    I've been absent for a week - I've been walking as much as possible and a few star jumps to finish me off :j!

    I haven't managed to avoid the cake tho as OH made a black forest gateau for our anniversary. :T I blame the hairy bikers!!

    All my spare change in the sparkle fund, but I'm not keeping a check on how much so it can be a surprise later!

    A huge thank you for the inspiring messages! :T

    The cameraderie on here is wonderful. :)

    Keep up all the good work all you wonderful sparklers. All those little steps will add up (that's what I'm counting on!)

    I like the idea of adding to the fund but no penalties if I make a slip - afterall, the slips would have been much worse if I hadn't been trying so hard just before. :rotfl:

    Oooo can I join in?

    I've just joined the forums today and feeling the most positive I have in a long time.

    Need to get myself back on track too. Would you believe I'm actually qualified as a personal trainer (a real one! not fake and stereotyped)

    If anyone has a smart phone a really good app is the adidas micoach, which lets you start running programs whatever your ability.

    Also if anyone wants any advice on fitness, pm me, it's free advice, I just love helping people in fitness. :j

    All my debts and everything have got me down lately and I've been a miserable so and so. This thread is making me want to be how I used to be. Up for a run and care free (well as care free as you can be in this economy!)

    Thanks for a fab thread :T

    goto the green toolbar at the top. Where you see User CP, click on that. On the left hand side is edit signature. Type in what you want for the sparkle fund, you can change colour, add smileys, etc. Scroll down to the bottom, click on save, Hey presto one signature :)

    I guess it's never too early to sparkle! I haven't decided which route to go down tho I can't reward myself with a nice bath because that's really a reward for everyone else :)
    Oh well 6am run anyone else? Not too bad once out there really. same tomorrow.
    Have a sparkle filled day
  • Wow a 6 am runner...Go you! :T

    Im nipping round to see my mum in a bit, she only lives 10 mins drive away, although we see each other often we rarely get the time to just sit and have a natter, so will be adding 10p for this later. Its really good for the mind a good ol' natter with mum :)
