    Good luck ladies. You'll need it!!;) Hahahaha. No, really it's fab! I love the 30 day shred, it's really hard work but the results are amazing and it's only 25 minutes. I did it in January for the 30 days (well, I managed most of them) but now I just use it as a workout and mix the days up.

    Ragin with myself...

    I do it most weeks. I am losing quite big numbers most weeks but it's not showing because I usually have a couple of days where I put a few pounds on so when I have a 3lb loss i've probably actually lost 5lb but I put 2 back on at the beginning of the week. Have you tried saving some syns for...

    "As I got slimmer, the urge to over-eat got less and less"

    Oh gosh, I hope it's true. I would think it's maybe seeing how good you look as you get thinner that might make you lose the need to over eat and habits as everyone else is saying. I'm already finding myself being satisfied about half way through a meal but I have yet to manage to stop eating...

    Changes you've made during these tight financial times

    My main bit of money saving is to meal plan. I previously wouldn't have thought twice about going to the supermarket most days and spending £30. Now I have a budget of £50 a week to feed my family of 5. The only thing I go to the supermarket for in between my weekly shop is milk, bread and eggs.

    Can i have a rant about the OH please?

    Oh how frustrating for you. Has he done anything to try and help with his phobia? I used to be so confident on the phone but am becoming more and more aprehensive when I have to use it. I think for me it's since I became a SAHM.

    Did I blow it

    I had a bad day yesterday too (TOTM munchies too) but i'm just going to draw a line under it, do more exercise today than I had planned to do and have a good day today. It's not the end of the world and I don't believe one bad day can undo a full week of goodness. (((hugs)))

    Leaving class

    If you trust yourself to do it and want to do it enough you'll be fine without the class especially as you say you're not staying for meetings anyway. I don't go to class anymore but that's because I wasn't really trying with going to class so I couldn't do any worse on my own!

    You sound just like me. I struggle to follow my own advice but you really need to 'step away from the scales'!
