until I go on holiday.

Since we booked the holiday (in March) I've been planning how I'm going to lose weight, get my skin glowing and look gorgeous on the beach for DH.

Unfortunately I didn't make it past the planning stage so is there anything I can do over the next week to make me look at least vaguely healthy? Is it worth drinking gallons of water or will it make bugger all difference to my tired skin now?

It certainly won't do any harm. Drink lots of water and if you can do it suggest doing a liquid only detox, lots of fruit juices and soup (homemade) - know it's not viable in lots of circumstances, I had to take a week off work to do my detox

Also, you could have a contour wrap if you have the cash. If you have 3 treatments you can go down a dress size but one treatment lost me 18 inches all over and it's a detoxifying treatment and leaves your skin feeling great.

We have decorators and carpenters all over the house at the moment so DD is hard enough to control - I need my food this week Will drink lots of water though

Thanks.

Ooo - meant to say I had a series of wraps years ago. I lost a total of about 4 inches and got very spotty

Really? That's very surprising! I love them, miss them now I'm pregnant.

Universal Contour wraps are the ones I have and never heard of anyone having problems - often down to brand with these things.

Understand the need for food when builders are in, very stressful! In that case, just drink what water you can and try (being the operative word) to get as much sleep as poss and when it comes down to it, sod it, just enjoy your hols

I'm beginning to think that way. Let's face it, it's Christmas just after we get back so I'll get healthy in the new year

Will look into those wraps in the New Year.
