Yum yum now im hungry!

Breakfast: two weetabix with skimmed milk and chopped banana - sweet and filling yum!

LOVE red apples, i eat them all the time!

Sugarfree jello

Caxton pink n white biscuits - 50kcal each, v sweet and only 79cent for six!!

One choc digestive a day keeps my choc craving away - not v healthy but it works for me!

love kiwis - 46 kcals each and so sweet

Hot oatmeal with low cal maple syrup - my comfort food for about 100kcals

Loads of water or hot milk (just add boiled water to small amount of milk - sounds horrible but its addictive!)

Crackers with laughing cow spread and slices of turkey - yummy lunch!

Sorry for late reply...my boyfriend is a physiotherapist and from his work these are the results he sees...im sorry for scaremongering, perhaps there is no definite evidence of this occuring but he maintains that trampolines are the common factor between these unfortunate women...i shall ask him to find out more

Some studies I found on Pubmed:

Bo K.Urinary incontinence, pelvic floor dysfunction, exercise and sport.

Urinary incontinence in very young and mostly nulliparous women with a history of regular organised high-impact trampoline training: occurrence and risk factors.

I wasnt sure how to link articles (technophobe:)) but if you just copy this into google, it will give you the abstract of the paper. It seems to be only a recently known effect of trampolining as the effects take a few months of use to show as far as i can tell...

Once again i didnt mean to scare anyone, any urinary incontinence can be cured with a few pelvic floor exercises...feel free to message me if ye are still concerned (i am currently a medicine student so might be of some small use:))

Great, thanks guys, hopefully we will all succeed together! wow ollie u have had a great headstart there...sounds like u know what you are doing! i am in the middle of exams here at the mo so finding it hard to stick to a diet! any study snacks u can recommend? 

Also Amy a new baby is a great incentive to lose weight, lets do this! 

lilly...ur classmates will be so impressed by the time we have reached our goals:)

what day would suit ye to weigh in...eeek!

Hi lady, do not despair, i went through the same thing. however i found that although eating a lot less, I was gaining muscle mass due to all of the additional exercise. Muscle weighs more than fat and so you might have added weight unintentionally...but in a good way! You may not notice now but you are probably slightly more toned and your waist inches may have reduced? keep going with the exercise...the more muscle you build the more calories you use up every day and the speedier your metabolism becomes! I hope this helps you...feel free to contact me!
