Add me, I'm in Canterbury too :)

Wow! You look SOOOOO much younger and healthier! Congrats on all your hard work!

Lol, I dont have any answers for you but I'm glad you posted the topic. I've been thinking about starting with some weights as it seems to be a good way to stay lean. I am pretty new to fitness, been pretty slack over the last 10 years. I currently do yoga 2-3 times a week and swim twice a week. I also walk my dogs every…

Yep, I like to be in control too, makes a big difference, a reason I could never take drugs!

I was an extrovert until I was bullied at school at age 10-12, then I became very distrustful of people and became a bit OCD and had panic attacks etc as a teenager. I'm an introvert but it's taken me most of my life to accept that's how I am and to stop trying to be something…

Huge changes, well done on all your hard work!

We have so much in common! Add me, here everyday and need the support :)

Havent seen the rhubarb and cherry version- they sound amazing! I have Sujon berries with a tin of Aunt bettys low fat rice pudding - it's a lovely treat and only 100 calories per tin (comes in a one portion size two so you're not tempted to go back for seconds!) Great topic! Getting heaps of ideas here people!

Bump. Love Indian food, missing my Friday night curry!
