Unfortunately over the past few months, I've fallen into the habit of eating late, sitting on the couch all evening and snacking on fast food at least 3 times a week! It's eventually taken its toll on my body and all of a sudden my waist has grown by 3 inches! YES 3 inches! I know my frame isn't big but we know what size we feel comfortable at and at the moment my clothes are feeling pretty tight! 

Last February, you might remember that I started a healthy lifestyle and food blog called City girl Slim. The aim of the blog was to document my 'new healthy lifestyle' with recipes, healthy restaurant reviews, exercise, tips etc etc. The blog, along with my motivation just fell flat and it didn't really kick off because my own lifestyle hasn't changed that much; I don't exercise at all or eat any of the right foods. It's such a shame because I had the blog designed by the lovely Kailey at Mermaidens blog. With this in mind along with not fitting in any of my clothes anymore, I've decided to kick start the blog again and embark on a lifestyle change! No bluffs, this times its finally for real! 

Exercise is something that I'm looking forward to getting back into and I've re-joined my local gym and plan to get running with Matt on the weekends. Since I don't own light weight iPod or mp3 player like Matt, when I exercise I have to use my IPhone if want to listen to music. I really do hate exercising without any kind of music or audio book, so when I came across an arm-band iPhone holder I thought it would be a great little edition to my gym bag! The arm band is part of the Adidas x Stella McCartney range, its not only really useful but really stylish and feels really secure on my arm. There's a plastic covering to protect your screen and the IPhone fits in easily and stays put throughout your whole workout! Hopefully it's going to fuel my motivation to get fit and healthy!
