    I put on half a pound again this week. That's 2 weeks in a row, and this week it is bothering me ALOT! really thought I had lost and with the amount I am doing at the gym am very disappointed!
    Real men never follow instructions; after all they are just the manufacturer's opinion on how to put something together. :p

    Congrats to all the losers. It looks like I'm being a once in a blue moon poster too. Actually I'm too embarrassed to report my failure. Decided on day one to do 15 mins on the trampoline, which was fine at the time, then spent the next 3 days in agony. Haven't lost an ounce - there must be loads of calories in Ibuprofen:rotfl:.
    I think I need a more definite plan. I shall read back through the thread for more inspiration:D.
    I have plenty of willpower - it's won't power I need.
  • Hello

    Cornflakes for bfast
    lunch, samosa and bhargi
    dinner will have that salad.
