Aaaaaaaand back to blogging!

Hello, and the mother of two is back! 
I have had a little break from blogging as being a mother of twins and moving house and getting married dhas been quite stressful..
But I have missed the whole blogging and enjoyment of it, 

Whats been happening in the last 4 months?
So I think last time I finished off, I was saying how I was back in to college? Well I left in January as there was a late start to my placement and I couldn't of passed due to this issue, but I'm a strong believer of everything happens for a reason.
I got married last month, I will cover a separate post on this as it was one of the best days of my life and I'd like to share my special day with you in detail.
I then started to the gym and exercise classes, which i'm continuing but on pause with it at the moment.

As for the not so troubles? Jayden and Luke.
They are 1 next month. Yes one. How on earth has that happened?!
They both say a few words and are standing up and taking a few steps whilst holding on. They have both done so amazing considering they were a month prem. In a huge way I was glad I finished with college as I get to be with them every day and watch them grow.

I aim to be back blogging quite frequently now, watch this space!!

The reason why I lost 4 1/2 pounds in a week with slimming world

Some of you may or not know that I had changed my lifestyle to a slimming world eating plan. It's been around 2 months now. With a total of 12 lbs lost! I only started group a month ago.
As you should know I have two gorgeous babies who are now 8 months old, so I gained weight in my pregnancy, My goal was already to go back to the weight I was before having them, I have 9lbs left to go!

So anyway, for a few weeks now I have been a bit naughty, ooo slice of pizza, why not.. that wont' matter. So and so said at group they had been naughty and got away with it! But bam, it does all add up! You're happy, you get away with it, lost a 1lb, yipee! 

Then the week later weigh comes on, a gain of a 1lb but how? I was good all week, and then I realized the naughty pizza slices had crept up!

And that is why I had to go home and think about why I'm doing this, why I want to lose weight and are those naughty slices of pizzas really worth it?
Not a chance in hell,

Food diary for the week done, and food shopping for the week done.
I had prepared my meals for the day and was focused. I followed it, I avoided going shopping where I would be tempted. Body magic came along, and was my best friend. Everyone has those down weeks? Well instead of picking up the chocolate bar I would take a walk/run.

I love my group they're all so sweet, and my consultant is so crazy, hysterically beautiful. We are always laughing, but the best thing is that we are all doing it together. Slimming world was the best thing I did for myself, and I shall carry on doing it.

I will get my half a stone award next week in group. I will do some more body magic and I will stay and carry on being determined!

Going back as a student, when you are a mother..


I'm back!! If you have read my previous blog posts, which if you want a good read, I suggest you do ;) Then you can see that I was writing on how I was going back to college for a new career path, I also said I would update you on how it was going, so here I am doing this..

The first day was horrible, I cried so much all the way, they were so excited when I was saying good bye, that it upset me even worse, but as the first term carried on, I started to enjoy it, even though I was missing my gorgeous boys terribly, they were my motivation, to work harder.

I completed and passed all assigned assignments/tests, which is less stress, and I came home to quality time with my beautiful babies. The most positive thing out of it all? They have such a strong bond with their Daddy now as well, as he is with them, when I am in college, Jayden's first word was even ''DADADA'' at 6 months old! Of course, they had a strong bond beyond, but there is just something magical of me seeing them all play together, receiving photos of how much fun they are all having!

I always ramble on about how much I love my family, but it is because I really do! Even though waking up is hard to going to college, I have that motivation to do it for my babies. Every Mother has to go back to work some time, and even though it is hard to say good bye, it's even better when saying Hello again, and they have time to miss me, so when they see me, they are even more excited.

So overall, the first term has been amazing! With a massive load of secret tears (off me), but it's all normal, and better for all of us in the long term..
