    Sorry this thread will be ending. Perhaps we will have to reincarnate ?
    I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.
    Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
    I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over and through me. When it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
    When the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

    LL - sorry you are leaving, you have helped me more than you prob realise, as even when I wasn't posting I was reading regulary and you always have great words of wisdom.

    I shall always remember the elephant!!!

    Dad is improving, he's been out making the most of the sun on his sun lounger that I got him for his birthday.

    Just completed level 2 of the shred - omg!!!! feeling good though as there was no way I would ever of been able to do that 2 weeks ago. I haven't lost any weight but have lost inches of am pleased with that.

    Well it only takes one of us to start a thread :)

    I'll be in if someone starts it - if no-one takes the leap I may well do.....

    Hewie - is Level 2 very much harder? I've just done another Level 1 day and am starting to find it quite doable and not as much of a challenge. How many level 1 days did you do before moving up?

    Oh no! I've only just found the thread, and have done more lurking than posting but I don't want it to end. I just bought the 30 day shred dvd you guys were on about (only £4.99 off Amazon so thought it was worth a go), but think I'll do my slightly different physio exercises for my back first and hope it improves.

    Went for a 2mile walk at lunch today, and just bought some salad stuff and cooked meats for lunch.

    WW - it was harder, I did have to stop on a few bits and re join in, however if I hadnt done level 1 then there would be now way I could've attempted level 2. You seem to need a bit more co-ordination which I seemed to be missing.

    I think I did about 11 days on level 1.

    Just got up and I don't ache too much at all so I am pleased with that.

    Have a good day everyone xx

    I don't mind starting the thread.......not as if it's "my" thread after all, I'll just be physically starting it.

    So sun is shining, my back is terribly stiff after nights sleep, a sure sign I am not moving enough. So crack on with the housework it is then ;)

    Faithless keep posting, even I lurk more often when I really ought to post :o enjoy Shred......it's killer! I am amazed anyone has comfortably made it past level 1......shows how unfit I am :o

    Morning all,

    LL - noooooo, you can't leave us! :( Seriously though, I understand the need to concentrate on RL now, I too think you have come so far but have no doubt you will go much further with or without us. I think since it looks like people are still interested in continuing the thread then we'll still be here - so maybe you could pop in now and again to let us know how you're doing - it won't be the same without you x

    Bitsy - glad you had a good weekend, hope the back improves x

    Hewie - I'm in awe of you now, have never made it to Level 2 of the shred :T

    So, it's the Solistice tomorrow - am I Fab? Er, not by a very long way! Am, I slightly less Frump? Well, I suppose so but probably not as much as I wanted - see, I definately need a new thread! I do think though that the major changes I have made in the last 6 months have been attitude-wise. I've started doing things that I've being putting off for basically years, I've started ignoring that irritating little voice that tells you you can't do things and saying instead - why can't I, what's the worse that will happen if I try? Obviously still a long way to go but I'm quite happy with some of the progress I've made :) I also think it's amazing the progress everyone else has been making - one of the best things about this thread is how inspiring the people on it are :) So, give yourself credit and a big pat on the back!
