I did finish about a month ago and i did more than 30 days and i did it! I'm proud of myself but i don't have the last ten days result, reason being is some things have been happening recently and i didn't take the pictures/weight or measurements. I know that this is a disappointing end to something ive worked so hard on but unfortunately thats the way it is.....But hey! i done it! I'd recommend it for anyone who wants to tone up and exercise.
I'm going to admit i put the weight i lost back on because of circumstances however, stomach tone looks loads better then before though so all is not totally lost! I'm going back into healthy eating starting from today! woop! I'm aiming for a stone of weight loss at first and i'm going to document it on here.
To track diet and exercise, I will be using an app on my phone called myfitnesspal also available online at http://www.myfitnesspal.com

Lee Stafford Poker straight flat iron spray - review
Price: Boots 5.89
The first thing i done when i picked this up was smell it. Might be strange, but to like a product, I feel I have to like the smell of it too. This smells nice, it does remind me of a scent but I cant place it. I spray this this all over my hair after ive washed and conditioned it. I then blowdry and take sections of my hair and spray this again, then straighten my hair.
My original hair (before straightening) is curly and prone to puffing in heat, its not afro but my dad has afro hair so my hair isn't the easiest hair to deal with. However this product makes my hair smooth, shiny and straighter than without use, smells good and im glad I found this product!
Holy Grail product? Yes, I think so!!
5/5!

My first nail art attempt
Seeing as I'm in no way artistic, I'm really pleased with my first nail art attempt which I did completely free hand. I've been so inspired by the latest nails art looks that I decided to create my own look.
I'm hoping to get myself some bits that will make this easier to create, including stencils, nail art pens, the cheaper version of minx and loads more gems!
I created this look by using a black polish I cant even tell you what it is as the label has completely worn, Models Own in Champagne and Avon matte in Violetta and adding Urban decay rocks!
I'm really loving the nails own polish in champagne! As they say practice makes perfect and I hope to perfect my nail art quite a bit!!

Boots Haul - and a bit of reviewing!
I couldn't resist when I saw 75% off Ruby and Millie, the deal went round the whole of Money saving expert so I only bagged myself 3 items but hey better than nothing! I had also been 'fantasy shopping' only with two items so I got them too as they were left in my shopping bag.
Ruby and Millie Complete Bronze kit - Was £15.00 Now £3.75
So far I've tried this out once and so far so good! and what a bargain price!
Ruby and Millie lip gloss in coral Was £8.50 Now £3.00
Tried once looks clear on my lips but they are quite pigmented..id have wanted more colour on my lips for £8.50 but happy I paid £3. I'll stick with it and check back!
Ruby and Millie nail colour blue was £10.00 now £2.50
Haven't had a chance to use this yet have loads of nail vanish's to try at the moment! The reason the Ruby and Millie is so cheap as its being discontinued from boots stores...BYE BYE Ruby and Millie, will you miss them? To be honest this was my first ever purchase from this brand!
Models Own Nail Polish in Champagne -£5.00
Fabulous colour I do have a picture of this on my nails on my iPhone, but camera and scanner wizard keeps telling me there's no pictures on my device and there certainly is! Check back ill try and get the picture of this up!

Boots also sent me a Champneys sample which was nice and talking of samples here's my freebies from Naturisimo
I really like the Juice Beauty products i've used so far!
Have a good day

10 things you may not know about me!
I tend to keep my private life to myself and i don't rant because i like to keep this 'my happy little place' so I thought id do a little blog post with 10 things you may not know about me! Just so my lovely readers can get a taste of who I am..
1. I used to practice Tae Kwon Do, I was 1/4 of the way to black belt and won a bronze medal for sparring.
2. I'm half Jamaican
3. I've swam a half marathon for cancer, I did train but not hard enough I never swam 13 miles until the big day, its a charity close to my heart, my mum died of cancer when I was 12
4. I was once rescued by a lifeguard, I couldn't swim at the time and I was trying to rescue a friend! we still speak on Facebook today!
5. I once thought you could paddle in a river, I got a cut on my foot and a few days later I went to Wales, i ended up is a Welsh hospital my foot was infected.....eurghhh!
6. I got engaged to my partner (that I first met when I was 16) in Canary Wharf London
7. I have two sisters and one brother! Lia, Mica and Evan, Lia and Mica is an anagram of my daughters name, can you work it out?
8. I was in the movie Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone and yes you can see me! Cringe!!
9. I've never broken any bones ever....and I hope to keep it this way! I have a ganglion on my right hand hence why you always see my left in photos!
10. I'm rubbish at remembering what films i've watched. If people ask me if i've watched a certain film 9 times out of ten i need the plot to be able to answer!
So yes! I hope some of these are slightly surprising or interesting! and do link me if you make a post like this too!

My Weekend
So without getting into the palava that is my personal life right now, i still managed to have a good weekend!
The weekend started with a fabulous trip to the local pick your own and at the moment strawberries are in season so we picked two baskets full.
The weekend started with a fabulous trip to the local pick your own and at the moment strawberries are in season so we picked two baskets full.
Baby E getting very involved
Then we went to the park
'Baby E', 'M' and I having fun on the see-saw
We then went up to St Albans to see all my extended family which was fab! we had some drinks and a barbie on the go and it was just a lovely chilled out day seeing everyone!
Baby E at the BBQ being gentle and lovely with my newest cousin 'C'
My auntie has two children and so do I. The age gap isn't to different and it was lovely to see mine and my aunties children getting along so well. M is in love with my other aunties child 'O'. O is in senior school and a gymnastics sensation and i think 'O' is 'M's idol.
I wrapped up my weekend with a trip to Costco, lol not the most exciting thing ever but don't you just love it! Muffins and danish's the size of your head!
So today has been like Christmas! I had a voucher to spend at house of Frazer so i spent that and when i got home most of my deliveries turned up. House of Frazer haul will be up soon. Haven't got itunes installed on this pc and im away from home still so i cant upload from my I phone how annoying!
Have a good evening
