New Year Resolutions 2016

Happy New Year everybody! I hope you all have a lovely New Year’s Eve and have a great day today. My mum is cooking a dinner today for the family to get together and celebrate the start of 2016, which will be the perfect way to shift this hangover! 2015 had some real lows and also some great highs. I always feels like the start of a new year is the perfect excuse to forget about the lows, brush them off and move onwards, however I do always think it is a good time to reflect on all the good times and be thankful for what we have!

New Year Resolution

Happy New Year guys! Hope you all aren't too hungover from last night and are all having a lovely day seeing in the new year with your friends and family. 

With it being the first day of 2015 I thought it would be appropriate to finally put my resolutions and plans down in writing. I've never really been one for making resolutions, I never really saw the point in picking one day in the year to make loads of changes to myself, and then I hit 2013. 2013 was by far the worst year of my life. The life plan that I had and that I had been working towards for my whole life wasn't the life plan that the universe had for me. I spent the last few months of 2013 being miserable and wallowing, so I decided that I would start 2014 by trying to change my outlook on life and by making my first ever New Years Resolution. So at the start of 2014 I decided to have just one resolution, this was to lose weight. I started 2014 (after comfort eating my way through 2013) at the heaviest I have ever been in my life. I was a size 16 and was totally miserable. I allowed myself to have January 1st in order to enjoy our New Years family meal and I started on the 2nd. I started slimming world and then by April I started seeing a personal trainer once a week and going to the gym. By my summer holiday in August I was a comfortable size 12 and had lost 2 stone and 4 pounds. After August I put on a couple of pound but maintained a total loss of 2 stone. However during December I have allowed myself to have a month long blow out eating every fatty food that I can get my hands on.
