Slip Into Summer

ByLisa Jayne 



The days are starting to get brighter and warmer, and it’s starting to feel that summer is right round the corner. I’m looking forward to not having to wear a billion layers, and packing away my big winter jumpers for a few more months, and being able to wear pretty summer dresses in their places. With summer coming up I’d really like to lose a little more weight, and if I could drop a dress size or two that would be great! 




For years I’ve been trying out every diet under the sun to try and shift some weight. You name it, I’ve probably tried it. Sometimes I manage to lose a few pounds, maybe even a stone, but I always seem to lose my motivation and give up. That’s the problem with many fad diets, sometimes you can lose a lot of weight, but the minute you stop the diet the weight just creeps back on. 




When it comes to losing weight it’s recommended that you set yourself a goal, or something to aim for, then you feel a great sense of achievement when you get to it. It got me thinking about what I should aim for with my own weightloss. This summer my partners sister is getting married, and it would be great to have dropped a dress size and have a pretty new dress to wear for the occasion. Just in time for summer DW Fitness have challenged me with their help and added encouragement from Weird Fish to drop a dress size in 12 weeks. No fad diets, just healthy exercise and eating! 




DW Fitness have offered me access to their gym, a fitness plan and a meal tool which is keeping me on the right track. The first thing I’ve noticed from following the plan is that I’m not as hungry as I thought I would be. By eating the right food I’m feeling fuller than I used to scoffing on crisps and biscuits. I’m still going to allow myself the odd treat now and then, but I’m going to ensure that it’s now and then! I’m also looking forward to sticking to trying out the fitness plan, as I’ve never really known much about fitness and it’ll do me good to have a plan to stick to. 




I keep thinking about how great it will feel to wear my new smaller dress, especially after all my hardwork and eating well. So with just 12 weeks to go I better make sure I stick to my plan! Wish me luck.

    I’ve always loved quirky looking jewelry, something that looks a bit different. I’ve never been a traditional jewelry type girl, I’ve always loved huge necklaces and crazy rings. So when I was sent this unusual looking bracelet from Ilcentimetro I was excited to wear it. Ilcentimetro do their bracelets in a range of colours, and I received the ‘Arctic White’ shade, and already…

    Last weekend on the 20th May I had my university’s summer ball! It was bit of an excuse to get all dressed up, and have bit of a fancy night out. We went to a local venue in Leicester, called Athena, and had drinks and entertainment, including a band, and circus acts. Here’s some pictures…

    I’ve never really been one to post outfits of the day type of posts for a few reasons. One, because I’m not really into fashion at all. I’m hopeless at it and I’ve never really been into it like I have with beauty. Two, I have no idea how some fashion bloggers take such amazing…

    With Halloween just around the corner I thought it was time to think what I was planning to do this year. I’ve never really made a big deal out of Halloween, although when I was at university we would make a big deal of it all and dress up, decorate the house and everything. Now I’m back…

    My First Shopping Haul :)

    So recently my mum’s felt sorry for me and my poor student budget not being able to afford new clothes and walking around in old falling apart stuff, so she took me shopping! (nothing like abusing the parents credit card!) I managed to get myself 8 new items! This is what I got: 1. Stripy…

    Here’s How I Make Getting Ready For Special Occasions Easier*

    For me, one of the best things about the summer is all the events and special occasions that take place. From weddings and summer balls to christenings and parties, there are just so many things to attend during the summer. However, while I love attending summer events, I always used to struggle when it came…
