Shame on me "Lost 3.5 stone last year over 6 months and did it by cutting out fizzy drinks even diet ones, crisps, biscuits, microwave meals basically all the crap. Did calorie counting and looked at 1800 and targeted losing 1-2 lbs per week. Achieved it joined a gym in August to get toned. More importantly the weight has stayed off.

"Did this last year via bookface and lost almost 3 inches off my waist. Didn't keep it going though and back to square 1 so doing it again this year
Basically you do a plank every day for 28 days starting with 20 seconds and increase your time each day. You measure your waist at the start, weekly and at the finish. Its not a weight loss tool, just a way of toning up your core muscles
Can send details of the fb page if anyone wants to join me
Sounds like a great challenge.
Might suggest this to Lady V...
Lol good luck suggesting she needs to firm up " yeah yeah.. were both doing a whole lifestyle change health thing.. | |||

It's more to do with sticking to a healthy eating plan rather a diet, go for something you can maintain, consistency is the key, cardio at the gym is good but don't kill yourself doing it, out of breath but can still string a sentence together is a good starting point. | |||

"Start off with cutting g out all the crap. Sugary sweets and snacks. 3 meals a day and plenty of water. That will kickstarter your plan with some exercise." Great way to start. Drink as much water as you can. It helps you feel full and cleanses all the toxins from your body. Dont go crazy with the exersise to begin with, ease yourself into it. Do something you will enjoy and set yourself targets to reach. Make it enjoyable.... | |||

"I would recommend some basic yoga stretchs. Its very important to warm your muscles up before doing exersise. Greatly reduces the risk of muscle damage and other injury. There are plenty of videos on youtube. Theres a lady called Adriene who does loads of short classes from beginer thru to more advanced, plus she quite hot too. "Can 2nd her videos....good for bendyness | |||

It's tough and you need to focus the mind as well.Pilates isn't easier but there is less focus on the mind. But none are easy as it looks. I just managed the downward dog. | |||

"Dont expect to be super flexible after a few goes. That takes a long time to achieve. Ive been doing it for a few years on and off and I am still not that flexible. What it does is helps with blood flow around your body. And learn to breathe properly." the class I went to dimmed the lights so i couldn't see or hear a dam thing lol kept needing to open my eyes to see what everyone was doing | |||

I think people kid on they are better people for doing it. Maybe so, it is very relaxing. Some nice background music helps. If doing it in the house, make sure the room is pretty warm. It helps with the muscles. You just need to keep at it. There are about ten moves that will get you a started and you can add more once you are comfortable with them...... | |||

Need to tone and fight the flabby bits, eat healthy normally but have been lazy past month driving everywhere I stead of walking so da booty needs tightening and the bingo wings lol.

"Coming late to the party, can you send us the info please? Xx " Basically start with doing the plank position for 20 seconds then increase the time by x seconds every day (5 is a good start but you may be able to manage more). 1:45 completed this morning 20s seems so easy now!!! | |||
