I know, you have to pay out for the games but once you have them you got them for life so it does work out much cheaper and nobody else see's your wobbly bits! Except for my cat in my case! ;) Bymbo xxx

oooo dont say that :( it says 1st April on Amazon and Play so fingers crossed xxx

I know I am soooo excited about this. My friend goes to the Zumba classes and the weight has been falling off her. I am not so keen on excercise classes so being able to do it at hom is fantastic!! :banana dancer: Bymbo xxxx

Have you got a Wii? Its an expensive buy but so worth it. I am not a fan of gyms or exercising in public so this great for me. I can do it in the privacy of my own home when I want to and it is really good fun. The Wii Fit is an extra that you need to get to keep an eye on your weight and do...

I may be very behind in the times but I have been informed today that Zumba on the Nintendo Wii is being released on the 1st April. As a die hard wii fit fan I an very excited about this and I am going to pre order it on Amazon this weekend. Reduced on there if you pre-order it...

I only really get it for the recipies but then you can get so many for free online I suppose it is a bit pointless! However, you do get the 2011 calendar with this months issue which is good and you can get it even cheaper if you buy it at group :rolleyes:

Thanks everyone for all your messages you really all are a great support. And I will go to my meeting tonight I promise - there is no way that I could be the only one there who has never had a bad week before! I will come back on here either later tonight or tomorrow to let you know how I got on...

I am really really really dreading going to my meeting tonight. I have not been very good and I am sure that I have prob gained pounds rather than losing them :sigh: I am thinking of pulling a sickie and not going. Where I can only get to meetings every fortnight it would give me 2 weeks to...

I would complain, there is no problem with the consultants having a break every one deserves one! But she/he should at least have the decency to tell you! That is the sort of thing that could send someone completly off the rails, some people rely on image therapy to get them through each week...

yeah I think I need to, I always forget to fill it in though, perhaps I should tie a little note book to a piece of string and wear it around my neck!! xx

Thought I had better update this, I am thinking that if I write it down and tell all of you then that will act as the big kick up the ass that I need! I have been really bad this week. I have not been snacking but in the space of 7 days I have had a takeaway from KFC and half a pizza from...
