Are you on the Pill and do you have good muscle tone?
Hi, just wondering if you think being on the contraceptive pill effects your body fat content? If you have successfully lost weight and been on the pill and have also managed to develop muscle tone please could you post a picture? I really think it effects the way your muscle develops but I could be wrong. Thanks!

Big headed post maybe (but not meant to be)
I went away last night and stayed in a hotel room which had a lot of mirrors in it, including a full length one.

I was shocked, I don't have the perfect body by ANY means but…

Wedding stuff - Hog Roast anyone? (UK)
