Over the last few weeks I’ve been trying to keep a miniature diary where each night before I go to sleep I write a sentence or two in a notebook about something good I’ve achieved that day.
As a result I’ve decided to do a weekly post called ‘My Best Things This Week’ where I’ll do a round up of the best moments from the last seven days.
Here are my best things from this week!
1. On Saturday I met up with a mate I’ve not seen in ages. We went for a wander round Sale Water Park with her Yorkshire terrier in tow and scoffed ice cream.
2. I’ve decided to get back into Slimming World. I first joined in October and lost a stone and a half fairly quickly but then Christmas came around and I began to take it less seriously. Since then I’ve thankfully not really gained any weight, but I’ve still be paying a fiver each week to get weighed! Not very thrifty of me at all if I’m not making an effort to eat healthily and be active. I’ve written a post about how I lost a stone in two months without getting hungry. Could be worth a look if you’re looking to lose weight but hate diets like I do!! 🙂
3. This week I went for my first run in absolutely ages. Found myself feeling really tired so quickly but I’m proud of myself for at least getting out there and giving it a go. I’m excited to see how I improve over the next few weeks.
4. Jake and I have started to look at holidays! We’ve booked some time off work in June, but we’re yet to decide where to go. I’m at a point now where I just want to get it booked so that it feels more real. It also might help motivate me to eat healthy and exercise more so that I can fit in some of my old summer clothes. I’ve got some really pretty dresses that I’d love to wear but I haven’t been able to fit into them for a long time.
5. After last week’s craziness, Jake bought me this gorgeous bag from Accessorize as a well done present for passing an exam and getting myself in the papers.
6. eBay is going well! I sold four items out of nine in the first week, and two items out of four in the second week. Now that I’m into week three I’ve decided to list some more expensive items such as this Ralph Lauren shirt that my brother has barely worn. It’s just a shame that since I’m new, eBay has imposed a limit on my account where I can only sell ten items per month. My house is filled with unwanted clothes we’re keen to get rid of.
