"Sleeker" Grin...

I wouldn't put it near your eyes- apparently the formula is different nowadays, and they took an ingredient out so it doesn't do much for puffy eyes any more (have a google). You'd be better dabb

Brilliant op :o

Try it again tomorrow.

TheWorldAccordingToJC · 14/07/2014 10:49

Hmm.

I don't start work until 2 tomorrow so could attempt cat litter then.

I do feel that someone else needs to step up now however

Magnificent thread. This is why I love MN. Who is doing the cat litter?

BrunoBrookesDinedAlone · 14/07/2014 10:48

Grin OP you are hysterical.

TheWorldAccordingToJC · 14/07/2014 10:46

I'm fishing the tube out the bin to try under my eyes.

Oi! I am not Bridget Jones. No pants of steel for a start.

I took several pics .. One of the conveyor belt in waitrose showing the cream being purchased and one of me wrapped up. Trouble is, it's just a revolting image. And I ' look' no different to the naked eye. The apron of fat is still there , obviously.

But I feel... Sleeker! That's the word! Lighter maybe? Skin feels softer.

It's not a miracle worker but the tape measure does not lie!

You can use Anusol to tighten up under eye bags as well ...

So I presume you won't be drinking a thing at your wedding?

You'll FAINT!

NannyPlumForPM · 14/07/2014 10:41

Oooooh erm...... 0.5 of an inch??

KatoPotato · 14/07/2014 10:41

This is like reading a bad chapter in a Bridget Jones book...

TWO inches !!!

I've done the exact same measurement in the exact same place.

So , Anusol plus cling film followed by a heavily salted bath has resulted in a two inch loss!

Obviously I know this is temporary and will all be back when I drink or whatever. BUT for a special occasion - why not ?

I can just see my OHs face when I announce I'm doing it on the morning of our wedding!

Onto lipo sculpt next... I'll report back!

Happy Anusol- ing!!

This is like the thread where the OP was adamant she was going to use the pressure washer to clean her bathroom! She would not be told!!

Go on, how much??

ihatethecold · 14/07/2014 10:39

You're so funny

Namechangearoonie123 · 14/07/2014 10:38

2 inches?

RunDougalRunQuiteFast · 14/07/2014 10:38

3 inches?

TheWorldAccordingToJC · 14/07/2014 10:36

OH MY GOD !!!!

Guess how much!

I took one measurement only around the fattest part of my stomach.. Like I said, I'm not overweight but I have that dreaded apron of fat thing going on and it's just pure revolting ' overhang ' that I hide in jeans usually.

Go on ... Guess! I've re measured in exactly the same place

TheFirmament · 14/07/2014 10:32

I'm lying on my bed with an entire tube of Anusol smeared over my stomach and god knows how many metres of cling film wound round me. I've made a nutri blast in the nutri bullet so today is all about HEALTH!

I have no idea what you are talking about but health isn't the word that springs to mind! Just drink some water have a salad and go for a nice run!

TheWorldAccordingToJC · 14/07/2014 10:25

Ha ha, very funny! I actually bought the Anusol in Waitrose in the end.. There was a choice of a tube of cream and suppositories so made the decision easy for me.

I've just got out of my hot salt bath and will dry off and measure in a few mins.

I'm feeling .... Sleeker! This may be in my head however

The tape will not lie

Anything yet? I'm sitting with my car keys in hand ready to bolt to boots before the rush.
