October Goals

ByLisa Jayne

I love October, I think it’s one of my favourite months. It’s where everything starts feeling like autumn, and things start to get colder. Now that I have my own flat I can’t wait to start buying cosy blankets, and dare I say it, getting ready for Christmas! 



Similar to last month I’ve set myself a few little goals. Here’s what I want to achieve in October:




Lose half a stone
I briefly mentioned in my September goals revisited post that I’ve joined Slimming World. I started off really well, but I’ve had a few slip ups as well. I don’t have many big plans for the rest of October so I’m hoping to be able to stick to the plan 100% and hopefully achieve my half a stone award. 


 


Read two books 
I set myself this goal last month, but only managed to read one book. This month I want to actually achieve this!


 


Get into a regular gym routine
Since my mud run I’ve had bit of a rest as it was quite a physical challenge on myself, which means I’ve got out of the habit from my usual gym routine. I want to get back into visiting the gym regularly, and hopefully build up my strength. 


 


Finish my current knitting project
At the moment I’m working on a big knitting project, and I’m quite slow at finishing my crafty projects. This month I want to be able to finish what I’m currently working on, mostly so I can start on my Christmas crafts!


 


Try some new recipes
Last month I got to grips with cooking regularly, but my skills are rather basic. I want to try a few new recipes and hopefully improve my cooking skills! 




That’s what I want to achieve this month, is there anything you want to achieve in October?

My detox programme ended on the 2nd March so I thought it was time to update on how I got on. I mentioned in my first post that I’m a complete and utter sugar addict….

St Patrick’s Day Gifts

Happy St Patrick’s day! The one day a year it’s perfectly acceptable to wear green and drink Irish beer all day. Of course no celebration is complete without some themed gifts to get you through the day. And in true St Paddy’s day style, they’re all green and alcohol related ;). Green Twist Glass Beverage…

It’s no secret that Italy is known for its food. From pizza, to pasta, to wine, and ice cream, no one does it quite right like Italy. I’ve been fortunate to travel to Italy a few times in the past, and I’ve experienced some great food on my way. Each region of Italy has it’s…
