| Weight Loss | Nivea GoodBye Cellulite | Apr 29 2009 09:57 (UTC) |

I had really bad cellulite and I hated my legs and something I have have been doing lately is exfoliating every day. I'm using one of those scrunchie type wash things, you know http://i15.ebayimg.com/08/i/001/34/d1/da4d_1. JPG <link there so you know what I'm going on about, basically its just means instead of having a normal wash in bath/shower I scrub and then after I use cocoa butter lotion or nivea oil moisteriser and have noticed a major difference. I'd actually wear shorter shorts now and not be too bothered about my legs - I even went swimming and didn't feel like my saddle bags were all orange peely! Hope that helps! |

I notice this is a late response as you posted in 2007! But I'll reply anyway! I bought some this past weekend at my local asian supermarket, I found them in the fridge section with the tofu etc. I assume some health food shops may still sell it with all their tofu based products. Happy Hunting! jen x |

Name: Jenny Okay had a little set back this week. Although my goal is 180 and so I only have 3.75 left to lose until last weigh in and meet it, I'm not sure if I'll do it! This is quite a hard time of year, I've got about 6 family/friend events that I can think of within those dates and I don't want my Xmas to be spoiled by me counting calories obsessively! I think if i could maintain until jan 5 then I would be sooooo chuffed! Thats when the serious dieting starts for my goal date of July 13th and 154lbs! But I will be good around the events to avoid any unessassary weigh gain! Last week was a blip and will not happen again! |

| I love the wii fit, I must dust mine off, I knew i should have fought for my exercise bike instead at the time but my boyfriend was adement a Wii fit would be better...I do like the hula hoop and the yoga though, I tend to find though I do the balance games rather than the aerobic which is probably not that great for me.
I'm in work at the mo and have eaten about 6 hero's/celebrations...how many cals is that? I knew I shoudlnt have had the first one cos then I just couldn't stop! OOOppps! Good luck tomorrow! |

Thanks leopardrayne for the pounce and hug! Thanks for the support mom of2funykids! Good job on your walk! Hi Karey! Do you get alot of storms so they're just second nature to you now? I don't think England would cope, when ever something like that happens its like a total major disaster, its like we don't get prior warning which they must be able to tell us seems you guys get it! ro50bin-I totally understand where you are coming from, the ups are beginning to become a bit more regular! I just wanna get below 181 to feel a bit more secure again and less outta control! Ro50bin and wendy, my small goal is by oct 5! Not for a holiday but starting a new job so I want rid of my double chin by then!!! ANyway hope you've all had a good day, I'm on nights this week and was very pleased with myself yesterday as managed to keep my cals to 1616 (daily limit 1500) as usually my first night I go alot closer to 2000!!! Chat soon! Jenx |

| Hey Eire! Welcome! I don't exercise, I'm really rubbish and plan to start Turbo Jam soon but I'm on nights this week so when I'm waking at 4pm ish I just can't get the motivation.
8st 13lbs is kinda low for your height...although I'm not gonna preach to you what is right or wrong 4 you, I know the BMI guide should just be looked at as a guide and not the be all and end all and it all depends on your shape etc. Anyways hope you get to goal, what are u eating at the mo cals wise? Do you exercise? |

| hhi stephie pops!!!! welcome, I was thinking about your weight..
i thought maybe 147 was a bit low for me...im 5'9" but then I remember being 137 when I was 18, although that just piled straight back on, I had had my tonsils out and hardly ate for 2 weeks so dropped 10lbs. At the mo I am 182(well thats the official weight but really as of this morning i am 180), been exercising everyday and eating 1500cal, so maybe my target should stick to 147 as people are jealous when they say you would look too think when really I would be a BMI of 22!! Anyway Im in work so I had better go! |

| Hi Mandy, laura and tanya, welcome to our brit forum! Hope your all ok.
Hey redkitty how you doing? Glad that you are maintaining at the present, hope taht the moves not being too stressful on you Im managing to stick to my 1500cals a day and Im trying to get some exercise in, yesterday was 38mins on the wii fit, today only 10mins pilates abs but better than nowt! I can't wait to get to a point where people stop asking me when the diet starts (as Im always starting a new diet) or when they just start saying that I look good and that I look like Ive lost weight (being told you look healthy just doesnt cut it really!) Ok all, chat soon |

| I woke up this morning and was determine dto do a segment of my pilates dvd before i went to work, so even though it was only 10mins thats better than I would normally do!!! Also I have been sticking to 1500 cals or there abouts for the past couple of days, I was trying to keep to 1200 but I found that was a bit too strict for me and was probably teh reason I have been in such a slump lately! | |||

| I agree that the purple is nicer, i think that with your figure the black one makes your look skinny but the purple one acetuates your curves and makes you look slim and more toned (not skinny) if you get me.
ALthough personal comfort plays a big part which you feel more confident in |
