Gym Motivation!

Recently I have been more conscious of not being comfortable about my weight. And you would think that since i feel this way and all that that would be motivation enough to get my butt to the gym.

However, that is not the case with my situation. I am struggling now more than ever to motivate myself to get to the gym. I either make hundreds of excuses not to go, go for like 10 minutes and then give up or the old excuse "i will just go tomorrow" but tomorrow never comes.

I've read many websites on tips to get yourself motivated though they don't seem to be working. I'm starting to think that i'm never going to be happy with my weight. However, i cannot complain about it too much as i won't do anything about it.

Moving forward - I am looking into going to more workout classes and they may get me more motivated to go and they can burn loads more calories than the boring routine of the gym.

Here's hoping i can motivate myself to go and finally be happy with myself.

Thanks for Reading

  1. I used to struggle, too. The key is to find something that really excites you (for me it used to be Tae-Bo) and go for about 10 times in a row. After that people there will know you and ask where you have been when you miss a class. Great Motivation.

  2. I've tried the classes with friends, however, find friends to be unreliable so i like to just go myself. Feel like I'm too unfit for a class and don't want to embarrass myself. I need to get out of this mindset though!

    Thanks for the advice!

    Love stef

Slimming World - Week 2

My first week back at Slimming World and I would say that it was a complete success! 99% of the time I was on plan with just one day where a Nandos may have happened!  It paid off! My first weigh in and I lost 2.5lbs! I am delighted, it just goes to show you that if you stick to it then it pays off and you will see the results that you want. If I lose 2.5lbs every week I will be one happy girl! Lets hope this week I am just as determined as I was last week! Start Weight - 12Stone 12.5lbs Current Weight - 12Stone 10lbs To Target - 1 Stone 10lbs Thanks, Stef x

Mario Badescu Make Up Remover

For many months now I have been using a waterproof mascara as I feel like it hold a better curl and last a lot longer without dropping or shortening the curl. One thing I could not stand and quite frankly dreaded was having to take the mascara off to apply a fresh coat, I used to spend ages tugging at my lashes to try and get all the product off but for some reason my lashes just never felt clean, I always felt like there was still a coat of mascara on them. I searched the shops for removers that were specific to taking off waterproof mascara and even they did not seem to work either.  I loved how to mascara looked and I did not want to have to try and find another mascara that looked as good. I was looking through Beauty Bay a few months back and found the brand Mario Badescu and I remembered watching a video of Zoe where she spoke and raved about how good the brand was. Since I had tried everything else I didn't think it would hurt to give their waterproof ...

2017 Goals!

I am the worst person ever for sticking to any goals that I set myself. I either just give up days after setting them or I totally forget that I set them at all. But this year I want to be different, I want to write my Goals for 2017 down and try really hard to tick them off and actually stick to them throughout the whole year. I sat down a few days back and really thought about the things in 2016 that made me not happy and change this habit in 2017 and make my goals achievable.  Goal Number 1 - To stick to Slimming World the entire year. I joined Slimming World in December of 2015 and for the majority of the year I was pretty good and stuck to it about 80% of the time - resulting in me losing 1stone3lbs in total. However, over the last 2 months I have totally fallen off the wagon and eating everything in sight - so that weight I lost is probably all back on now. So, I am making this happen this year and going to rejoin my class on Thursday and will be to target by t...
