Me please. Bought the DVD for a second time as I lost the first one and have been meaning to set a date to start again! Will measure and take some pics tomorrow. It's 28 days until my work Christmas do - so I need something to kick me up the backside! :-)
-
I'm in! Got a 5km charity run at the end of the month, so this will help me prepare
-
No. I've thought about it ALOT in my life, I've always had small boobs (between a 34B and 36A, sometimes an AA :-() but after having my daughter I've realised that I should just be happy with what I've got. There's nothing medically wrong with me- and any person shallow enough to not like/love me because I've got small…

Me - 15 to go. It's hard - because you're not 'fat', and you don't look *too* bad, so it's easier to tell yourself that one take-out wont matter...
-
I've been thinking about it for ages too (health reasons) but it's sooo much easier to keep eating 'normally', and I've got a toddler who I'd be too scared to make 'vegan' just in case I didn't get the right amount of protein etc into her (plus she'll eat fruit until it's coming out of her ears but will only eat one veg -…
-
Family life has hot in the way and I've not done the 30DS for 3 days now :-( I'm going to struggle to fit it in before we go on holiday this Friday, so I've taken the decision to just wait until we get back and then start from the beginning again. Good luck to you all! Make sure you update with pics and measurements so I…

Day 5 done! I feel like I'm OWNING this now (kinda, I still struggle with the girly pushups and the side lunges) but I feel so much stronger and capable during the rest of it. I've stopped aching too Well done to all the shredders today!
-
L1D4 done! Wasn't too bad tonight, I managed better-quality girly push ups and felt slightly better during the side lunges. But, I won't have time to do it tomorrow as I'm going out as soon as I've put LO to bed (plus I've got a tooth abcess which I know is going to be giving me serious pain by tomorrow). So I'll need to…
-
Not feeling as sore today, which I'm taking as a very good sign. I'm looking forward to D4L1 tonight! Although I've got a nasty cough at the moment and my lower abs ache so much when I cough Anyone else a little bit annoyed that they aren't a skinny toned babe yet?! lol SOoooooooo impatient.....
-
L1D3 done! Not as tough as yesterday - I managed around 19 girly pushups instead of 4 and managed the whole 1st set of side lunge ones without having a rest.
-
Started off atrociously today - managed about 4 girly pushups because the muscles near my armpits (pecs?) literally wouldn't hold me up! I've always had rubbish upper body strength though, so I'm not expecting miracles too quickly. Still had to give up on the last 2 dumbbell raises on the side lunges though. OUCH! Well…
-
I had to literally grunt 'eeeuugghhhhh' as I was lifting the weights up towards the end. It was really tough! Starting to feel more and more sore as the day progresses....
-
Well I don't feel too sore today, which has worried me. Maybe I'll push myself a little bit harder tonight. Does anyone else worry that they aren't doing the exercises right? I'm rubbish at lunges - especially the side ones, it's like my legs wont do what I want them to. I have to really focus on not letting my knee go…
-
Oh my god! I can barely hold my iPhone up to write this!! I'm so exhausted, although it wasn't *quite* as horrible as I thought it would be. Those side lunges with dumbbell raises are pure EVIL Well done to everyone who's shredded today :flowerforyou:
-
So.... I've just put my daughter to bed, I'm going to quickly tidy the house and then stick the DVD on. Mega nervous about how hard it's going to be! I'm really not in the mood for it, I've had a tough day at work, eaten like a pig and my daughter is cutting two teeth and has been draining me all afternoon, but I'm…
-
Count me in! I'm on holiday for a week from the 24th and I was planning on starting after that, but why wait? I'll try and do it while I'm on holiday but if not I'll just do a few extra days on whatever level I'm on. I'll take pics and measure tonight. I'm also doing C25K so I'm hoping I'm not too sore to keep doing…
-
I got my DVD the other day, but I'm not starting for a while yet because I've just started the C25K, and I want to get a bit fitter by doing that before I even attempt the 30DS! I'm also going on holiday at the end of the month so wont be able to do the DVD. I'm so excited to start! Must dig out my weights and see what…
-
Which part of Kent will you be in?
-
I started W1D1 yesterday :smile: I first used C25K about 3 years ago, and the first day nearly killed me! I've had a two year break due to pregnancy and then not having enough time to run whilst looking after my daughter - but I've decided that I'll make time, it's important for my health. However, it might be a bit…

Hi everyone I've been MIA for a couple of weeks - baby is being seriously hard work! She's started sleeping a bit better now (only 2-3 wakings instead of 6-8!) so hopefully I'll get back on track. That said, I met my goal for August and lost an extra lb too! I'm officially a healthy BMI for the first time in over a year!…
-
James - well done! Mat - feeling fitter is definitely a good thing, even if the scales don't change. I had an off-track weekend - always happens when the boyfriend is off work because our routine goes out the window! So I've only lost 0.75 of a lb this week - but a loss is still a loss, right? I've still got a week to lose…
-
Yvonne - congratulations! That's fab! Plantpot - what does the detox entail? I'm thinking of doing one. Good luck with it x Kpnuts - I ate a big bar of galaxy yesterday. Oh the shame! I wasn't hungry after though so didn't have dinner, so I was under my cals for the day - but not the healthiest ways to go about it! I've…
-
Hi Ms_Natalie & Mairiki! :flowerforyou: I lost 2.5lbs this week! Yay! I wanted to reach 155 this month which takes me to a BMI of 25, so I've only got 1.5lb to go until I reach it. Which means I'll hopefully be in the 10 stone range by the end of the month! So excited! :happy:
-
Try oats/porridge - they really help with milk production. Loads of water, fenugreek can help but it takes a few days to increase supply. I hope you figure it out x
-
That sounds like a fab detox! What did it involve? I was thinking about doing one, but probably just fruit, veg, rice etc - can't be too drastic because of the breastfeeding. Mat - I've not had a graze box but I've seen them advertised. The company sends you a box of healthy snacks (dried fruit, nuts etc) and the idea is…
-
uf353432 & Sim247 - exact same reasons as me. I'm hoping to wait until 6 months to wean my daughter and I really want to do Baby Led Weaning (no purees, straight onto finger food. You just give them what you have to eat) so I need to improve my diet by then. I don't want her eating some of the rubbish I do! I'm awful at…
-
Queenmedusa - good luck for your weigh in! Sounds like youve been burning some serious calories! My day wasn't so great. We ended up being out all day and starving at 2pm with the baby asleep in the car - so had McD's drive through. I'd love to say I got the salad; but I didn't! Chicken nuggets, med fries & diet coke. I…
-
Hi- I'm breastfeeding my 4 month old daughter. She's not interested in food at the moment so I think it will be a while before we start to wean. I've still got about 12lbs to lose to get to pre-pregnancy weight; but ideally I'd like to lose an extra 6 to take me to 140lbs. I find that I lose more when I eat more - loving…
-
I was so good last night! My boyfriend ordered take out pizza (his diet is awful!) which isn't a problem for me because I don't really like take out pizza- too much rubbery cheese - but instead of delivering his mozzarella sticks, they delivered onion rings- which I love! I was eating a yogurt and was already slightly over…
-
Wizzywig - it's probably just water weight. I went to Prezzo last night and couldn't resist a risotto and garlic bread. Oops! I went with some friends and one has lost 2 stone since having her second child and she looks fab. My new aim is to think WWFD (what would friend do) before eating anything. I really admire her…
