Does 'cleanse' mean eat all the naughty things left over from Christmas
If it does, my house needs a serious cleansingIs it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:

I'm in on this too, put on almost 2 stone through depression and will lose it all this year (hopefully!)
I cant find my tape measure so will just have to put my weight down instead lol! I'm 11st 6pounds
:eek::eek::eek:
Good luck everyone!
Lets beat the bulge!!!! :rotfl::T0 -
omg I have a beer belly and I don't drink beer :rotfl: :rotfl:
I prefer to think of mine as a baby belly, rather than a beer belly. The fact that I had it long before I had the kids is neither here nor thereIs it better to aim for the stars and hit a tree or aim for a tree and land in its branches :think:Loves being a Wonderbra friend :kisses3:

I'd love to join in one this one too, I've been gradually putting on weight over the last 5 - 6 years :eek:
So anyway I could do with losing quite a bit of weight and I'll get my measurements later (OH is using the tape measure at the moment as he's wallpapering the hallway)
I'm sure it's about 2 dress sizes I want to drop to get me to a 12 which would make me very happy...
I'll start mine next week if that's ok as my friend I haven't seen for 6 months is coming to stay this weekend and I just know there'll be takeaways and copious amounts of alcohol...:D0 -
