is no rush :) we'll just see what happens

his parents also laugh at me when i say "there are other things we need to do before having kids" they laugh and say il keep adding things to the list once something gets checked off. they had their first child (my bf) at 18 and they also have 2 girls, i think they are just very set in there ways and think everyone should…

Thanks everyone. For everyone saying i should babysit, i work in a nursery looking after 2year olds everyday, and i think this just makes it harder for me, i love the kids i look after at work and i guess it makes me broody lol. its so interesting to see everyones stories, i think its different for everyone and theres so…

Thanks for the comments everyone :) i know my bf and i will be together for a long time, were a good match and we have talked about marriage and having kids a lot, im thinking about it TOO much at the minute i guess :/ im not trying to figure out if i'm ready, because i know im not, i guess im just asking for other peoples…

i know im not ready im just confused as to why im not ready!! how do you know when you're ready though? thats the question thats puzzling me. ah well i guess its one of those things... you know when you know... il just have to wait and see haha!

i got Zumba fitness 2 for my wii. Was maybe a bad idea to try it out after dinner and alcohol. 20 minutes later i was covered in sweat with makeup all down my face.. not a pretty sight haha its a great game tho!

Occupation: Nursery Nurse Dream Occupation: ermm i love being a nursery nurse so its my dream job... but id like to get paid more than minimum wage for it! :D

this sounds like it would be good for my first challenge!

yeah sure :) its a good age to look after i think. The "terrible twos" haha

im from the UK too. Didnt think that many people were on here from the UK. I live in the North-East near Newcastle :)

im not a shortie, im a tall-ie haha but im from the UK and looking for motivation and friends too. Add me :) x

The only excercise i did before i discovered Zumba was playing on the wii in my house. Zumba is so fun i cant get enough of it, plus you burn a lot from it. Im not saying you should try Zumba, because it may not be your thing, im saying you should try different things until you find something you actually enjoy! :happy:

Me: 3 LNS: 3 ITS A DRAW!
