I feel like it's about time I did a bit of a life update, because a lot of things have changed over the last 6 months.
So first things first, my health has started to improve massively!
This is because we actually found out what it was that was making me ill... stress.
So the long & short of it is that I have removed some of the really stressful things from my life. I have also started having some CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy).
Another part of my life that has changed is my relationship status. Now if you've been here awhile you'll know that I did have a boyfriend, however that relationship ended back in February.
I since have met someone else.
This someone else is Liam & well we just love each other so much!
We are planning to do some youtube videos together, so sit tight you'll get to meet him properly soon.
Even though we haven't been together that long we already live together, have been on holiday & now have a puppy! What can I say you just know sometimes :)
Above is a photo of us in Rome!
Now onto the gym/ fitness side of things.
I have been religiously going to the gym now since February and it has been great! It is perfect to help me de-stress & focus my thoughts/ feelings. I don't have a strict goal yet, but I think if I do decide to compete in anything it would be powerlifting, heavy weights are fun!
I've seen a lot of physical changes because of my training including weight lose, more muscle definition, more energy & more motivation.
So these blog posts have been strictly blog exclusive, however this post has a video to go along with it.
You can read this & watch the video (which I advise) but it's honestly up to you.
So first of all an update on my Gluten Free diet.
This diet has really changed everything for me. I feel a million times better for cutting out gluten!
When I started the diet I was struggling to fill myself up, however my mind is starting to learn what being full really is (and it's not being bloated).
I also feel like I have so much more energy on this diet.
Which leads me nicely onto my next point..
Getting a bit fitter!
I haven't been exercising too much (slaps wrist), so that is now my main focus.
I already think my immune system is getting stronger due to the diet and I think exercise will just help further.
I have also booked a holiday.. so I want that Ibiza body!
So last week I posted about getting healthy & fit in this post.
A week has gone by now and I wanted to post a little update. I do plan on doing weekly updates, that way I hopefully can keep motivated!
So I have almost fully recovered from my throat infection, which is good.
I have also been to a private hospital about what the hell is going on with me. So I think things are on the up. They've done some tests, I'm now just waiting on results. They have also given me some vitamins & eye drops to take.
I have also been making some dietary changes too, partly due to what the private doctor told me.
I have been eating less sugary foods and more vegetables/ fruit.
I still am not drinking fizzy drinks much, maybe the odd glass of pepsi or something.
With regards to exercise, I didn't do any last week due to the throat infection. However this week I have done some bodyweight toning exercise and a little bit of yoga.
So overall I think I have done pretty well over the last week. Next week I aim to do a bit more exercise and just keep everything up. I have also been advised to take up walking which I plan on starting next week.
