Finally managed the 30 minutes, I have been stuck on 28 for a little while now, really surprised myself because I went out last night and drank and danced the night away!

So happy to put my bikini on this year and sit on the beach in confidence, I would love to lose a few more lbs, so been using my fitness pal (thanks for the tip guys, I am addicted to it!) and I think it's working!! Happy days.

Still getting shin splints though, from running and badminton, does anyone have any tips for getting rid of them?!

Ice pack and raise whenever you get chance, sorted mine out after few days. Obviously depends on severity. Well done on 30 mins. Skipping a run so that you have 3 or 4 days off could only be of benefit at this stage if not you could be laid up for longer
