I got the 2 inch mat from there and I love it. I will be getting a thicker one soon though.
Mine is a round purple, the colour is so much nicer in person the picture on the website is very washed out.

@poletrickster – I've had it for 2 years now, I have heard that people with RA do see a massive improvement with a gluten free diet but I didn't think it would work. I will have to give it a go now, thanks for the advise 🙂

My 40 arrived this morning 🙂 It's a perfect size. I haven't used it properly yet but it feels comfortable to hold. I have to wait 3 weeks to try it out though 🙁 unless my parents let me set it up in their house.
-
The annoying thing is, I got the 50mm because I had arthritis in my knees only and it would be easier on my legs. Now it's in my hands too 🙁
I'll just have both poles up at once, one for leg things and one for hands 🙂
Thanks for all the help, I'm going to get the 40 so it's easier on my wrists. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif

Same as a 40 that is
-
I have been running around my house with a tape measure, the only thing with the same diameter is the neck a bottle of vodka haha.
That is tiny but it definitely be easier on my hands.
-
How are spins on the smaller poles? For now that's mostly what I'm working on.
My hands look about the same size as yours, I didn't realise the 50 was so big compared to the other two. That 5mm makes a huge difference.

But it's only been a week, when I went on a diet a few months ago I lost nothing to start with. Then I ignored the scales for a month and lost half stone. I don't even own scales now, I go on how my clothes are fitting (unfortunately they're tighter but that's student life).
I wouldn't worry about it just yet, these things just take time.
How hard has it been to eat 1200 calories? I want to try again, last time I gave up after 2 days 🙁
-
You need to add your BMR to calories burned and eat 500 less than that amount to lose 1lb a week.
As long as you calculated exercise into your BMR result then there is no reason this will harm your weight loss.
-
After you've put it up once or twice it's really easy to do, but like amy said you have to remember to check the joints every time.
I can't wait to see your first video and good luck! 🙂
-
I have the xpert but I don't take it down everyday. It's really easy to do once you get used to it and only takes me 5 minutes usually.
If you have space to store it you could take it down but keep the pole in one piece so it's easier to put back up.
-
So maybe they aren't as scary as I thought.
My current studio gives me a free practice session at the end of each level, which sounds a lot like the classes you described. With multiple instructors and all abilities. I will give that a go before I decide if I should switch studios or not.
Thanks for all the help 🙂

I had a look, there are websites selling 100 likes for $7. Supposedly it's ban proof too. Is there a way of reporting this and getting it fixed?
-
I can't believe the lengths some people will go to, it is pathetic really.

My boyfriend looks at me like I'm crazy when I say I'm not washing my hair. He'll soon change his mind when he starts going bald and I still have loads of hair. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
-
I have the same pole as you and it didn't spin well when it was too tight. As soon as I loosened it a little it worked perfectly 🙂
-
That's true about the hair washing. I try to limit to 3 times a week if I can and I use sulphate free shampoo; it's better for the hair and is nice to hair dye. So my hair takes a long time to fade. I used normal colour protect shampoo once and it stripped most of the dye out in one wash. I hate to think how harsh it is on my poor hair 🙁
-
I am having the exact same problem, I had my hair cut to chin length and I wish I hadn't. I also bought some extensions but mine are really light (from Bobby Glam). I don't wear them too often because I dyed my hair bright red and they only match when my hair is freshly dyed 🙁
I also thought a blunt fringe would be a good idea. It wasn't so now I look ridiculous.
I'm going to have to dye it brown so the red stops drawing attention to it.

@Webmaster – Don't worry about it https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif I understand that it must be very frustrating to explain over and over again.
-
@Webmaster – I don't think I made myself very clear, I do not believe you get paid by X-pole. I just found the comment interesting (as they are trying to discredit the Veena review) and a little hypocritical on their part if they are affiliated with Platinum Stages.
Sorry for any confusion https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif
-
They just started replying to the comments on the video. One in particular stood out to me.
"Doesn't Studio Veena get paid by X-pole? No one seemed to care about that when she made a comparison video."
Tough they do acknowledge the SSA base plates pop up if you stand on the edge, why the chose not to show this in the video I have no idea.

You have made me want my mirena now instead of in a few months. The fact you rarely get pains is amazing, I wish I was told about this when I first started using birth control. (Though I was young, I doubt I could deal with the pain back then)
Thanks so much for the advice https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif
-
I'm already on naproxen and have been for 2 years so I know it doesn't bother my stomach. I also have tramadol that I take every now and then so hopefully that will stop the pain. Though I might wait until the easter holidays so I can stay in bed all day without worrying about missing lectures.
After the initial week of cramping has there been anymore pain?
-
Thanks chemgoddess1 and sensualscimitar, I feel better about the whole thing now. The reviews I was reading online were terrifying there were hardly any positive ones. But I figure if it wasn't successful for most people they would stop making it.
I hope it doesn't hurt too much having it put in, I am always on painkillers so I hope they will help. The benefits of the pills will no longer apply when we move in together in a few months. But I will have to see what he thinks about potentially being stabbed for a few months.

Hi, I have been thinking about getting a mirena recently but have read some horror stories online. Then I remembered about this thread so I though I would ask, I'm sorry if these seem a little bit personal.
Basically I have read that during sex it can be extremely painful for you and if your partner is on the larger side the little strings can stab him too. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif
Is that true?
