  • I have a problem with tea towels. I get through loads of kitchen paper because of this. I think it might be damp cloth that bothers me because I'm very specific about how I do laundry and I can't have anyone else do it for me. So if a friend borrowed a top and washed it, I'd put it straight back in the basket to wash…
  • Mine is set up so that people who aren't on my friends list can only see the Lolcat but people who are can click on my photos to see my face. (Well I hope that's how it's set up because that's how I prefer it!) I honestly don't mind what people's pictures are of - we're here to see the healthy foods, exercises and the…
  • I did it 30 times with breaks and that suited me. Can't imagine doing it every day - I'd be hallucinating!! :explode:
  • :smile: It will!! When I did it I thought I was dying so I went back to level 1 for a few days then back to 2. It got better.
  • I have no idea about skin firming creams but I did have a big burn scar (hungover cooking accident) on my stomach and also stretch marks on my stomach and the tops of my thighs and Lush Dream Cream helped to fade them. It took years but it did work. I think Palmers Cocoa butter is also meant to be good for that sort of…
  • Nutella - I'll eat the whole jar.
  • I'm from the Uk! And I'm not going either :smile:
  • I've been getting really strong mature cheddar - that way I feel like I'm getting more cheesyness for the amount. You could maybe buy it in slices which is more measured and fill it up with salady type things.
  • I would say give it a go and listen to your body. She gives modifications - when I did it I sometimes did something else instead of the planks because I hurt my wrist half way through (not from exercise) and I still got good results. Also have a day off every so often - I did it 30 times rather than every day for 30 days.…
  • Eeek I hope it works!! It definitely works for me. A few weeks away from the coke and my legs are much better. I had cellulite down to my ankles until I was 25 and first started drinking it.
  • I find mine improves if I stick to green tea (I have a bit of a diet coke problem so it takes a lot of willpower) I'm on about 2 pots per day and I also drink fruit tea. I still have it but I have to squeeze more to see it. It comes back if I get back on the coke again. The creams can't really reach down far enough to get…
  • :smile: Good work!!
  • I have been known to log that sort of thing as Dancing...but then I always log the Drinking that happened too
  • I've had to tighten my bra straps as I've lost a few cm from my bust and ribcage measurements but they seem to have got higher since I've been doing the 30 day shred as I think it's strengthened my pecs underneath a little. If that makes sense!! My cup size is DD
  • Fat takes up less space for the same amount of weight. What the phrase means is that you can have two people who weigh the same, but if one has more muscle mass, that person will be slimmer.
  • I haven't done it every day but so far I've done it 27 times and I count each day I do it as a day. That's because I've stayed at a friend's a few times and couldn't do it at hers and also because I had an injury (unrelated) so I had two weeks off but I would have had a couple of days off somewhere anyway. I also didn't…
  • I track them all - partly so people can see how many I'm getting and partly because my appetite is huge and a lot do have a decent amount of calories. If you get at least 5 portions it can add up. However I'm less careful on the scales with fruit and veggies - if something's over by a few grams I just record 100g or…
  • Step away from the icing!!!
  • I think we could get something pretty huge if we all had a whip round :smile:
  • I love her too!! I want to buy her a christmas present :heart:
  • Do you measure? The only thing that keeps me going is my spreadsheet with the numbers on it and the fact that my jeans are starting to hang off me because I go literally weeks without losing on the scales. I lost nothing for a couple of months then 9lbs really fast. That was quite a while ago and the scales haven't budged…
  • I can't stop laughing at this - it's true though isn't it?!?! For the first few days I had to pause between circuits for a lie on the floor and cry but I'd recommend it to anyone and I keep doing it..... I think there might be subliminal messages in the music....
  • :smile: I'm in the UK and got it off Amazon. I'm near the end now and I have Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism on the way to follow. Both Jillian Michaels. If you look in the success stories people have posted photos of their results. I can't bear to post a picture of my belly and I don't think mine will be as dramatic as most…
  • Hi, I'm sending you an add. I'm similar to you - my worst bits are my pot belly and bingo wings. I have firm legs and not much of a bum but DD cup boobs so it's all at the front. I did used to be quite hourglass shaped though - just slightly top heavy. It takes work!! I'm doing the 30 day shred at the moment and even…
  • Glad to hear it and that you're feeling more positive :happy:
  • Mine is 40 inches and weighs 1kg. It cost about £17 online which I think is about $25? I know the cost is no help to you as I'm in the UK but I'd definitely say get one, when I first did it I could feel it in my abs afterwards like I'd been doing LOTS of sit ups and it's quite good fun. The weight and the size definitely…
  • How many do you have? I used to have about 6 cans per day then I got into green tea - it takes some getting used to but it starts tasting nice. So I'd substitute one or two towards the end of the day so I'd have cokes in the morning and green tea in the afternoon now I'm at the point where I can have green tea all day. I…
  • I'm veggie too. I made curry yesterday with cauliflower, peppers, aubergine, onions, spinach, cannellini beans, chickpeas and lentils. I would normally have potatoes in it but I used pulses instead because I'm trying to get plenty of different sources of protein and it was yum :smile: I make a big pan of something and…
  • Even Sigourney Weaver was bad in this one. I have a card that I pay monthly so I get in to as many films as I like and I still regret watching it!! The Twilight films put me right off the books. Also the fact that I think the dad's hot rather than the vampire....
  • Don't beat yourself up about it - you're doing really well - it's a tough workout.
