Hi all how u all getting on?


Abs was tough last night,getting bit better at the bokwa though!
Was chatting with instructor last night about healthy foods etc and I didnt kno that if u drink 2 litres of green tea it burns 200 calories straight off as clears everything out!apparently its amazing stuff!so I've stocked up today on green and peppermint tea and got two litres cooling in fridge at the mo!gonna try drink bottle of it a day!gotta be better than all the caffeine I consume!had a cheeky weigh yesterday was bit disappointed as said I'd gained 1lb!!!instructor said give it couple of weeks and ill start losing it as I've upped my exercise its likely i will have a gain:-( hopefully wi tomorro will show some sort of loss!!


Enjoy ur day will update diary later

Hey Claire, I'm sure I've read somewhere that it isn't good for your body to drink too much green tea, can't think were I read it though! Also don't worry about the gain, they recommend you don't weigh after a hard gym session as your muscles are repairing themselves, they draw in extra fluid to aid recovery and therefor it seems you weigh more. So don't worry. If you are exercising alot it may be worth it to work off measurements rather than weight :D. Other than that you are doing amazing, an inspiration! xx

Yeh I thought I'd read that somewhere too so had a look apparently from what I've found it's supplements that are more dangerous as they contain a massive amount more than few cups of green tea,it says 10 small cups a day is ok the supplements contain 50 times more polyphenol than 1 cup of green tea which can be harmful.will ask my instructor tho now just to be sure.
Yep deffo gonna start measuring I think thanks as prob will show more on the measurements hopefully :) xxx

Ohh how'd you find the dinner, I used one satchet between the family, thinking its probably much nicer with the whole thing to myself lol. Good luck for weigh-in

I didnt really like it,loved the peppers though and the noodles think it was the satay sauce maybe would be nicer with diff flavour.i only ate half of the portion if that x
