What is your favourite American-ism?
I love the way Americans name things differently to the English. I know we are probably just as funny with our little phrases and sayings but what are your favourite Americanisms? Mine are: Barf = sick fanny pack = bum bag

naughty NSV
This is a bit of a naughty NSV but it felt sooooooo great! For the first time in nearly two years I had the confidence to send an "interesting" couple of pictures to my hubby whilst he was at work today. His response "wow you look great babe" I am sure you can figure the rest out. LOL

Meanies?
9 times out of 10 this site is full of positivity but does anyone else find it a bit mean and discouraging to see so many "closed" groups? Surely everything on here is open and free. Seems to be lots of this happening lately. Feel a bit sorry for the noobies!

30DS Vs 6 week 6 pack
Does anyone own BOTH of these DVDs? I am five weeks into 6 week 6 pack and am thinking of purchasing the shred but just want to know which one is harder? I have found 6W6P hard but definitely worth it.

It's all so confusing!
I'm getting so confused reading all these different opinions and articles on things like when to exercise in the day, what to eat before and after exercise, whether to just do weights and nO cardio, whether to eat exercise calories etc etc... The closer I get to my ultimate goal the more i want to do things correctly but…

Your best NSV? (non-scale victory)
I recently fitted into over half of my pre-pregnancy wardrobe, more specifically a VERY EXPENSIVE Karen Millen Dress (see profile pic) that I point blank refused to sit back and never wear again. Very exciting! What is your best NSV since you started losing weight? I love a success story!!

Does anyone else feel sorry for some of the ppl on here?
I am not being funny but lately (today especially) I have encountered some really rude, aggressive people on here. Considering this website is supposed to be a bit of fun and a safe way to lose weight I just don't understand why some people come on here to be hurtful or aggressive. I just have to take a step back and think…

Stretch marks...
Ok so I have nearly lost all of my baby weight and my confidence has bounced back. HOWEVER.... I have some unsightly stretch marks that wont budge. To be honest, they don't bother me as much as I thought they would as I thought I would hate the sight of them but who wouldn't want them to disappear or at least fade…

where do your scales call home?
My scales have to live under the bed until my fortnightly weigh in or else I get obsessed. Once I weigh, I weigh in the EXACT SAME SPOT every time. If I put the scales on carpet I get a different reading to when they are on flat laminate flooring. Even then, if I put them in a different spot on the floor the reading can…

40lbs down...only 5lb to go!
When I had my daughter in October I felt huge, I had put on 3.5stones (45lbs) and that the weight gain AFTER she came out!
