You are fantastic and inspirational :D

I have gotten alot of great recipes from the following site: http://www.skinnytaste.com/ I hope this helps :) Bon Appetit

I took advantage of the Irish sun too on Saturday. I had Aloe Gel which was great but they also do a product called Aloe 1st which is a spray and gives instant relief. I use it for everything from midgey bites to sore throat. We are up for more good weather so enjoy :)

Wow!! You look amazing and soooo young. Here's to a bright future ahead :drinker:

You look fab. Fair play to you. You should be very proud of yourself. Here's to your good health:drinker:

You look fantastic. Well done :) Being polite about your family, they are just not used to the new you. If they had seen you every day while you were shaping up, nothing would have been said. You look so Happy and Healthy. Stay as you are going. :flowerforyou: Oh and my Mam's favourite saying (F**k the begrudgers)

I cook brown rice in a large glass dish with fitted lid in the microwave. 1 cup rice, 2 cups water. Microwave for 13 mins and then leave to stand for 20 mins. Perfectly cooked every time. For something different, I added cumin seeds and then some frozen peas for the last 4 mins cooking time.

Same here

Hi. This is a Jamie Oliver recipe which is fast, tasty and not stodgy http://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/chicken-recipes/quick-crispy-chicken-with-tomatoes-asparagus You could serve this with baked sweet potato wedges and normal potato wedges too You could also look on the website Skinnytaste.com . There are great recipes…

I agree. I do Jillian Michaels No More Trouble Zones with 3kg weights and enjoy it!

This is exactly what has happened to me. I hope you are right !!!

I have the same collection. Love them all but for the last month I have been doing No More Trouble Zones as I love the weights. Banish Fat Boost Metabolism I liked for the cardio and weight loss but my knees didn't agree :( Enjoy the burn :)

I joined My Fitness Pal last June. My tracker is incorrect by the way, I am at goal since December after losing 21lbs. I wanted to lose weight but not drastically change my lifestyle as I needed to find a way to eat, drink and exercise in a way that I can sustain this for life. I lost weight while still drinking wine, etc.…

When I was at your stage, I started Jillian Michaels 30 day shred and it toned away all the bumps for me :) You can watch it from Youtube so it won't cost anything except 20 mins a day. I skipped the weekends by the way. Best of luck

Wow. Fantastic results, you look fab. Congrats on getting back on track after your pregnancy (congrats on new baby too). Thank you for sharing :flowerforyou:

You look amazing. I didn't know planks could be so effective. Thank you for sharing :flowerforyou:

Wow. You look amazing and so pretty. What an achievement. Thanks for sharing :flowerforyou:

Your VO2MAX is calculated to be 47 and your estimated "fitness age" is younger than 20 Now THAT'S made my day :drinker:

Wow. You look amazing. Thank you for sharing and inspiring so many :flowerforyou:

You are amazing. Your lovely happy face says it all too :flowerforyou: Here's to a happy long and healthy life :drinker:

I couldn't have written it better myself. I feel exactly the same even though I do not log from Friday after 3 til Monday morning. It's definitely burning me out mentally. I'm going to keep weighing myself once a week and if I start gaining, then I'll be back :)

Wow !! You look fab. That can't have been easy :)))

Fair play to you. That took some courage for you to do and your gorgeous smile says it all. Best of luck on your journey :flowerforyou:

Tess - #1971 Year I was born....spooky :)))

This has inspired me. I'm now 150.5lb and my measurements are 38 30 39.5 goal weight is 140lb so would love to get down to a 28" waist

You look absolutely fabulous. Brag and brag some more. You deserve it all after your hard work. So happy for you. Thanks for the inspiration :flowerforyou:
