Diet Plan as Promised

Hello Everyone, So yes, I am ashamed to admit that I have not started my diet on Wednesday as planned, I know, I know, I must have zero willpower or motivation! The truth is there has simply been too much going on the past few days to even begin to think about starting and sticking to the diet. But I have no food arrangements coming up so tomorrow will be the day for me to start properly. I haven't been totally naughty though, Monday evening I attended a Total Workout Class followed by Total Strength Class so I don't feel as bad on myself as maybe I should. Here is the diet plan as promised in my earlier post: Breakfast Lunch Dinner Day 1 1 slice dry toast with tomato Fresh Fruit, any amount 2 hard boiled eggs, salad and grapefruit Day 2 Boiled egg and Grapefruit Grilled Chicken with tomatoes and 1 slice dry toast Grilled Steak and Salad Day 3 Boiled egg and Grapefruit Fresh Fruit, any amount 2 Grilled lamb chops, sa

Must Have Baby Products - Top Ten List

UPDATED So is this is slightly over due, however I am still really passionate about the products I chose for when I had my baby. There are literally so many choices when you are becoming a mum and it can really seem overwhelming and sometimes confusing as to which products are the best or which ones you really need, and indeed, which are a waste of money. I did alot of research whilst I was pregnant to find the exact things I wanted that were going to be the best choice for baby and also make my life as a new parent as easy as possible. So here is a list of some of my must have baby products. 1.

The Cocoonababy is a sleep nest that helps to prevent reflux, flat head syndrome and the startle reflex. This was certainly the case for me and Karmen! She slept amazingly in it from day 1

Weight Loss Journey Part One

This is my first ever blog post, so forgive me if it's short or poorly written, hopefully it's still interesting! It's been over a year now since giving birth and I still have not shifted my baby weight. There really is no more excuses now, I know what I need to do the hard part is actually doing it! I have found a diet that works however it is difficult sticking to it, I will post the diet in a separate post, and if anyone had tried or is trying I would love to know your experiences! In the meantime, here is a link to where I originally found the  Diet Plan I will also be making exercise a big part of my weight loss mission now, that way if I do slip up I won't feel as bad as I can justify it with exercise! Here's the statistics, I have 28 lbs (2 stone) to lose in total ideally by the 14th December, which gives me 7 weeks to achieve my goal. Doing a calculation I should be losing 4lb per week. So here goes! (Beginning Wednesday by the way as I have a girl
