    Mission Slim-possible! (Shivie's Journey)

    I like the curry the best too out of the "dinner" packs. It's way too mild though so I always add some extra curry powder for a bit more oomph! Not sure if you're supposed to but it's the only way I can find it tasty. No plans for weekend really except getting hair coloured & trimmed. I was...

    Ugh...TOTM from hell so not as good as I'd like! Bet you kinda know the feeling hun!! Gosh an hour-and-a-quarter-long commute on a bus is sooo not fun when in the throes of period pain :(. I was never so glad to have a multitude of pharmacies near my work! To whoever invented Feminax....THANK...

    I would probably do both for the best result hun, maybe give the moisturiser a chance to sink in first. Not that I'm one to ask as I just about remember to moisturise once a week. I'm TERRIBLE! Am determined to master the art of make up application!! Primer stops the natural oils coming through...

    Jelly and "ice-cream"!

    I've just had the most delish treat after my lunch and had to share! I made some Hartley's sugar-free jelly last night (only a few calories in it) and made up a thick crispy vanilla shake with ice-cold skimmed milk in a bowl, plopped some jelly in on top of it and OMG it is LUSH! Just like...

    Wedding diet - want the dress and the bikini!

    It can definitely be done sweetie! It does take a lot of commitment and there's not much room for slip-ups unfortunately! But it's your Big Big Day and that's motivation enough as you'll have to be able to get in your dress on the day or else!!!!! I lost nearly 3 stone last time in under 10...

    Poo...I left my lovely chicken salad out of the fridge in work and the place got really warm and as soon as I opened the lid I could smell the gone off chicken :cry:. Ruined! Oh well, got a bottle of Coke Zero to hand to try and stave off any hunger pangs until I get home for the next pack...

    Mission Slim-possible! (Shivie's Journey)

    Hi girlies! Is it wrong to feel a bit smug and self-satisfied today?!! I can't help it! Had a tough enough pilates session last night and while I'm a bit sore in muscles that were long-forgotten, I feel the better for going. Almost chickened out a couple of times as the weather was stormy etc...
