    Having done my 5000 steps a day for several months I have to have surgery on my stomach at the end of this month and will lose all effort I've put in - life is so unfair:rolleyes:


    Hesjane, that is terrible news, Im very sorry to hear that. My trainer has finally came through and did my first 4236 steps this morning (didn't have time to do 5000, would have been late for work!!)

    Gotta thank you for all your helpful suggestions with this, was actually quite fun, and will now set off my day (and hopefully rid of my belly) in the mornings much much better! :A

    Hope the op goes all well and good! :wave:

    ordered this one today

    Computer monitors: scan, time, count, total count and calories used. Unique twist movement helps trim inner thighs and tone outer thighs. Non-slip footplates. Adjustable step height.

    £34.99 plus p&p but used voucher from voucher board and had free p&p and £10 off so £24.99 :D

    this arrived 2 days ago and it's great, it came ready to use and is much sturdier than it looks in the picture, so far I've managed 900 steps in 10 mins and I'm going to build on that :D

    Great!
    It looks good...........does it do anything for your waist? Is there a twist involved?
    I ride my excercise bike regularly but need something to tone up my waist!

    I ordered one of these on 9 Feb with the discount voucher and free postage. I haven't received it yet (not bothered about that) but today received a statement from lx direct for the full amount plus postage. I want to take it up with the company but can find no record of the transaction or the original post about the discount voucher. Can anyone point me in the right direction please?
  • Thanks for all the posts, been great to have the input. I've ordered the one from LxDirect and used the voucher as suggested by 'Glad' . . only down side is the three weeks wait.

    I wonder if, while on the excercise topic anyone has bought one of these and if so can you please post coments http://www.powerballs.co.uk/ I am not associated in any way . . was sent the link today by a friend and am curious . . be great if there were vouchers to be had for them too

    Theres loads of the powerballs on ebay if thats any help. At a quick glance they were cheaper than on that site but i didnt check out postage. They sound interesting.

    Josey, have the same problem - mine was fine for a few weeks, then the monsters had a twiddle and it squeaks on low tension. Fine on the higher tension though which is odd.
