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.

    [et_pb_section bb_built=”1″][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text] Over the last couple of months there’s been some great freebies attached to my favourite magazines. And again this month isn’t any different! As I was in the shop to buy my monthly magazines last week, I saw that two of my favourites had some brilliant freebies yet again!    Here’s what…

    [et_pb_section bb_built=”1″][et_pb_row][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.0.66″] Bonmarche is a brand that I always thought stocked ‘old lady’ type clothes, and never really appealed to me. I’d often see them on the high street and wouldn’t give them two glances. Recently I was contacted by Bonmarche to take a look at their new range, and I was actually pleasantly surprised at…

    For pretty much most of my life I’ve been a bag lady. I currently have about 6 handbags that I use on a fairly common basis, as well as 10 evening bags, and another 5 smaller handbags in case I don’t want to carry a large one around all day… Yupp I have an addiction….

    I have never been into sports, even as a child I used to try and find every excuse possible to get out of my PE lessons. It just has no interest to me at all. Why would I want to go outside, get all sweaty and make myself tired? No thanks. Even as an adult…

    This year for New Years Eve I didn’t have any massive plans, but opted for a night in with a couple of close friends and my boyfriend for a few drinks and a couple of games of monopoly. Despite not having a huge night out planned I decided that my nails of course needed a…

    I’ve seen this floating around on a couple of blogs today and thought I’d give it a wurl too 🙂   Would you rather lose all of your mascaras, eye liners, lipsticks and lip glosses or lose all your palettes and eye shadows? Lose all my palettes and eye shadows. I couldn’t live without mascara…
