My precioussssss~

Friday, January 31, 2014
I got a text from Dream Fitness the other day, saying that my access card has arrived. They had such a busy January that they run out of them, so I had to wait for my baby for a while! I mean I had access to the gym without it as the door has been open because of the shortage, but just having...

Getting excited about lunch boxes now!

Thursday, January 30, 2014
I bumped into something so cute and handy at work yesterday - versatile lunch boxes! Sistema has a range called To Go, a very colourful range of BPA free plastics (includes soup mugs, sandwich boxes etc.)! Just the thought of it being BPA free made me want it, but the size and flexibility of it sold it to me. And obviously can't argue...

Filming in the freezing cold!

Monday, January 27, 2014
After a very long soak in the bath earlier tonight I'm feeling human enough to write! It's been a very long day today, but more about that in a bit. I'm still (getting just a bit annoying now!) recovering from my hip injury, but just couldn't resist going for a walk yesterday. In a way a bad idea as I did feel a...

Nesting!

Friday, January 24, 2014
It's been a fun few days! We got to mess around with film cameras at uni yesterday (I felt like Chris looked hilarious with it as he's so tiny) and create short intros. The task was to drop something from a height and film it from two angles at the same time, then mash it all up into one seamless intro. The guys...

What an insane start to the year!

Wednesday, January 22, 2014
So far 2014 has really given me some incredibly exciting stuff to deal with! While physically I haven't been able to do what I want (hip injury still reminding me of its existence every now and then), other areas of my life are going full speed ahead! The biggest thing by far is us moving house, but I've rambled on about that enough...

Happy days!

Monday, January 20, 2014
As I mentioned yesterday, we are moving house soon. Well, it's official now! :) We are looking into moving into the new place by the start of February. This is so very exciting, our first flat together! This does of course mean a tedious trip to Ikea in the near future - I'm really not looking forward to hours of trodding through the...

Final target date set!

Sunday, January 19, 2014
I've kind of had an idea of when I want to reach my target weight by. Ever since I started I had the magical time frame of one and a half years in mind and with my current pace I'm sticking to that target pretty well. Originally I thought that it'd be nice to be done with losing weight by end of June,...

How I got started

Saturday, January 18, 2014
I've had quite a few people ask me how I got to the point where I am today. On top of that I see a constant flow of new threads on my regular forum about how to lose weight / get back in shape and what's a good diet for you. A lot of people seem to think that starving yourself is the...

I had a good look around for a few days and had a go with most of the features offered by the site, and I can most definitely recommend WLR for anyone who needs...

Pancake Friday!

Friday, January 17, 2014
I've had an insane craving for pancakes for a few days now and I finally caved in! We didn't have any eggs and I kept forgetting to get some but now that problem is resolved. There's a lot of eggless recipes out there but I don't trust them, for me it has to be the traditional Finnish recipe or not at all! Pancakes...

Involuntary rest week

Friday, January 17, 2014
To start off my week I managed to injure my hip somehow! I've got absolutely no clue of how I managed that but since Monday my hip has been incredibly sore and walking causes very nasty stinging pain all across my left hip. Hooray for feeling old and fragile. And I think I managed to make it worse yesterday. I didn't feel any...

Noom Weight Loss Coach review

Wednesday, January 15, 2014
Looking for a review of Noom Pro? Click here! Apologies for the delay in starting my fitness app series, but better late than never! Noom was the very first fitness app I ever downloaded last year. Since then the app has developed leaps and bounds and I feel like my old review really doesn't do it any justice! There's no escaping the fact...
