Goals for July

So this is up a little later then I thought it was going to be, I actually cannot keep up with myself at the moment!

As you all know I moved to Croydon recently so I have been adjusting and settling in. It’s still not quite real that I’m here to be honest but I’m sure it will be soon.

There is a few things that I want to get back into doing that I was doing back home and some new things too.

Gym/exercise
My main thing right now is to get back into going to the gym and doing some physical activity. It's crazy I actually miss going to the gym so I'm hoping that now I'm kind of settled that I will be getting my but back in the gym!

Primark gym wear

Over the last few months or so I have really got back into the gym and my passion for it is coming back. I have been going gym for the past couple years now and it initially to get fit and loose weight but after a while it became more to help with my anxiety and to try keep my mind off things and it definitely does I have noticed I am so much happier and feeling more positive about things although I still have some days where I do feel down but more time it's all good.

The one thing which is a must about leggings for gym is they have to be high waisted and a decent waist band which is slightly tight as there is nothing worse than having a them constantly fall down and your yanking them up in the middle of your walk or run on the treadmill! I like to feel a bit supported but comfortable at the same time. T-shirts/tops at the moment I am not where I want to be in my physical appearance to wear like the fitted tops so I just often pick up a baggy top sometimes even pick them up from the mens section I find them more comfortable.

2018 Mid year update

How crazy we are half way through 2018 already, where has time gone?! Also was it me or did we seem to have the longest winter ever! I never thought spring or summer would ever appear as it just seemed to have dragged on but how much better is it now with the lighter evenings?


I have literally been writing this post for like a month now as I wanted to give you an update on what I'm doing and how I'm feeling, it's good to get it out now and again. The past 5/6 months have been a real eye opener for me I feel like I'm in a good place in life right now. This is not going to be in any particular order in how things happened but I just want to share what my steps were along the way to my new journey

(This is my fav filter!)

My lifestyle has changed recently and for the better! I'm going to the gym about 4/5 times a week which has had a big impact because even on weekends when I'm off I'm still getting up early and instead of laying in bed till like 9/10 I'm actually up and sometimes out the house by 7. I know what your thinking, she's crazy but I don't like wasting my days off anymore I like to get everything I can out of them lol. I get such a happy feeling after a work out and feel like I can face the day with whatever it throws at me. Along with the gym, my eating habits have changed and in the last month or so I've seen results which makes me happier so it's a win win. I am so much happier and see a more positive outcome on life even my manager at work has noticed how relaxed and apart of the team I am instead of being the quiet girl in the corner not really participating in anything and it was really nice to hear.

Late May bank holiday

Another lovely long weekend!! I work in a office Monday to Friday so it's lovely when the bank holidays comes and you get that extra day, it really makes a difference! Even though I think we should have one 3 day weekend a month.

Again this bank holiday I had no plans to do anything I would take it as it comes. See what I got up to...

Goodbye 2016 and hello 2017

Is it me or does it seem like Christmas and New Year's was ages ago?

I may be one of a few who has not made a new years resolution/s, I personally feel if you want to change something in your life then do it when you are ready and not because it's the new year.

I did change a few things in my life for which I feel more positive for. Last year around March/April I made a big change in my life and got a new job, it was such a big step for me as I was in my previous job 5 and a half years so of course you get into a routine. I left because I wasn't happy and at times being there made my anxiety and depression worse, don't get me wrong there was good days and I met some lovely people but the bad days were getting more and more and I had to make a change. It was also interfering with my social and personal life, having to work weekends, bank holidays and Christmas/ New Year's, it just wasn't for me anymore. Since then I have been a lot more happier, I simply work Monday to Friday, I'm able to have more of a social life and see more of my family. I also joined a gym which I've wanted to join one for quite some time but didn't want to do it on my own so me and one of my friends go. I joined the gym because I want to be more healthier, I eat better then I used to (I still enjoy the odd take away now and again) and you know what I actually like the gym, over Christmas we did have a break and I missed it (what is wrong with me?!).

For this next year like I said earlier I have not made any resolutions or targets for anything, I just plan to live my life and be happy.



Have you made any resolutions?
