Gym Update



About a month or so ago I wrote a post saying i was struggling to motivate myself to go to the gym.

So i though i would write an update to keep myself motivated to continue to go.

Since that post i change my workout up a little and have incorporated more weights into my routine, as i felt that the constant cardio was getting a little boring - since adding these in i do feel a lot better about going knowing that i have more than i can do.

I still haven't been going to the classes as although i love going to the gym on my own and prefer it to going with a friend - i don't feel confident enough to go to a class on my own. I do feel that if i find one that i like then i will go more and in return feel more confident about going on my own as i will not feel silly not knowing what i am doing.

Also the weather in Scotland has been a lot better in recent weeks so i've been able to get outside and walk the dogs which is a nice change to being in a gym staring a the four walls.

 I do feel a lot better in myself and have been able to motivate myself to go at least twice a week. However, i am hoping by keeping this up that i will go even more - even if it is only for 45 minutes or so.

I am hoping by writing these posts monthly i can keep myself on track to feeling even more confident in myself

Lip Blams

For a couple of years now I've been suffering with the worst case of dry/cracked lip imaginable. All day I am constantly applying lip balm as my lips without anything covering them is agony. They constantly crack and then bleed, they flake off and to be completely honest it isn't exactly very nice to be talking to someone and feel as though they are just staring at your flakey lips. So since I feel like I am an expert in the field of lip balm as I own and have tried what feel like hundreds over the past two years that I would give you my personal opinion on a few Lip Balm I have tried out recently and wether they were work the money, and if they have done anything to help my lips. 1. La Roche-Posay - Barrier Repairing Balm I initially bought this as I had heard Estee Lalonde rave about how good it was for helping her lips from being so cracked and sore so thought it would help me. I use this every night and lather it on my lips and yes I do think it helps

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
