    Well done, duchess - part of my slacking yesterday and for the few days before was a holiday mission - BIL is getting married in Bermuda in July and my job was to find a way to do it cheaply :)

    Are you all actually doing full sit ups like squaddies do or are you doing slow abdominal curls?

    Thanks Sugarspun :)

    Firefox, I do 5 abdominal crunches, and then 5 slow full sit ups (with bent knees though), and then 5 jacknife sit ups and repeat.

    Weighed this morning - 10st 7lb! Added an extra pound in case I'm hallucinating, so I've definately lost 6lb. :)

    Walked for two hours yesterday.
    Really disheartening to discover it only got me four miles.
