I don't..I love it, just the way it is. So to get me off that subject and others...how gorgeous do the girls and guys look every week on SCD? I love them! Carole and Lillia and Camilla were beautiful this week (all the females were, but they stood out) and Mark and Ray.....come to Mamma! I have put a stone on over the summer (or more) and they are so inspiring me to tone up, lose weight and do a samba/quickstep/cha cha cha. HUN is this a collective stone or 1 stone each?? So I am making it my goal to have lost a stone by the final...and be (nearly, but not quite ) as gorgeous as those guys and gals.Anyone else with me? We have 6 or so weeks to lose a stone! ![]() HUN is this a collective stone or 1 stone each?? |

I wouldn't frighten you all? heheAlso here is a list of schools registered with the IDTA. Not all teachers/schools are listed so if there aren't any in your area give the main office a call and they'll give you contact details for teachers in your area. http://www.idta.co.uk/schools/index.html Peach x Last edited by PeachUK : 05-11-2006 at 21:31. |

I weigh in every Sunday when I go for my early morning swin - I know, I'm crazy, but just thinking about Marks salsa and paso had me thrashing through the water like a mad thing! Anyway, I lost another 2 this morning!
I think SCD is helping me lose weight, because I am on here instead of eating rubbish! |
