Afternoon all, hope your well. I've had no time this week to do any blogging so this is the first post where I have some energy to do it!
This week I wanted to look at the role of home entertainment as a means of weight loss. I'm focusing in on the Wii Fit as this is one of the things that I have at home!
For people who don't know, the Wii Fit is a game which has been developed by nintendo to encourage people to get regular exercise through fun activities, perfect if you hate the gym or the thought of exercising in public. Through small, differentiated challenges you are encouraged to move just a bit more ad are rewarded with new levels opening. It also comes with a built in personal trainer who talks you through some of the more toning exercises. Using the Wii Fit board, your weight and BMI can be worked out and tracked each week, and its quite fun to work out your Wii Fit age and try and reduce it!
Personally, I don't think this helps me to burn calories and lose weight, but then I exercise quite a lot, however if you are returning to exercise then this would break you in gently. Its quite nice to use it to track weight loss, and it is an incentive to burn more when you see the little graph go down!
Over all this is an expensive method, however if you already have one but have forgotten about it until now then why not get it back out. Its fun and everyone can be involved!
Until next time, thanks for reading xx

Evening all, hope your well, thankfully it's Friday which means another fitness post!
This week I wanted to write about food. As some one who is over weight, food is a big deal with me, I have a love hate relationship with it, especially snack foods.
I first read about Graze in a magazine and thought it would be a waste of money and I wouldn't like anything. However on a forum there was a discussion about it, and loads of people were posting codes for free boxes and raving about it! So I decided to do a bit more research, and visited the website and the principle of it was great:
4 perfectly balanced snacks designed to regulate blood sugar abs fill you up! So for a free box, I signed up!
That was 6 months ago and I'm still loving them. I get one box a week, and these are my snacks for school, I need them to get me through the end of the day until tea part of the day!
This was my box this week:
Its a real mix of chocolate, berries, nuts and crackers! My favourite it the Jaffa Cake box, I actually had that today!
For £3.49 per box, you can really go wrong! The box comes with a lovely leaflet with all the nutritional information I need for my weight watchers. It also gives me an update of what other things I could get. I also get an e-mail to let me know, and to ask me to rate what I get.
The website allows me to rate what I like and don't like, as well as letting me say what I love!
If you want to know more then go to the website here. If you want to receive your own box, and fancy a free box and then a half price box then use my code: Y584TMM.
So here it is, another week closer to half term, and another fitness post. I hope your all well, and thanks for reading xx
Evening all. I know its really late but I have been trying to write this all day on my phone and have only got half way through each time!
This is my make up look for work today!
I used Maybelline Superstay 24hr Foundation, Benefit Benetint and Make Up Academy Professional Palette in Starry Night. Mascara was Boots 17 Falsifeye and black gel liner by No 7
I'm trying to get into the habit of wearing different colours on my eyes without looking too made up at work! It doesn't look like too much thankfully.
I've refreshed my hair again with another semi-permanent hair dye. Would you want a post on my hair colour or not?
So here is a little Face of the Day, I'm getting better at these! What do you think, I really appreciate all the comments you leave!
Thanks for reading xx
