Michelle Bridges 12 week Body Transformation - what to expect..

Big Thank You to this beautiful lady for improving me in so many ways!


My 12 Weeks Body Transformation challenge is nearly over (just over one week to go) and I must say that
I am a bit upset about it. Never before I wasn't looking forward to finishing a "diet".

Food

 I use term "diet" loosely because it didn't feel like one at all! The food was "real"!
There was no gimmicky shakes instead of meals, no all-fruits-and-carbs-are-banned and certainly no starving yourself!
All your meals are written out for you and you must cook a lot. At first it was overwhelming but after couple of weeks I got a hang of it. Your shopping list for the week is also provided making planning your meals super easy. You are allowed to have one cheat meal per week which lets you still go out and enjoy a meal with your friends.
Three meals are provided for you per day plus you must have couple of healthy snacks as well.
I really enjoyed most of the meals that were provided to me. I also had to cook few of them for my guests and they were really impressed! They couldn't believe it was my "diet" food.
My total food bill was around $120 for both of us for one week which I think is reasonable.


Exercise

You have few options and levels to choose from. The intensity ranges from Beginner to Advanced and you can choose to exercise at home, gym, outdoor or do classes.




You are required to exercise most days. At first you might think that it is not possible or you won't be motivated enough to do it...but trust me you can fit one work out into your day! After all one hours of exercise is just 4% of your day.

Most programs offer a combination of cardio, strength and flexibility. You will also complete some tests so you can keep a track on your progress.

Support

There is a forum with hundreds of current members who are willing to offer their suggestions and support. Michelle will also release couple of videos per week where she addresses important issues. She is a very good motivator and IMO her videos contribute heavily to the overall success of the program!

Buyers Beware - Fake OPI nail polish!

Image
Fake anything especially make-up makes me very angry! Yesterday I was browsing Ebay because I wanted to get some OPI nail polishes and came across few clearly fake ones. I got few OPIs from Ebay and never had an issue. Mine came from US sellers who charged US retail prices for their polishes. They sold lots and lots of them and seemed to specialize in nail products. Yesterday I came across few lots of "OPI" nail polishes. I saw fair dew lots from sellers who don't particularly specialize in nail products. They were "factory seconds" and were missing a label. The shades were very random and I never saw those shades in OPI collections. However I know that some counterfeit OPIs will have a lable with colour name on it. I was fortunate enough and never got a fake OPI nail polish . So I will show you what a REAL one looks like. 1. The front of the bottle Note the writing. There are some variations between old and new editions of OPI but the writing at t...

I had my Tragus pierced today!

Image
It is something I wanted to do for few week now. I always liked the look of multiple earrings and even pierced a second hole in my ear when I was 11 (which then I took out and it eventually healed). Tragus piercing to me looked very appealing but painful. However after speaking to few people who had it done I realised it doesn't seem to be as bad. Today I summoned my courage and called Cosmetics Plus at Carindale. They told me to come in as Fridays are usually not very busy. I've applied plenty of EMLA numbing cream on the area 30 min before (however I was told it is best to apply it 45 to 60 min prior). The whole process took 10 minutes and set me back $35 including the earring.     The girl who did my piercing was very nice and friendly. She first marked the spot with a marker pen and asked if I was happy with the placement, I've decided that I wanted it a bit lower hence why you can see a bit of ink residue above the piercing. Then she disinfected the area and a...

Happy Birthday Barbie!

Barbie turned 53 today! She changed a lot in 53 years and I must say she got better with age In 1959 she looked like this: Beautiful, pale and stylish In 1960's Barbie was quite conservative and traditional as a Nurse and French Fashionista In 1970's iconic Malibu Barbie emerged. In my opinion she started the whole "Barbie" trend - tanned skin, blonde hair and long legs. She also came with a BF Ken and camper van Barbie industry was going strong in 80's. She appeared in vast range of outfist and collections From sweet Peaches n Cream To Over-The-Top Rocker Barbie and Holiday Barbies I grew up in 90's. I remember my best friend's sister brought this one home from Italy in 1991 It was in the former Soviet State and Barbies were very rare and highly prized so to me it was the most beautiful thing ever. Totally Hair Barbie and Teresa were very popular This add used to mesmerise me, it was played during Disney series as well as Hollyw...
