Big things are coming!!

I'm a bit excited. Recently a friend suggested I sell the things I make as a small hobby business and I have decided to do just that! I plan this week to start making items for my new handmade business venture and start selling homage housewares! My first project will be placemats and microwave bowl covers as well as some table wreaths that will match the placemats. You can keep up to date on what I have in stock on my Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/Kates-Homemade-Housewares-679556078813679/

I plan to start putting items up as of this Friday and will have a grand opening next Monday where there will be special offers and discounts. I'll keep you all updated with photos of the items I have made and plan to make :) 

I'm off to the gym now, so until next time

Take care

First day at the gym!

Wow! I'm feeling pumped! Just finished my first gym session and can't wait to go back tomorrow! Here is the pre gym photo as promise! Not the best I know but it's a start!

I get my program tomorrow but here's what I did today:

15 minutes on the stationary bike, this equaled 5.26km and a burn of 90 calories. My heart rate got up to 130z

10 minutes on the cross trainer which equaled 1.5km and my heart rate got to to 151.

20 reps on the overhead press at 23kg

15 reps on the chest press at 25kg

40 sit-ups

10 squats

30 min in the sauna (didn't realise I had to turn it on so 15 min of that was just sitting in there without it turned on lol

Sauna selfie lol

Overall I had a great workout and can't wait until tomorrow to have another one! 

Until next time!

New year, new me

Hey all. I know the new year, new me deal is like over a month late but better late then never hey? Today I made a major decision in how I was going to change myself this year for the better. Those who know me, know that I have struggled with my weight for close to 4 years now, having gone from a size 18 to a size 24-26 in a matter of months due to  the medication I am on. I have had enough of this, as trying to find clothing that I like is hard and make my love of op shopping harder cause all the nice clothes are for size 18 and lower. It has also created health problems for me, as I suffer from back problems due to the excess weight, and basically I just want to get myself to a healthy and manageable weight.

I've tried many things- smoothies for breakfast and lunch, yoghurt for breakfast and salad for lunch and dinner, walking (I walk every day, one of the perks of not having a license) and protein shakes. But I want to take it up a notch, so today I joined a gym. I start my program on Monday and plan to go Monday-Friday, depending on work hours so that I can start working towards my goal weight of a healthy 85kg. My first goal though is to lose 20kg by the 31sr of May, my 33rd birthday. 

I will be going back on the Rapid Loss, working to tone my body and lose weight, start eating healthier and cut out soft drinks to begin with (this will be a hard one as I practically live on soft drink but I know I can do it!) and start looking after myself.

And I want you all to join me! I will keep you updated, starting with the lovely before photo on Monday, and then go from there.

Anyways it's time for me to get my beauty sleep so until next time,

Peace out ✌🏻
