Im not sure if this was for me or Ausgirl.....


But I did it for competitive reasons.... I was doing long distance runs and still had what I considered "jigly bits" around my hips and bum. 5kg slows you down enough to count. I could not for the life of me, shift that weight. I had the said "perfect" diet for competition and even with running over 70km a week, that weight was still hanging in there I ended up giving up competition running because I simply couldnt get my body where I needed it. At the time I left competitive running (12 months after trying duromine) I was 56.5 kg and my body was stuggling (periods became very sparse)

I'm happy where I am now. My body has come back to "what it wants to be" which is 67kg, 8kg up from the place where I thought I could lose 5 more kg. I see now what I was doing to myself, but couldnt then, my eyes were on the prize, not looking at what was best for my body. It took alot for me to realise that my body just wasnt, and could not be the build I wanted.
Oh I see, fair enough

Because I have a very fat stomach which is not a good place for women to carry weight and thunder thighs lol!
I am 60kg and 163 cm and I have a jiggly bloated belly too LOL. But I am just trying to watch what I eat to stop bloating, helps a lot.


Wow, I don't have kids yet, but I gotta say I'm a bit scared of the lengths ladies are going to to loose baby weight. While I enjoy going to the gym a few times a week I doubt very much if you would find me there 5-6 days a week let alone 3 months after I gave birth
