Miss Fit Skinny Tea review

Whatever happened to a normal cup of tea that the Irish are famous for? 

With more and more people wanting to get fit and healthy, teatoxs and detoxs are becoming more and more popular. 

I wouldn't be one for going on a detox or taking shakes or tablets etc because I'd feel like such a cheater because I think there just quick fixes and let's be honest here all you have to do to loose weight is eat less and move more right?! 

Before Christmas I had been hearing a lot about miss fit skinny tea and after doing a bit a research I thought I'd give it ago because I heard so much good things about it. 




It's 100% all natural Ingredients, so it'd just be like drinking a cup of green tea but with a lot more benefits. It doesn't make you loose weight but can contribute if you're already eating healthy and excersizing. It comes with a 14 day meal plan but I stuck to slimming world because I'm so fussy! But the plan is great and gives you lots of different ideas. 

You are suppose to drink 2-3 cups a day so I did and more, it tastes nice a bit hard to drink at the start but then I started to like the taste of it. I lost 6 pounds in my first week (doing SW too) I was chuffed! 

It definitely gets rid of the bloated and sluggish feeling which was a great little boost for me because it was so close to Christmas I was drained and this gave me the little kick I needed. 

The thing I love most about this tea is it stops you from craving something sweet with your tea because this is sweet itself. 

I'll definitely be getting another pack of this, I'd definitely recommend it for anyone who is trying to loose weight it gives you that extra little kick we all need sometimes. 

You can buy Miss Fit Skinny Tea in most chemists (mostly Loylds) and online at missfitskinnytea.ie a 14 day teatox is €24.99 you will need to buy the infuser separate too but Loylds have a deal on at the moment where you can get it free. 

Hope everyone's smashing January.

Slow and steady wins the race

New year, new me. 

My New Years resolution from as far back as I can remember was always to 'get skinny' but I always failed. 'Get skinny' isn't a good goal to have anyway I think everyone should aim to be fit and healthy whilst working towards their ideal body image. 



Even though I'm very proud of what I achieved in 2015, I completed over 5 different gym challenges, done personal training and done the 'Run a muck' challenge. My whole body shape has changed completey since I've joined Dtop Fitness and the way I think has changed too, I actually look forward to going the gym now. Even though over the Christmas I found myself falling back into old habits I still managed to get back on track this week but I found it hard, at the start of the week all I wanted to do was sleep. It's crazy after two weeks of bad eating and not going to the gym how horrible I felt, I constantly felt drained and sluggish. It's true what they say you create your own energy. 

I'm the smallest I've ever been, but I'm still not happy and not at my goal weight, will us girls ever be happy? 

I feel like if I don't do it this year I'm going to be struggling for the rest of my life. Today I start my very first challenge of 2016 and I'm so excited. I'm bridesmaid in August and I refuse to walk up the aisle looking like miss piggy in a puffy dress, not forgetting Ibiza in July the only thing that makes me walk to the gym in this horrific weather so if these aren't good enough motivators I don't know what is. 

I'm back in slimming world and I find it great I set myself a target to loose 3 stone by August and I Defo think its achievable if I put my mind to it, it's all about staying positive and planning and preparation are key. 

Here are my before pictures, I'm a bit on the pudgy side but sure look it was Christmas. 




If you set yourself a goal for 2016 stay postive and motivated. Forget about them 5 tins of roses you ate and them 5 bottles of wine you drank over the Christmas your human you're aloud to enjoy yourself. Look forward and get ready to smash your goals for 2016. Don't compare your journey to anybody else's, you see these crazy pages on Instagram girls loosing 8 and 9 even 10 stone in a year and my god I take my hat off to them but that's their journey and this is ours. Remember slow and steady wins the race.

It's D Day! The first Monday of January and my god I've never been so happier to see a Monday in my life. 

First of all I hope everyone had an amazing Christmas, I hope you ate that box of celebrations without feeling guilty and got so drunk you had to re read my blog on 'The Fear' to reassure yourself. 

I know my blog was very quiet in December, but I was so so busy you's all know retail in December, everytime I went to write a blog I would fall asleep. But not too worry my main goal for 2016 is to put everything into my blog and I honestly can't wait to keep writing more and more and seeing where it takes me. 

On NYE a girl came up to me and said 'you don't know me but I just wanna say I read your blogs and your doing great for yourself I'm delighted for you' wellllll I wanted to cry. I only started my blog in August and the support I get is amazing I'm so grateful. 

I love January, I know a lot of people are feeling meh today, but I love the fact that it's a fresh start. 

I had a amazing year in 2015 I done so many things that I'm proud of I never in a million years thought I'd leave home and I did I went to Moldova for a month and had an amazing time, I thought my very own 4 week make up course and then got a job in one of Ireland's best make up colleges. I'm so excited to see what 2016 has in store for me, my main goal for 2016 is to finally reach my goal weight il be starting my first gym challenge next week so il write a new blog post then, Another goal is to travel again this year and to be a full time teacher, but most of all to be happy. 

I hope everyone kicked started the new year today on a positive note weather it be weight loss, career goals or just something personal. I have a new diary and I'm ready to write down all my goals, I done this last year and it really helps! 

Have a fabulous first month of 2016,
Love
