Good morning lovely ladies :-)

Hope you are all having a good week so far. I did weigh in today and lost 3/4 lb.. yes i am counting every little quarter lb!! I was really hoping for more as i have been pretty darn good especially cutting out the wine which has been torture !!
But my post baby paunch is definitely shrinking... !
I am going to try this drinking lots of water malarky !! if only it were the same principle with wine... x

Hi Guys

Well I did the "Vicky Entwistle - Wow! Weight Off Workout DVD " last night. & it is a good workout. Particularly as I've been doing my mini stepper 5 nights a week for the past 4 months ...I thought I would find it easier than I did. Iwas sweating afteer the warm up !! & I really felt the after effects of the leg exercises this morning!

I would deffo recommend it.

StrawberrySnowflakes · 06/02/2007 13:04

well done every1 else on the losses! x

Joby1970 · 06/02/2007 13:33

Congrats SSflakes - its always nice when you get a compliment & ignore photos they always look different than the real you (well thats what I tell my self!!)

Go for it BendyB - its a sad but true fact that exercise works ... I am definatly looking slimmer than when I have been this weight b4 & thats all to do with regular exercise.

StrawberrySnowflakes · 06/02/2007 13:36

BigHotMama · 07/02/2007 10:27

Hi

Lol at doughnut Sparkler

I lost 2lbs this week but only lost what I put on last week 9.5lbs total and about 4-5 stones to go. Am finding it soo hard since having my ds. Must try do more excercise, got the davina dvd workout still in the box from 2 wks ago! And am going to drink more water. Did more red days last week and thoroughly enjoyed having tasty bacon for breaky and tuna salad on toasted pitta yummmmm!

karenj1980 · 07/02/2007 10:29

hi bhm

i have found it so much harder after dd1. since march i have lost 32.5lb and this is very slow for me. but keep with it, it will come off, just possibly a lot slower than before.

i am 12lb away from what i was on my wedding day but i feel huge compared to then! I guess our body's change a lot after babies.

Good luck - 4 stone in a year is possible

karenj1980 · 07/02/2007 10:30

still another 4 stone to lose as well though x

starfairy · 07/02/2007 10:38
