updaterino-changes?

hello chaps

just thought about giving you all a little update!

Today was my 10th day of the 30 day shred...I feel great!

I started out doing solely level 1..at first i used my tiny pink

half a kilogram handweights which were a good start but 

pretty easy :) As I didn't have any larger weights, I used

1.5 L bottles of water...they weren't 100% full but 

BOY they were heavier than the weights, I tell you!

The sheer size of them and the water swishing and spolishing

around in them made them quite uncomfortable to work with

(were hand for a quick drink though!) 

so, yesterday I went 

ahead and bought something off my wishlist: the Davina hand

weights! They are quite big, but they are in pretty colours,

and were £9.99 instead of £14.99 hip hip hooray!

Since Sunday I have been mixing up different weights 

with levels 1 and 2..level 2 with the water bottles was

just a killer..so this morning I did level one with my 1.13kg

(about 2.5 lbs) dumbbells and tomorrow is level 2 with the 

same ones!

Level 2 is evil..

BRILLIANT

but evil.

but I love it! exercise makes you feel so good about 

yourself, seriously, it's worth a shot!

ooooooooh

also, on Saturday I tried yoga with some friends!

we went to a class which wasn't really beginner, but it

was f a b u l o u s !

I really enjoyed it and have taken some moves home for

a relaxing stretch after my morning work out.

I don't think it's for everyone but I feel it improves posture,

it tones and it just makes you feel good.

Don't get me wrong, I still like more jumpy-a-roundy

and pumping-the-muscle and raising-the-heartrate stuff

-wow that was a lot of dashes---h-e-h-e-

okie doke, well that was my update for you guys n dolls

oh! also..I am thinking of changing my blog background etc.

I don't know if I like the black so much...please let me know

what you would prefer...you are the ones reading it (I hope;)

also, let me know if you have any flat tum tum tricks I need

to know about ;) but I reckon it's all health and fitness, right?

If you've made it this far... congrats!

I think you deserve a picture of some sort...words and words

non stop can make your brain frazzle sometimes 

yep, random!

hope it made you smile!

(and no, It's not my cat...I just thought it was funny!)

10 Minute Solution: Blast Off Belly Fat [DVD]

topshop creme blush..not 100% sure what colour yet ;)

 

maxi dress (saw some beautiful ones in portobello market..) and maybe some shorter

ones from primark or something..this is more in the long run really as Summer isn't

quite here yet..:(

 

 

but this american apparel dress is pretty 'JAZZY'

and I find the 'skater' fit flattering for me..not sure about the

colour yet..or if I'll get it at all..but hey..it's a nice thought :)

 

 

Also: I have seen this pic of Jessica Stroup (the girl that plays

Silver in 90210) wearing this dress on google images...at

least I think it's this dress...that's the only reason I want it btw,

just thought I'd share this picture with you - isn't she

g o r g e o u s ?!)

 

 next up...(accessorize?) floral accessories-smaller clips than the

badge/hair ties I have now ....cos I clearly don't have enough ahem ahem..

oh well..  :D

 

a range of hand weights -these are from the Davina range at Argos (:

I plan on getting these weights tomorrow

as level two of the 30 shred nearly killed me

this morning when I used water bottles as weights

(I'll explain in another post ;)

daily smile: making a wishlist makes you

look forward to the lovely jovely things you

plan on buying! hip hip hoorayyyy!

Gone Fishing

Fishtail Plait!

LOVE IT!

Have you always wanted to know how to do one of 

these? I did for A  G  E  S and then the lovely 

FoxyLocksExtensions

on youtube taught me how in her video

(I tie a side pony tail and then plait to 

make it a little easier for myself :)

This is a gorgeous hairstyle for second day hair..

be warned! it does take some time..especially

for long hair! But even if it gets messy

throughout the day, it still looks chic!

Braid and plaits of all sorts have been seen on the

runways recently, and it is wearable, so..

*double yay*

now that is one perfect fishtail braid! ^

I think I prefer them messy though!

or tied with a cute or rough ribbon ^

liking the laid back, messy look for sure

or you could just go mental with it! haha!

There are lots and lots of how to vids on

this but I found this one of the most

easy-to-follow..I actually found it because

Anna Saccone (TheStyleDiet on youtube) tweeted

about the vid!-and yes, I am a little yt obsessed!

If any of you try it out..let me know

how it goes!
