Going back to the Gym: After Lockdown

September 15, 2020      Leave a Comment

going back to the gym after lockdown
Hello everyone ❤
It seems like forever ago when the gyms shut at the start of Lockdown back in March. During the lockdown, I have to say my fitness levels did suffer as I didn’t do as much exercise with restrictions and also me being super nervous of the virus put a dampener on things. I have been a member of the gym for a few years now so I was wondering how it would be when it opened up again. 
England opened their gyms in July but here in Scotland, it was nearer the end of August for them to open again with restrictions of course. Now I have to admit I was super nervous going back to the gym after all the time off and of course, the worry of COVID 19 was niggling in the back of my mind.

Love Locks by Lydia – Hair Growth Liquid: Does It actually Work? | Review

May 16, 2020      9 Comments

Hello Everyone!
When it comes to hair vitamins I am always a bit dubious on their claims in which they will help grow your hair faster and overall improve your hair health. Not only that but quite a lot of the times they can be expensive and most of them are pills or gummies which arent my cup of tea.
I have tried a few different products to try help my hair quality over the years but I can’t rate any of them. I was kindly sent a bottle of ‘Love Locks Lydia’s Liquid Hair Vitamins‘ to try! At first, I wasn’t entirely consistent as I have a memory of a goldfish sometimes. But I got the gist and had it with breakfast.

I have got myself back blogging again after a busy few weeks of moving home and then being struck down with the sickness bug, thankfully we are settled now and I am feeling so much better now.

I have seen these around quite a lot on social media so I have been pretty excited to give these a try for myself since I am rather fussy when it comes to supplements.

May Fitness Update | 5lbs down!

June 4, 2019      1 Comment

healthy dessert
So last month I decided to get myself back into healthier eating habits and a fitness routine. I have many reasons for wanting to lose weight but the biggest one was my clothes were getting tighter and another reason being I had no idea how many calories I was actually eating.  I do know it was a lot because this lass loves her snacks and takeaways…yum!. I am not saying eating takeaways and snacks are wrong but with me, it was more often than not and sometimes without thinking, it was more like a habit than anything.
I didn’t actually do intense exercise last month but I did up the amount of walking I did and also added my fitness app on my phone to track my walking and also to measure the actual exercise I did at home such as cleaning.  I also rejoined the gym and have been already, can’t wait to go again.
With just healthier eating and walking more I have managed to lose 5lbs which I am so happy with! I am happy I am keeping motivated.

Healthier Snacking with Roughs

June 3, 2019      1 Comment

Healthier Snacking with Roughs
I have started to exercise more and think more about what I eat. I could easily before end up eating way more than I thought because of snacking on too many not so healthy snacks. I am a huge fan of snacking so changing up that routine to more wholesome AND delicious choices has been a journey in itself. Saying all that it is been fun finding healthier alternatives and also trying new foods that I probably wouldn’t of before.
Satisfied Snacks kindly sent me 3 cans of their salad crisps called ‘Roughs’ to try out. Now you may be wondering why on earth are these in cans… well wonder no more. They put their salad crisps in cans because they have put their foot down and said no to plastics and used cans instead which are widely and infinitely recycled.
They have 5 delicious flavours to choose from, all of which are under 100 calories. Each can have at least 1 serving of vegetables, which is great at contributing to your 5 a day. They are also made out of 100% natural ingredients, no nasties.

I've heard of probiotics in food but its the first I've heard of probiotics in food but its the first I've seen it in skincare ( I'm aware I might be late to the party with this 😂) 

(gifted) This is the new @antipodesskincare Culture Probiotic Night Recovery Water Cream 🌱
The cream is made with good bacteria and hyaluronic acid for calm, hydrated, healthy-looking skin. It smells gorgeous and feels very refreshing on the skin. I've used it for a few weeks now and I love applying it before bed as it feels cool to apply and over time helps skin feel hydrated. 
It's 100% natural origin and vegan friendly 🌱
Have you tried this yet?
