How to lose weight


I know everybody says to love yourself but sometimes its hard to love your self when you yourself think your body isn't as good as you would like it to. So, what are you gonna do ?? Your going to change some little things in your life.
Disclaimer: Long blog post (=_=)

Okay, so the first thing you want to do is cut out some sugary and fatty drinks/food. The reason why i say SOME is because your body needs sugars and fats, but not a lot.

Here are the things you should cut out of your food/Drink list:
  1. Sweets                         (contains A LOT of sugar)
  2. Chocolates                   (contains A LOT of sugar)
  3. Crisps                          (contains A LOT of salts and fats)
  4. Take away food           (contains TOO much fats)
  5. Fast food                     (contains too much fat)
  6. fried food                     (contains too much fat)
  7. Fizzy drinks/Soda         (contains ALOT of sugar and preservatives)
The things you should eat/drink more are:
  1. Fruits
  2. vegetables
  3. Water
  4. Homemade dishes      (excluding fried foods and desserts)

You know when a box of cookies or a fizzy drink bottle or even bubble gum has a little label that says 'NO ADDED SUGAR'. People would normally jump to the conclusion of thinking that this product is slightly healthier...NO. It isn't healthier, what they mean to say is 'WE HAVEN'T MELTED NORMAL SUGAR FROM SUGAR CANE BUT INSTEAD WE JUST ADDED IN A CRAP LOAD OF FLAVOURED SYRUPS AND A LOT OF GLUCOSE' 
so.....yer, just don't fall for their word trickery (=_=)


Here are some recipes for you to try

Now that you have started to lose weight because you have cut out the the sugars and fat in your life. You will want to tone your body because when you lose wight your stretched out skin will just be...hanging around your body >_<
SO, do exercises that is focused on that point of your body. When i lost weight i HAD to exercise A LOT because, I wouldn't say i was fat, i wasn't actually that chubby anyway i just wanted to lose a little bit of belly fat. I ended up losing 1 stone. This meant that i now weighed 7 stone...i lost this weight just from the dieting and it took me about a month. And because i lost that much in so little time that meant i was "flabby" especially in the bum and belly area -___- 
BUT i just exercised and now I'm fine the exercises i did were from YouTube And the lady i watched was Called Cassey Ho and her channel is called Blogilates. She was SO helpful.
Link to her channel:

i just wanted to say that, you should never push yourself to do things. Never stop eating it's not healthy and all you're going to do is store the weight that your body needs (you will not lose anything)
And if the reason you're losing weight is because of other people and not for yourself, then don't. Don't let any body tell you what you are (if it is a bad thing ^_^)

Anyways, i hope this has been helpful to you

Monthly favourites



so, it is nearly the end of July, and i doubt I'm going to find something GREAT in the next few days. So today I'm going to do a monthly favourites for you, hope you like it :)



OK so the first product i have been lovingggg, is the herbal essence hydration shampoo, conditioner and hair mask. It smells soooo nice and it is truly amazing for my hair.
It makes my hair smell, feel and look really good.
 And probably the best part about these products is that they are insanely cheap. I am a student so the only money i get, is from my monthly allowance.









The next thing i have been loooving is the benefit hello flawless foundation, the coverage is just right and it stays on my face for a good 10 hours (i think) XD
If this product isn't in your budget, you can always opt out for
the Maybelinne 'Wake me up" foundation.
This is a product i have used for nearly 2 years and it is safe to say
that that product is probably one of the best drugstore foundations
i have ever used because, the little shimmer particles can make you
look so much more awake than you actually are BUT on a winters day it could leave you looking like Edward Cullen....the vampire. So bare in  mind.



This next product is just...amazing. It is the Lydia make up brushes.
Now, if you have searched eBay for make up brushes you would
have probably seen these. They are probably one of the most beautiful things i have ever seen...PINK MAKE UP BRUSHES.
(if you are wondering why i didn't take my own picture of the brushes, its because they are quite dirty due to the makeup) But yer they are super soft, and really cheap.










The next product is a food product, and it is yogurt. Yeo Valley

yogurt. The one that i have been loving the most would have to be the raspberry. I do like the strawberry and apricot BUT the aren't as
sweet. The one i hated the most was blueberry because i just don't
like blueberry's in general.





These next few items have been very helpful, because the weather has
been SO hot. So, i got myself some tops,shoes etc.
The white laced shirt i got was from H&M, the grey rolled up
sleeves was from Primark. The shoes that are at the bottom of the picture which you sadly can't see is from top shop and that denim lump you see at the bottom is a denim rucksack i got from Primark as well.
Here are the shoes and bag:




The last thing is probably one of the most important things i need
to share with you. And they are......HETALIA and
FUTURE DIARY. Both these shows are anime, and if you aren't
a big fan of anime.....you should probably watch these shows because
these shows will make you change your mind about anime. Future diary >>>>>
is about 12 people who have cell phones that will tell them the future via email.
These 12 people have to kill each other and the one who survives all the murders will become ''god'' but it gets harder for the 2 main characters because they fall in love with each other, but at the end of the day.....one of them has to kill their opair
but who would it be ???



Hetalia is just so random. It is basically a personification on countries. The main
characters are; Italy, Germany, England, America, China, Japan, Russia, France and Canada.
As you go through the series you meet other characters.



I hope you have enjoyed this blog post
