Let's Catch Up

OKAY! Yes I am so aware that it has been months since I last did a blog post. I just wasn't feeling inspired and I never blog unless it's natural. So here we are, two months later and I am writing to you "au naturale".

London

Oh yeah! I went to London. My whole family live over there and I haven't been in years so when my boyfriend left for America back in January, I took it as an opportunity to go on a few adventures. I got to visit my cousins, see a close friend of mine and see my Godparents. There were countless days of shopping and meals out. And the friends that I was staying with even got me a goodbye gift. I was totally and utterly spoiled and I had an absolutely amazing time. When I graduate, I'll be doing a bee line over there! To see more pictures of my trip, head over to my Instagram account! 

Lifestyle Change

If you've been following my social media and this site, then you'll know that I joined Weight Watchers back in September. I managed to lose a stone a two pounds by the time November came along, which I am still so thrilled about. But as the Christmas season crept up upon us all, I started working more, going out more and having less time to focus on the bigger picture. Then after Christmas, I went on two holidays. So my new lifestyle took a step back and of course, I put on a few pounds. But I think it was what I needed. It made me realise that I do not want to go back to how I was. I enjoyed Zumba, walks on the prom and achieving something at my weigh in every week. I liked weight watchers, but there were'nt a lot of people my own age there and they all seemed to be mothers. So the majority of the group chat was about cooking for the rest of the family which was something I found hard to relate to, as I am only 20 and childless. I looked into other groups and heard about Slimming World. I went to my first class last week and loved it. The youngest person there is 13 and the oldest is 63. There were loads of people my own age there and it was so up beat and positive. Thinking about the future made me excited and I was extremely motivated. Once I'm a couple of weeks into it, I'll do a more in depth post about my journey so far.

Much Love,

Shannon.
