    6 and a half stone lost!!

    Hey hun, Thankyou so much I did it pretty slowly in all really as it was a case of getting to a weight then feeling comfortable and just doing more and more. The first picture was taking september 2008 and the second october 2013. However the last 3 years has more been about exercise than diet.

    Diary to 10k run and the bikini bod

    This is 100% the last and final push to that body people are envious of! That body where I could wear a swim suit or maybe even a bikini and feel confident!
