Have just ordered the shred DVD that everyone on here always goes on about for days I can't make it to the gym. Only £4.99 on amazon. If it has arrived I will try it out on sat and report back! :A:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j:j0

:wave:Could I join you please? I have some serious lbs to lose (about 30) and am facing a challenge of NOT losing too many £££s!
To explain, we have just bought a house which we need to furnish from top to bottom, as well as all the bills and maintenance costs etc which come with being house owners.
I want to do this as MSE as possible, so I am hoping you will let me join on the basis that every £ I manage to save by shopping around, cashback, deals etc is a £ 'lost' so to speak.
In terms of the lbs to lose, I am using a combination of crosstrainer, weights, the Shred DVD and dog walking to shift my lard. I am not going to diet diet, as the minute I do I want chocolate, but instead follow the paleo principles for eating.
I tried this for a bit last autumn and saw really quick results - both in my weight and also how much better I felt generally. I will do it 6 days a week, so I have one "cheat day" when I can include some non-paleo stuff like cheese and bread. Will not go mad though.....Will also stop serving myself the same sized portions as my 6'4", braod shouldered OH!
You are all doing fabulously - you have inspired me to do this properly. That and I turn 30 in 5 days time.....:eek:"No society can surely be flourishing and happy of which by far the greater part of the numbers are poor and miserable"Adam Smith6/300 -

Well done Rachy
I am not doing so great moneywise - waiting for payday on 20th and have lots of outgoings in Jan tooBUT had a brilliant first week at slimming world. Just lost 7lb!!! Absolutely delighted. I know it is mostly water but I'll take it as a fabulous kickstart to my weightloss journey.

So sorry to hear your really sad news pm. Thinking of you and sending some virtual hugs to you and your family.
Great losses everyone. :T I'm still hanging my head in shame- just cannot seem to get into things foodwise. I did however go to circuit class on Tuesday and have booked aerobics tonight.
Good luck everyone.
