Yes

Funnily enough I have just been reading about the insanity workouts Sarge. My book is due on Tuesday, looks perfect as the recipes are not silly fad foods. Going to purchase a yoga mat tomorrow, don't want to rough up my carpet/carpet burns. I've only done the one workout today ( nearly killed me, I won't lie) but felt such a buzz all day. Even went for a post lunch 40 min fast pace walk. I love cycling....yes, I will build cycling into my routine too. Am not going to get on the scales, just not getting addicted to that lark ( I know what I'm like) so will take a picture every two weeks to see the difference. Not overly over weight, I'd say about half a stone too much. It's the feel good fitness as much as anything too, that I will enjoy. Sorry, have wrote a ruddy essay ....just nice to talk and share my plans.

Then I'm glad I posted ;) I went off booze, well more a case of total avoidance as that leads me to make stupid decisions and smoke. Back on it after a two year break and quite enjoying it myself. I saw a bottle of Moonshine in my local supermarket, never heard of that before, your post has reminded me. Will have to make a purchase and try for myself.

This came up on my FB feed, it made me chuckle because I thought of you. Barney wise of course...as I don't know your drinking tendencies.

Why do stars fall down from the sky, every time, you walk by? Why do people leave no more than a spit worth of milk in the container? No use nor ornament! Why does nobody else change the toilet roll? Doesn't live on top of the loo...take out the old one and replace.

I will say Marti that I found it tough...very tough! That motivates me even more now...got my determined little so and so head on. I love that he says love fat ( the right ones) and drink Vodka...;) although says to avoid my favourite things cocktails. Mind you I will limit myself to just one on a Friday and Saturday...got to have some guilty pleasure.

Thank you Marti, I will follow your advise ;)

Just done the workout...O..M...G... So unfit. Good, glad it felt like that as it motivates me to do something about it. I like his style that you can do this all in the comfort of my own home. What with fitting a gym session in, the cost, and feeling silly seeing other super trim folk this suits me just fine. He also has a book with recipe ideas so will be making a purchase. Just looked on his blog page and he has a fab Piri Piri chicken recipe, so I like his style of food. Going to record and check in on this thread, each day, my get fit version of NOPE. Don't have feel buzzing after the work out....popping out later for a walk too, can't run as it kills my current police men's feet situation, walking is far less painful. Here is the video if anyone else fancies giving it a go

Hi Katoo and welcome to the train...;)

Hope that your ok Babs xx I'm giving up two things...first is expecting my girls to keep their rooms tidy, and orderly...although I can't bare the chaos, when I see it, I am just not going to look anymore....enough, will shut their door then I can not see. I'm giving up expecting a beach body to magically appear. Got the Ab Roller out the garage, found a ladies 15 minute work out video on YouTube ...beach body, here I come ;)

Yes a very Happy New year to everyone, hope that you all had a great New Year's Eve.

Awesome...well done DD xx

Treated myself to this, Boxing Day, I am a fan. What works for me is that it's not in any way orange colour, and no nasty smell. Using it as my bedtime moisturiser....although can be worn under make up so great as a morning one, if you so wish. I will say I do pop a bit of chap stick on my eyebrows before applying, as with any false tan you can get that tell tale eyebrow look if not careful. Given me a super summer glow....taken the edge off the Winter white beautifully, and caused no break outs ;) http://www.lookfantastic.com/xen-tan-face-tanner-80ml/10909042.html?utm_source=googleprod&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=gp_bodycare&affil=thggpsad&switchcurrency=GBP&shippingcountry=GB&gclid=CjwKEAiAwZO0BRDvxs_1w-qFnhkSJABo10gg1CS2VEvnToTPBqDhQvmVP7dzXwp8AS445wGOwdyxrBoCeHHw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds&dclid=CJrb_PS9hsoCFc1mGwodku0MFA

Goodness me Doreen just goes to show doesn't it? I only hope those thinking of quitting read that, don't brush it off as 'well it won't happen to me' because as your poor Tony has sadly found, it could and does. Thank goodness you stopped Doreen!

Here ;)

If you've read the book, followed all the instructions then go for it...do the Smoke Your Last Cig ritual and you're free. What a great way to end the year.....

Didn't know him, but enjoyed reading him...thinking of his loved ones today xx

I'm glad it's over if I'm honest. Find it an expensive farce now to be honest. I'm not bah humbug, I get involved and have Christmas cheer and all that jazz, yet am always glad when it's over too. Decorations will be down as soon as possible my end, then it's the countdown to Spring for me...exciting times. Not a Winter person, not one little bit.

I got my Christmas wish... I got the Hourglass Dim Light shade. Perfect, I like to have a spray tan each month and this worked really well with my slightly bronzed skin. The diffused light will be good when the tan is fading. I also got this gift set, although UK folk Superdrug currently have them on offer...plus! The have their whole brush set with fab beauty bag reduced from £99 to £48... Seriously, bargain! Had I not had most of the brushes I would have made a purchase..no danger! This is the brush set I got, found them really easy to use and gave a good finish.

And may have had a dance or two? Although that could just be my wishful thinking...

Or at least try Doreen...cheeky grin xx

Staying in New Years as Lee will not be home from work till very late. Hang out with the girls and watch tv no doubt. Cocktails and maybe a bit of karaoke later in the evening maybe. No resolutions..none...never stick to them anyway. Thinking of joining a gym in Feburary to help get a beach body for my holiday, or might start running have not decided yet. Looking forward to going to Tenerife in July and meeting up with the Tenerife Nine gang. Plan to pop money away, each month, to save for the girls driving lessons next December, have been doing this saving for prom night, saving each month has been going well.

Congratulations you did it, well done xx

Full....and grateful.

She looks so beautiful and I love her outfit too. I will look forward to lots more photos of her. My girls are sixteen on Sunday so will post a picture of ,then and now, of them. Great idea for a thread. Would insert a thumbs up but can't do stuff like that on my pad.
