This week I thought I'd stick with a more personal post rather than a fashion related one. I've really been feeling these lately! They just seem to be coming more naturally in terms of writing fluidity.
So to begin. Last week I went to my boyfriends sisters confirmation and had a lovely time. I can honestly spend hours with the girls, especially now that they're getting older. We have Kacey (12) who's confirmation it was and she is just the most fun loving and smiley child you will ever meet. And mature beyond her years. Like you should hear the stuff she comes out with, it's amazing. And then there's Melissa (15) who is so incredibly genuine and kind. She always thinks of others before herself and loves everyone so hard. I grew up with one brother so having these two in my life is a luxury and blessing that I will never take for granted. They are just two incredible girls that I love so much. If you read my last post, you would have seen that I joined Slimming World. Well on this day, that took a complete step back as we went to Scotty's Steakhouse for dinner. It's an American style restaurant with killer meals. The Ice Cream pictured below, yes I ate all of it. I REGRET NOTHING!
I am now three weeks into my membership with Slimming World and I am thrilled to be able to say that I have lost 10 pounds with them so far. The classes are fabulous and cater to all ages. The recipes are flawless and so tasty. I am actually really surprised by how many things I can actually have. And not to mention, my Mum made the decision to do it with me. It's really nice having someone who offers a never ending supply of support and a little bit of innocent competition. She's honestly been my rock through all of this and has already taught me so much about what I can actually achieve. I'm reminded everyday by how incredible she is and how there is nothing like a Mother's unconditional love.
I also bought myself a new pair of snazzy trainers. I had my eye on a new bag but I've been eyeing these babies up for months. So considering that I was starting a healthier chapter of my life, I thought that this particular purchase would be fitting for the occasion. They're called the Nike Air Pegasus Zoom trainers and they retail in Lifestyle Sports for 110 euro. Yes they are on the pricier side of shoes but they are so comfortable and cushioned. I feel like Tigger walking up and down the promenade! And well, they're lilac. SOLD!
Hope that you too have had a lovely week!
Much Love,
Shannon.
