Definitely no make up needed. Gorgeous pic and well done for all the hard work!

My mum lives near Bath so I've been to the Rec a few times, I'll support them as long as thy aren't playing against Irish :-) I love to watch but I've never actually played sadly though I've been thinking about starting. How much basic fitness do you guys think I would need to not actually die mid practise?

I could hug you guys who also discovered that they seem to be the fattest person on the planet (assuming I could get my giant whale flippers around you)! I think all us giants should move to Tonga and see if we can knock the planet off it's axis and change direction with our giant booty powers (closer to the sun for anyone…

That's a great result!

I guess you probably can't get it on BBC iPlayer?

I didn't think the first two games were that great to be honest. The Ireland Wales game was much more exciting though I was disappointed with the results being an Ireland fan

I seem to recall that there is an option in the food lists for 'buffet food', not sure how accurate it would be though. Just keep a rough track and log as best you can I guess

Wow, that's exciting about the superbowl! Great that you play with your daughter Em, that sounds fun

I just did day 1 of week 2 last night and didn't find it too bad at all. I am finding that my legs are hurting now though (I do it every other day) so I'm a bit concerned I might be getting shin splints. I'm actually quite enjoying the challenge though as long as I remember to take it slow - I'm not actually running much…

My dad was 6'3 and my mum is about 5'2 - I'm just scraping 5'5 and my 'little' brother is 6'2. Guess you can see where the genes fell in my family!

Merry Meet everyone! I'm Fiona and 'm in the UK. Also a solitary practitioner but I'm lucky to have many pagan friends some of whom are coven members. Always glad to meet more like minded people especially here where we're all sharing the same sort of goals! I lost about 40 pounds last year then ground to a halt in the…

I did pretty much the same thing. Joined MFP last year and lost about 2 and half stone then lost the plot a bit from November onwards (30th birthday then xmas). I'm really trying to get back into it all now and gewt motivated again! I'm trying to build back the good habits gradually but determinedly - so not beating myself…

I think that especially when it comes to weight, a lot of men are just terrified of saying the wrong thing. He probably thought that if he said 'let's workout together' you might have then said 'oh, so you agree that I'm really fat and need to lose a ton of weight then' - I'm sure you wouldn't have said anything of the…

The All Blacks are amazing

Wow, that's great. Well done

I had heard that it was getting more and more popular in the US but the article I read was more about men's teams. It's great that it's so popular for women too

Take careof yourself, sorry to see you go too but I understand your reasons. All the very best for your future x

That's pretty cool. I've never actually played myself but I keep thinking I should look around for a local women's team. It's something I aimfor when I manage to lose some weight and get my fitness up

Hi all, sorry I've been a bit quiet over the last couple of days. Trying to catch up on work stuff after being off sick! I don't think I'll be able to catch up with everyone's posts so apologies for anything I've missed. Welcome to all the new people - Helen I'm UK as well, I think most others on here are USA and Canada.…

Wow, great loss Smores, you deserve to feel proud of yourself! Welcome back Luki!

Congrats and good luck Dexters! I've just been put on antibiotics and told not to exercise for at least a few days :-(

Hi all, Sunds like a fab weekend Emily and an excellent Halloween Pam! Dexters - definitely two lines but as Pam says, what kind of test and what do you need to see? Welcome to the new people, good to see so many although I admit to struggling to keep up so bear with me! I was on the depo jab too and am just getting back…

Wow, that's just unbelieveable

Sorry to hear that Smores. Stephanie, I loved your list of things to be grateful for, it was just lovely. I know how you feel with all the pregnancies around you. I have a friend who is due on New Years Eve with her fourth. Although I kind of am happy for her, I also know that she struggles with the three she has already…

OMG Karen!!! That is the most amazing news, I'm so excited for you! Think I'll join Pam in that happy dance for you :happy:

Hi all, and welcome to the new people. Good luck with the tests Jalara! Hope you can have a well earned break when you're done. I'm glad you have a decision on the IVF, I'll be thinking positive thoughts for you too. Smores, I'm not a medical professional (well I am but in mental health) so I wouldn't want to give you…

Hi all, just a quick check in - I did write a long post on Friday morning but then my beloved cat stepped on the power button of my laptop, turning it off and deleting the whole thing! Things are a bit tough at the moment, my OH is having a terrible time at work and has been really quite depressed. Then as he was driving…

clicked..............cute dog!

You're absolutely right Pam, thanks. Congrats on the confirmation Julia, really thrilled for you! Hope we all see you on the other board soon!

Fingers crossed for you Julia! Thanks for the challenge Pam, that sounds like fun. I've never seen a squash like you describe in the markets here, I can't usually get anything other than butternut. I will have a think about something new this week though. I'm working late tonight and tomorrow and possibly rehearsing over…
