to our thread Arte & Amy!

Arte, you'll like Mels meal plan. It's great. I think it's just what I needed as I seem to come unstuck easily when I don't properly plan my meals for the day in advance.

Amy, yes the optifast can be really effective. And because of the high protein content it helps your body to preserve muscle even though you are on a very low calorie diet. So it can be a really good kicstart if you can stick with it. All the best for your mum and her lap band surgery.

I've got to say that I just love Curves! I've only been 3 times as I joined last thursday. It's great because its a cardio and resistance training workout all in one. Oh, and I made sure that it's safe to do while pregnant. I'd forgotten how good it feels to exercise.

How is everyone going?
