Hypno's reminder that she is doing ok, actually!

REDMADCURLS

Hypno, a wonderful achievement and one that would make me estatic!

Fridays - Bless them!

I have a pair of Principle jeans (14) which fit. Thats more about the size of their jeans than the size of me!

However, my beloved levi's are size 12 and I love them and I will get into them, just another 15lbs to go!

I also have a pair of 'boyfriend' jeans size 14 from Topshop - (boyfriend = very loose fitting) RMC Boyfriend jeans = normal fit and not loose fit LMAO!!! I love them because I have bigger thighs and they don't 'cling'

hi hypno, glad you are hanging in there, sounds like you have packed more into the last couple of days than i can manage in an hour

also thanks for the tip on the jeans I will check them out. I am 5 foot tall with long legs and also find the short lengths are ankle flapping after a few washes! :mad:

I normally buy Oasis jeans and get them taken up a little as they are ok for curvy/pear shape girls too. but nice to know there are other options, I would never have thought about Fatface :T

well attempted day one of the shred ... lasted the warm up the first strengthening and 3/4 the cardio then i got too pooped ... will go back and start again though as i can now see why she earns her reputation and i actually enjoyed it ... have to admit i did have to stretchy myself alot though as there was alot of upper body in it and my shoulder is more knackered than i thought ... even doing the cross over hurt like a biatch the star jumps agony the press ups ... could barely do them ... my shoulder is on fire now but i did enjoy it and i can see how it works ...

Oh dear! Good to have another perspective on it though! :rotfl: Sounds like it works - although must be very hard if it knackered you before you got to the end of 20 minutes! :eek: Will you be doing tomorrow as well??? :eek:

i will be redoing it today ... the truth is it does work ... the other truth is i am very unfit ... and yet a further truth is i am injured ... i thought i was getting better but the d.v.d proved otherwise lol

cant believe it....i ordered shred on wednesday and it arrived TODAY:eek:
i had not given any thought it might arrive before i left this weekend for 2 weeks (housesitting up north) so now i am in a dilemna?
do i take it and start, or do i procrastinate for another 2 weeks and enjoy my holiday??? decisions...decisions....decisions....


i know what i SHOULD do....:D

Difficult choice! I might have given a different answer if I'd not just read Eltan's experience - but I'd say ignore it and enjoy your hols!

OOh meant to say that I got £1 on the scratchies yesterday so thanks Hypno for getting me started on that!

El, bit by bit you will get further on with the DVD - P and I found it difficult in the early stages......it was quite a struggle (and we even had the woman deliver our Indian takeaway half way through - now THERE's dedication for you, as we decided to leave the takeaway until we had finished the workout!!!) but it does get easier. I couldn't do a press up to start with but can now do them, not necessarily with ease, but certainly quite acceptably!

Just listen to your body re the injuries and I am sure you will be fine

savingmore - you will enjoy shred - so take it with you to enhance your holiday even more :j:j:j
