Things that i need to work on.
I haven’t set myself anything like this since November i think, just little things i need to remember to be the best me i can.
Change up my fitness routine at home and the beginning of every month
Stick to that routine for 30 days, change half way through if there are no results
Take progress pictures everyday i do said workouts so i can compare them at the end
Cut out unnecessary sweet...

I felt the need to change up the workouts i do at home because I’m not seeing much change/progress in my body....
Reading up on BDD (Body Dysmorphic Disorder)
For a while I’ve been poking at my fat and my flab in front of the mirror wishing i could cut massive chunks out and trying to imagine how amazing i could look if i could sculpt my body, pushing and pulling my skin and flab in all directions to see what body could be underneath.
I constantly tell myself and sometimes say out loud to my boyfriend that i don’t deserve pretty things...
Yesterday was amazing! Remember that it's okay to...
Yesterday i went out with my boyfriend, we went to the Trafford centre and watched A Monster In Paris and shared an ice blast drink but he had most of it, had a little walk around then went to TGI Friday’s.
Starter was the Chicken Fajita Nachos and then i had the kick-ass Garden Veggie burger with chips and tangy mayo and he had The Monster burger which was a 12oz burger with chips and...

Little afternoon snack there! and what a brilliant one it is too :D
The oat & Honey are my favourite now after just trying them today haha i don’t feel like i need to try any other flavour, crumbs glorious crumbs over my bed but that’s alright i can clean them away.
Breakfast was 35g of Oatibix flakes, 100ml unsweetened soya milk and one extra large banana.

If you want to lose weight and you think you can...
I’ve lost 38lbs so far, never have i ran or jogged while trying to lose weight because I’m not a natural runner and have never found love for it. I tried it twice in my life for a couple minutes each time and decided it wasn’t for me.
I managed to lose it by cleaning up my diet and doing other form of exercise i.e Zumba, circuit training, kickboxing cardio and now i do...
After that post yesterday my weight this morning...
It went down haha 0.6 lbs so not even one full pound but i was pretty happy. So I’m 3.4lbs away from 9 stone and losing 3 stone in total! that’s pretty cool I’d say.
I need to push myself to workout later after dinner otherwise i know that i won’t do it even though i love the workouts i do and they are fun i just seem to be in one of them moods but snapping out of it and...
So i was thinking about how much change I'm not...
I guess because i look at my body everyday I’m not going to see the changes that other people will see.
But i don’t see any change on or off the scales! and it’s really bugging me. So what i was thinking is, if i see little to no change in my body within a week or two (probably less though because i know what I’m like) then I’m considering cutting down the amount of...
Something that scares me.....
Is still the fact that because I’m doing more exercise and burning more calories, i need to increase the amount of calories i take in in the first place.
It really scares me, why? because i still have the mindset that i need to be eating less to lose weight! gahhhh why do i do this to myself. I know that in the long run this is going to be great for my body and that its getting more energy...
