I saw a post on
instagram, which made me think that I had to write a blog post about this.
“People are so
worried about what they eat between Christmas and New Year, but really they
should be worried about what they eat between New Year and Christmas”
This is so so true!
It doesn’t matter
what you eat these few days between Christmas and New Year, if you know exactly what you are
eating between New Year and Christmas.
Don’t give yourself a hard time for over
indulging for these last few days of the year.
ENJOY IT!
And then you will be
able to get right back at it in 2016!
So on that note - go
enjoy some chocolate & relax with your family and friends, and don’t worry!
Check out some festive fun I had with my brother in this weeks youtube video:
Half of my last year
of my undergraduate degree is already over!! WHAT?
I can’t believe
Christmas & 2016 is right around the corner.
HOWEVER,
I don’t know about
you, but for me a routine is so important to help me stay on track. And let’s
be honest, this time of year the routine has been thrown out of the window
weeks ago.
A lot of us are going
back home for the holidays, or going on holiday somewhere, which means we don’t
have our normal healthy lifestyle routines heck; we might not even have access
to a gym.
For me I’m heading to
London over Christmas (no gym membership for me) and then to CUBAAAA over new
years (probably small hotel gym). So I know I won’t be able to stick to my
normal gym routine. Which is why I wanted to concentrate on home workouts /
outdoor workouts this week.
Because it can be so
so easy!
I filmed a small
outdoor workout Youtube video this week that I think anyone can do.
Sometimes we just
need to remember to use what we have available around us.
Like a chair, park
bench, water bottle or even just the floor!
This blog post and
video isn’t just for you guys, I see it as a reminder to myself too. YOU DON’T
NEED A GYM TO STAY FIT!
No gym, no problem!
Stay happy &
healthy lovelies
And tell me all about
your holiday plans below! Where are you spending Christmas & new years?
It’s time for another
London food adventures blog post.
After loads of
university deadlines and some family matters it’s needless to say the last few
weeks have been stressful, which is why I’ve escaped into London for a mini
break just before my autumn term of university comes to an end.
And what better way
to start my London mini break than with a late night sushi & cocktails
session at the amazing Sushisamba restaurant.
Sushisama is located
on the 38th floor in heron tower, which obviously means there is a
spectacular view of London to enjoy alongside your food fest. I made the
reservations more than a week ago but we could still only get a table for
9.45pm so tip number 1: book a FEW weeks in advance if you want to choose at
what time to have dinner.
After having had a
snack at 5pm to make sure we we’re starving by 10pm we made our way to
Liverpool street and straight into the lift & up to the 38th
floor. The lift itself already has an amazing view to offer as you rise above
all the building around you until London looks more like a picture than the
city you were standing amongst a few second ago.
Once we got up to the
restaurant the atmosphere was buzzing. Cute lights were hanging from the
ceiling and people were chatting away while the view of London lingered around
them. We were lucky to get a table nearly one of the windows so we can first row
seats to the outstanding view.
The menu at
Sushisamba is a fusion menu between Japanese, Brazilian & Peruvian cuisine.
The waiters and waitresses were all really attentive and helpful and explained
to us that the concept at Sushisamba is a bit like Spanish tapas – all the orders
will come at the same time and will be shared.
The menu had loads to
offer from sushi to Japanese and Peruvian grill. But we were really craving
sushi so we just went for 4 sushi dish, the Samba London, Tiger Maki and the
tuna & salmon nigiri. All of which was delicious but I think our favourite
were the Tiger Maki rolls.
They also had loads
of creative cocktails that all sounded fantastic. For our first round we tried
the Nashi Martini and the Nina Fresa – both of which were so so good! For my
second cocktail I had the Lychee cooler, which was not such a winner.
After two hours of
sushi and cocktails we took the lift back down to reality.
Amazing view,
delicious food & good cocktails – but high prices.

Even though I don’t
have a new Youtube video for you this week
(Just check out my
older ones!!)
here is this weeks
blog post!
On Tuesday I was
kindly invited by the 1mpact Club to the 1Rebel gym in London for a kick ass
workout, literally! A lower body reshape class in celebration of the #RebelChristmAss
campaign.
The event was sponsored
by yogangster so we all got bright orange tiny winy booty holders and super
cute white crop tops.
We all got changed
and then got down to business – 45 minutes of sprints, squats & sweat.
This was my second
reshape class and honestly its killer but in the best of ways.
After our sweat party
we all enjoyed delicious food and some cheeky healthy booty cake.
All round a fantastic
event, I mean everyone loves butts, right?!
1Rebel is offering
BootyBuilding sweat parties all throughout December so if you’re up for a
challenge go give it a try!
