Changing My Lifestyle

When I first joined Slimming world I weighed 10 stone 6lbs and My worst nightmare would have been to step foot in a gym! 

I now weigh 9 stone on the button and if I don't make it to the gym at least 4 times a week I don't feel myself!

20lbs may not seem like that much but it has made such a difference to my life.

I have never felt healthier, happier or fitter and I never want to feel any different! 

It's one thing to look good but to feel good is what we should all be aspiring to, there are so many diets/ nutritional plans etc. out there and everyone has different opinions and thinks their way is the best way!

I am certainly no fitness guru but I would say do what works best for you, do what makes you feel good and don't give up! 

There have been times when I felt like giving up but I just had to remind myself how sluggish, tired and lazy I felt before I decided to change my lifestyle! 

Keep going and even when you don't see results remember if you keep working hard and challenging yourself you will soon see them! 

If you always do what you've always done you will always be the same!

Here are some pictures of my journey...

    Do you mind me asking what height you are? I'm the same weight looking to lose a bit but I can't imagine being able to get to nine stone even though I'd love to! I think I'd have to sacrifice a lot of my muscle mass! 😕

Cocoa Brown 1 Hour Tan Review

Image
With so many tans on the market claiming to be "the best tan ever" it's hard to know which ones are worth trying!  So many come with expensive price tags but that is not always an indication as to how true their claims are. As a pale Irish girl constantly seeking a tan I have tried numerous brands and formulas but never finding that "perfect" one. I have tried them all, from the high end brands to their cheaper counterparts, tanning wipes (disaster), gels, spray tans the list goes on and on!  I found tans that were beautiful when first applied but left me looking scaley after the first wash. Then there were some that turned out perfect but just took too many applications to get the right shade (not too light, not orange, not too dark..is that too much to ask for??!)  So on my never ending quest to find the "one" I decided to try the much talked about and much hyped up Cocoa Brown. The main reason I decided to give it a go was the m

All About The Base...

Image
When it comes to make up the most important part of my routine is the skin.  Yes I love a smokey eye, winged liner and perfectly arched brows but a flawless base is what brings any look together! In this blog I will tell you about the products I rely on to achieve that flawless finish. Primer:  I start off with MAC Prep & Prime Skin.  This evens out my skin tone, reduces redness and creates a smooth base for foundation while hydrating the skin. Concealer: Like many girls I suffer from breakouts, particularly on my chin.  I like to use Mac Pro Longwear Concealer to cover those spots before I apply foundation. If you are yet to find a concealer that covers your blemishes then this one is for you! Foundation: My all time favourite is Estée Lauder Double Wear. It gives the most amazing coverage and it does not budge.  It's heat proof, sweat proof, dance proof and the perfect foundation for nights out or occasions where you want your make
