    Well I didnt sweat like it describes but it has definitely warmed me up and my skin feels lovely and tingly and smooth! I used half a spice jar of ginger and some tea tree oil. Feel ready for a nice relaxing early night now! X

    Sounds really nice- I often have a bath when I am cold, it is sometimes the only way I can warm up.
    I look back at those photo's and think "why did I think I was fat?". Thyroid be damned, I will be thin again.

    Goals:
    Goals for this time round-
    Fit in my bridesmaid dress
    Lose 10lbs

    Lose 1stone

    Lose 18lbs

    Reach 10stone
    4/12/12 (again...)
    Get into my size 10s (what ever weight that requires)

    Oh gosh that sounds amazing!
    When I get tempted to pick in the evenings, I'm going to be lounging in the bath with a good book or magazine and this sounds perfect!!!

    Yes I added the salts as well, feel lovely and relaxed now in a way I haven't for ages??? You can also do them with a cup of grated fresh ginger and no salts/baking powder to get the sweat and detox effect, the baking powder has made my skin feel so soft tho!
