My Fitness Week 1

 

Hey Guys!!

 

I'm actually a little nervous to do this post as I find it very hard to motivate myself to get fit. I have been seeing a lot of fitness posts around and reading a lot of them!! So I am taking the plunge and doing my own Fitness series :)

 

In roughly 3 months I am off on holiday to Corfu and I can not wait to go!! But I am not in the best of shape and would like to tone up a bit ready for it :) It doesn't help that chocolates, cakes and anything sweet is so tempting, so I am trying my hardest to make healthier decisions :)

 

I am not going by my weight as I don't want to lose weight as I am a healthy weight for my height according to the Dr :) So I have measured my waist, stomach and thighs as I feel I will see more progress that way :) I have taken a picture of my measurements and then we can all see the progress I am hopefully going to make :) So these are the measurements at the moment.

 

Waist 33ins; Stomach 32ins; Thighs 20ins; Weight 8st 5lb

 

As I said above I am not worried about my weight but more my measurements.

 

Onto how I am going to get into shape!! I haven't pictured it but my Mum has a treadmill so whenever I am at my Mums', which tends to be 5 times a week, I am going to do half an hour on there. I have been going on there for a while and been doing the pre-programmed sessions on there. I started out on Programme 1 and am now on Programme 2 so will be doing that until I feel its not really doing anything.

 

I have also downloaded an App onto my phone called Runtastic Six Pack and it is aimed to get you a Six Pack in 6 weeks.

 

 



I am going to be starting this today and you start on Level 1, then each week go up a level. I have the free version but you can upgrade it for a price, I'm not sure how much as it doesn't say. I'm hoping I'm going to see some progress on my stomach area and you never know I might end up with a Six Pack ha ha

 

Eating wise I am pretty good, I stick to 3 meals a day, sometimes I do forget to have breakfast but I am going to make sure I have breakfast every morning from now on. I just need to make sure I eat more fruit as I don't eat a lot of fruit, instead of eating sugary sweets all the time :)

 

I hope you enjoyed this post and will tune in every week to see my progress :)

 

I will also post up healthy meals I am eating and possibly some recipes, if you would like to see that?

 

See You Soon!!

My Playlist #1

Hey Guys!!

 

Lately all I have been doing is listening to music and decided it was time to tidy up my playlist on my iPod. Lets just say there was over 100 songs and I hardly listened to any of them!!!

 

I thought the best thing to do was delete all the songs I had on there and start from scratch :) I have a wide range of musical taste from old school music like Guns and Roses all the way to Disney songs.

 

I decided to go on to the Radio 1 website and see what was in the top 40, as you can listen to a little clip of the song and then if I wanted it I would get that song, by doing this I ended up with songs I really liked and haven't stopped listening to them so far.

 

And here are the lucky 22 :)

 

 

The one after Disneys Frozen is Tinie Tempah - Tsunami :)

 

As you can see there is a wide range of different genres of music. Out of all these songs though I do have my favourite and in this case I have 3 that I just love listening to :)

 



 

We have A Great Big World & Christina Aguilera - Say Something, Christina Perri - Human and Frozen - Let It Go.

 

These 3 songs I absolutely love and could listen to them all day and actually as I am typing this post I am listening to them :)

 

What is on your playlist at the moment? & What's your favourite song at the moment?

 

See You Soon!!



My Week #1

 

Hey Guys!!

 

This the first post that will be a weekly 'series' shall we say of what I got up to in the week in pictures :) They will be pictures off my iPod, phone and maybe some off my camera :) The week will go Sunday to Saturday for me to then post the following Sunday, if that makes any sense haha

 

This week has been a bit of an up and down week to be honest, also it has been my first full week in my new job which I am absolutely loving :) I am so happy that I am in a job that I completely enjoy as I have had jobs in the past where I really don't enjoy them.

 

It has also been full of some relaxing time and lots of cuddles while watching films and I love the quality time we spend together whether its the cats or my husband :)

 

I have also discovered things this week that were fun and also not so fun. I have come to the realisation that I am only keeping people in my life that bring positivity to my life rather than negativity, as I will end up just running myself down and I don't need that :)

 

Anyway lets get on with the pictures :)

 

1 - Sunday - I took this picture as I had straightened my hair the day before, I'm pretty lucky my hair stays straight for a while, and just loved how nice it looked and how nice the length is at the moment, though I will probably get it tidied up soon :)

 

2 - Monday - This was while I was waiting for my bus to go to work, I really need to learn to drive, but this was the only really nice day we had this week. I loved how the sun rose over the house and thought it was a perfect photo opportunity, though it took me ages to take it as there were so many cars going past :)

 

3 - Tuesday - I decided today I just needed to relax and just completely chill out, so I run myself a nice hot bath, lit some lovely smelling candles and just chilled in the bubbles, I definitely felt better after that :)

 

4 - Wednesday - This was quality cuddle time with Jacob our older cat, he very much loves a cuddle especially with Llewellyn, he can't sit for 5 minutes without Jacob jumping on his lap :)

 

5 - Thursday - This was my fun discovery. I was a little bored this evening and when I'm bored I like to go on Google Street View and look at houses I can only dream of living in, only I then came across me walking to my Mums' I had a little giggle for a while about this :)

 

6 - Friday - I think I'm a little obsessed with candles, the two little ones in the middle are my Yankee Candles and are cinnamon scented, my lord they a gorgeous :) I just felt like lighting some candles this evening and just chilled and read my book for a bit by candle light :)

 

7 - Saturday - My healthy eating is going slightly well hiding box of chocs as we speak I have been having regular meals this week, I'm normally rubbish at making sure I eat at regular times but I have been doing well :)

 

That's my week :) Its definitely been a candle obsessed one haha but nice and relaxing, hopefully this week will be a little better though, we shall soon find out :)

 

I hope that you enjoyed this post as it is the first of many :)

 

What do you like to do to relax through the week?

 

See You Soon!!
