Welcome Micron,
It's great to have you on the thread, of course you can join. Bob Hope might have said that 'middle age is when your age starts showing on your middle', but on this thread we are going to defy gravity. Life and a super toned body can begin after 40
.
Have you seen Elle Macpherson recently? She was on Jonathon Ross earlier in the week and looked phenomenal. I couldn't believe she was 48.
Bye for now.I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.0 -
Ooh, I tried the grapefruit diet about 20 years ago - I never liked grapefruit before I even started, so why the heck I thought it would be a good diet for me, I have no idea!
Needless to say, after 1 "meal" I did the grapefruit diet, minus the grapefruit!

LOL :rotfl:. It does leave a horrible after taste in the mouth!
I have bought two lovely summer dresses off ebay for a function next week, and I can't fit into them yet.

Good luck with it then! I am sure you will be in those dresses before you know it!
I am up to day 15 of shred......half way through :j <<< that's me doing my obligatory warm up jumping jacks! :rotfl:<<< that's me as I once again fail to do a minute of squat thrusts.Successful women can still have their feet on the ground.

LOL, at day 20, you have to do your jumping jacks with heavy weights in your hands .... enjoy.
Seriously well done, you are speeding towards the finish line now.
I have kept my new abs and I think my metabolism has speeded up too because another couple of pounds have come off this week, and I actually haven't had a great week exercise or food wise or money wise come to think of it.
Back on track today though .....I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear.0 -
I still havent bought that Shred DVD, I must get it today when I am in Asda...
Today is my potentially danger day food wise as by today I am getting tired from the week at work and usually end up with a serious attack of the CBA's at dinner time........today I am going to pick up a cooked chicken from Asda and some salad otherwise I can see a pizza being shoved in the oven for easiness:o

Thanks for the welcome scrooge. YES WE ARE going to defy gravity. Wow, to have a super toned body - doesn't that sound great!
Yes Elle Macpherson does look absolutely amazing. No reason why we can't.
