When the muscle strengthens the fat still sits on top of it and therefore can become more noticeable and protrudes. With regular workouts and a mix of cardio it will eventually burn itself away :) xx

I'd recommend buying some bio oil and spending 5 minutes a day thoroughly massaging it into the areas where the skin has still not tightened back. Also make sure youre properly hydrated daily as your skin will need this to help the natural processes x

Get rid of grenade and get yourself some arson! :p x

Completely agree. Might be something to do with the potassium but this is the only thing I can eat before working out that stops me from getting queasy. Another thing I'd recommend is buying some soya protein powder and making a smoothie with it before you workout. It has been shown to reduce...

I swear by MAC's studio moisture tint foundation! It's the only tinted moisturiser I can find light enough and that doesn't leave me with a shiny face after a couple of hours of wear. I fact all my make up bag seems to be MAC these days apart from touché éclat x

Thank you for all the lovely welcomes! Diary now up and running so here's hoping! X

I totally agree with Blue here. Wanting to look like celebrities has been one of the main causes for teenage eating disorders and 9 times out of 10 would be unachievable due to us all having our own individual body shape. I think being a slimer more toned version of myself would be my ideal. X

Please excuse my blondeness, I totally never though about doing a thread search. I'll have a browse now :) x

Hey guys! I've just ordered this online and should receive it next week. Has anyone tried it or about to try it? Feedback/thoughts? Ta muchly :) M x

I totally agree! It becomes such a stress counting calories or point on a daily basis. Best way forward is just to eat healthy and to always try to stick to fresh food and nothing processed as best you can :) x
