Hope you’re well!
I’d like to say, as cheesy as this is, I know, but thanks to everyone for their comments, supportive feedback and good constructive criticism about my new top quality images! It’s always exciting changing things around and blossoming up in the blogging world! Everyone is completely different, our unique pages bring our individuality together, because without differences the world (and Instagram world) would be boring!
As I’ve been on my 30 day challenge and currently on that squat challenge; I’ve seen a huge improvement in my lifestyle due to food change.
I’m sleeping a lot better- which can affect your mood, we all need to be recharged and most of all I have tonnes of energy, foods look a lot greener and I am having fun prepping my meals the night before, or on the day!
I’m going to start simple with my diet tips and exercise tips. .I’m not a PT/nutritionist, or anything along those lines, I’m no “expert”, everyone seems to be an ‘expert’ these days (ha).. but I’m going along with what worked for me, so If you want to take the advice go ahead!
I am in love with this “Nike Pro”, from Urban Outfitters! Oh and my Nike trainers- 2 years old! Nike is probably one brand I truly love and trust because the quality is outstanding and lasts for so long; styles always change and fits into any shape perfectly!
I actually found it hard to find a gym bra for such a long time- so thank god for this one!
So yes, try it on and see it for yourself!

So that’s a small insight into my routine and what I normally eat. I walk a lot too, so I burn a lot of calories and I always drink water.
Tips:
Our bodies are fixated on having to digest something, so if you feel hungry, you might even be thirsty! So drink plenty of water and stop confusing yourself. Whenever I feel hungry I drink water and if I still feel the same, then I proceed to eat! Most people forget to drink water, or drink anything so they continue to eat and eat, that’s how you gain weight: by not having an portion control!
I always drink water before bed, preferably hot lemon water and it will flush out all the toxins and bad bits from your body in the morning. In the morning gulp more water. Always drink plenty of water throughout the day! Water is so important, but almost always goes unnoticed.
I look at the portions and tell myself to stop being a greedy pig! So make sure you look at how much you’re eating! Smaller portions throughout the day will give you all the energy you need! Stay away from sweets, fizzy drinks! Renew yourself and add some fruits into your water- spice up your life!
I’ll be posting more soon.. so keep an eye out
Stay beautiful
