Hi, I have used a agency called Tonic, also for F&B brand. Highly recommended. Just do a search on google as I don't have their contacts anymore. <em>edited by candyfloss on 23/04/2013</em>

I am in the same predicament as you. I did however call my bank (NBD) toinquire and they said my account will 'most probably' not get frozen but they cannot garauntee. I don't have any loans but do have some money outstanding on my CC- although I have enough savings to pay that without using my final settlement. They did recommend that I pay my credit card off and then cancel the card, as they will most definitely freeze the amount that you are able to spend on it-this is to avoid you maxing it out and then doing a runner.

If you are looking for something a little more hard core, I would suggest you look at Fitness Zone gym-in cluster R JLT. They are fully equipped for the more hardcore trainers- might be slightly more expensive but from what I have herd thy have amazing equiptment- all you could ever wish for :) Yes Tribe fit is quite near, it's just behind the Marina mall I think.

I know they do have another branch in Al Fattan in Marina too, but never been to that one- it's still quite new. Do you want to know the rates of what I'm paying at FF or what the rates will be at the new gym-Tribe Fit? At FF I was paying 399pm but then I took a year in advance for 2999- so works out to only 249pm which I thought was actually very good. I'm not sure on the new gym yet but if you have a look on their Website you might find their rates. Oh and the General Manager of Tribe fit was actually the manager at FF before but left as she could see the gym was going down and decided to do her own thing. FF is more of a social club rather than a gym!! The guys in there are always gawking etc. irritates me...hence I just do the classes and avoid the free weight area.

Yes I go to fidelity fitness- been going there since they opened. It used to be brilliant but now they have gone down- all the good staff were apparentky fired all in one go. The only reason I go there now is because they offer the les mills classes-which I love! I am waiting for Tribe Fit to open in the marina and will be surely joining there as they will also offer the les mills classes. That said, the location of FF is great so it's a Pitty they have gone down hill

Try the restaurants in Souk Madinat Jumeirah-the ones on the water front, you see the fireworks display form the Burj Al arab, I know The Meat Co is only charging 500 per adult and 75 for children, which is not too bad considering the prces other places are charging.

Hi Chiara- firstly I would just like to say I'm deeply sorry for your loss, nothing can ever prepare you to feel such pain and sorrow! I too went through a similar experience, except mine was a baby boy and had trisomy 21- Downs. If you would like to ever chat about it to someone who knows what you are going through, please feel free to email me- Joanneslmn at yahoo dot com I know it might not feel like it now but with time it gets better x

Do you think he will get angry at you for reading the emails? If so, then I would rather not, look at this way, he obviously feels/knows that he has nothing to hide from you, hence giving you the go ahead to access all his emails. If you feel that he will understand your curiosity and perhaps he would have done the same thing, then ask him calmy why he didnt defend you when she said xxxx about you. If he says because he wanted to kept the peace and she is not worth arguing with, then leave it at that! say ok but please next if she says anything bad about me again I the future I would appreciate that you tell her to rather not say anything if she can't say something nice.

Don't waste your money!!!! They have a selection of green salad, bread and off cut pieces of meat! Had my birthday there last week with a few friends- firstly they messed up my reservation, the staff were unhelpful, rude and just plain useless! @ 295 AED per person, You are better off spending your money elsewhere. There are plenty of other places that do buffet style with drinks included.

I did my car re-registration yesterday and did not need a copy of my visa, they didn't even ask for my EID, just my current registration card and proof of insurance. It was a simple process and was done in 30mins.

Nadia, not sure if you are interested or not but I know someone who is currently looking into opening a gym in JLT, he has found a location, done his costs and the business Plan is all set out but his investor just fell through. Not sure if you have any background in running a gym, but perhaps I could put you in touch with him, he has over 9 years experience in running a gym and is an avid body builder, actually just came 6th in Mr. Natutal Olympia in Australia, and a great personal trainer! Let me know if this is of any interest to you and I can post my email address here for you. <em>edited by candyfloss on 23/09/2012</em>

There are aspects that are different in male and female weight loss. Is he exercising at all? In short, men are larger and have more muscle than women due to the hormone- testosterone. They are genetically designed to have a higher percentage of muscle and less fat. Muscle burns calories/fat. The key is to build muscle and exercise regularly in conjunction with a high protein diet and 5-6 small meals a day. If you want a recommendation of a PT who is also a certified dietician, let me know and I will post you his details.

Hi LS, If you do a search on here, you will see my previous posts recommending a personal trainer. He is truly amazing and has had great results with all his clients, including myself! my story is long but I could not recommend him more! He can definitely give you a cheaper price than 250 ph-that's just silly money! so depending on your location or if you can meet him at the gym he trains all his clients at, you can probably negotiate him down to 150-180 ph, also the difference with him is that he charges weekly, not monthly for set amount of weekly sessions, so there is no binding contract, this is because he believes that if he is not the right PT for someone he does not want to have make them feel uncomfortable to have to continue cause money is paid. Sometimes finding the best PT for your needs and goals is a bit of a hit and miss at first. Give him a call 055 603 4558 Abdel, he will also give you a free initial assesment and if you decide he is right for you, he will create a special diet plan and schedule based on your goals/needs :) Goodluck
