In a vain attempt to get some kind of stomach back after recently having my 3rd baby, i decided I might need some moral support.

My plan is I am going to do 20 sit-ups every day this week - it should take 5 minutes? Should be able to fit it in somewhere during the day.
Next week 30 a day, weeks after 40 etc.
I am going on holiday on the 1st august, I would love to be able to go and buy myself a really nice well fitting bikini to take with me.
So if anyone would like to join me so we can give each other some support - then please do!

K, so I'm doing this stomach exercise I saw in fabulous magazine and it is really effective. You start with the plank (elbow one) then you lower right hip to the floor...straighten...lower left hip to floor...straighten. Then repeat...

Very hard but VERY effective.
