ITS ALL ABOUT THAT MOTIVATION

 

Well I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas and New Year, When it is New Year I always use it as an excuse to reflect on the previous year/years. Today I saw a picture of me from about 1 1/2 years and I couldn't believe my eyes! I was astounded at the size I looked and how I could let myself personally get like that.

 

 I would love to have an excuse or a reason or even someone else to blame for my weight gain but it all truthfully boils down to me being lazy and over eating.

 

The photo that is displayed below is to show you what determination and a bit or willingness can do. The photo on the right clearly displays that I wasn't willing to do anything, I would rather of sat in my bed and ate all year round, until I had a reality check when I originally saw this picture.

 

The photo on the left was take 1 month ago, putting these pictures together side by side really motivates me and gets me in the mood to get back on track after the festive indulgent season. The difference between the photos in weight is 3 1/2 stone which might not be much to some people but it is a massive milestone for me. I cant wait to get back to the gym and working out again because I've forgotten what it feels like to feel the burn of progress!

 

 

I will be blogging my progress through out the year, how I work out and what I eat.

 

Thank you so much for reading!

Real Techniques Bold Metal Collection | LucyLouiseLeadbetter

Real Techniques Bold Metals Collection

 

Recently the Real Techniques sisters Nic and Sam have been talking about a very exciting new project they are bringing out, as soon as I saw the tweets I was very much into the process of finding out what. The 2 sisters are very good at keeping their projects a secret and not letting anything slip so as you can imagine, I found nothing.

 

When they announced the product was going to be brushes I honestly didn't now what to think, I didn't really hang on to the fact that they were still bringing a new brush out as I thought they were just going to be the same stems, stands and neck as the others. How wrong I was with that assumption, definitely way off the mark with that one.

 

Every time I look at the brushes I get very excited and it instantly put me in the mood for makeup, and that takes an awful lot if I'm not at work. The cleanness and the cut of the brush in my opinion is perfect, The only brushes I will use for makeup is Real Techniques and for them to make a collection of brushes like this, personally I think they have excelled themselves. I am very proud to use and purchase their products.

 

Here are the masterpieces.

2014 Rewind | LucyLouiseLeadbetter

2014 Rewind

 

For todays post I thought I would do what every blogger in the world is probably doing !!. I feel like its a great time to reflect on the year, what I've gained and what I've lost and learned.

 

Here is a picture to show you briefly what happened in my 2014.

 

Il go through the picture from left to right.

 

I started Younique | I got my confidence back with photography | I went blonde

I found my love for beauty again | one of my god children turned 1 | I started riding horses

I got a dog called Abel | I got a tone of amazing baking stuff for Christmas | I lost 3 stone!

 

 

2014 Has a few very low points for me, I was in a very dark place at the beginning of summer. When autumn came things started looking up, I started my therapy, started a new job and life was looking good! The job I had at that point I didn't really like so I'm glad that I left, I am much happier not working for that company. The day I left that company I started the job I have now the next day, I can honestly say I am so happy now!

 

All I can hope is that 2015 is more good than bad and that goes for you too !!

 

Thank you so much for reading !
