TWO BREAKFAST SMOOTHIE IDEAS

Hello lovelies,
You know those morning when you would rather sleep 15 minutes longer so you run out of time to make breakfast? We've all been there!
What I like to do on those morning is throw together a breakfast smoothie.
It takes very little time to prepare & I feel like I can drink my breakfast faster than I can eat it. Plus if you are really organised you can even take it with you on your commute.
So here are 2 of my favourite breakfast smoothie recipes.

VERY BERRY BOOST
- 1 banana
- 1 cup mixed frozen berries
- Half a cup of oats
- 1 scoop of Mixed Berry Missfits protein
- Almond milk/Water

I love this one! I add in oats & protein so that it is more filling, I mean it's supposed to be breakfast after all.
I use the Missfits protein because it's plantbased (made from peas, not dairy), has extra vitamins & minerals in it (like vitamin B12 & zinc) as well as green tea extract. And because I like it so much of course I'm giving you the hookup. If you want to try Missfits for yourself you can get 20% off by using the code 'debbie20' - you're welcome!

GREEN GOODNESS
- 1 banana
- 1/4 avocado
- 1 pear
- Handful of baby spinach
- 1/2 cup of almond milk
- 1 cup of water
- some honey

This is my ultimate green smoothie. Some people are a little sceptical when it comes to drinking green smoothies, but trust me this one is sweet & creamy. The avocado gives it a creaminess that is delicious & all the fruit means you can't even tasted the spinach a little. Perfect way to eat your greens, drink them!

What are your ultimate breakfast smoothies?
Let me know down below!
Love,

AFFORDABLE ACTIVEWEAR

Hello lovelies,

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

It's that time of year again, where we all want to step up our fitness game, whether you're new to the gym life or just gladly fell off the bandwagon during the holiday season.
To help the motivation along we find ourselves buying new activewear, so I thought I would tell you about some of my favourite affordable activewear finds.

The first one that springs to mind, and the one I tell everyone about if FOREVER 21. They have redesigned their activewear and it all looks gorgeous and it's so cheap. The sports bras range between £5 and £15 pounds, while their leggings cost roughly £16. BARGAIN. And have I mentioned how cute the stuff is? (The sports bra I'm wearing in the cover picture is from them.)


My second fave is H&M. I feel like H&M had a phase were their activewear was nothing special, but they have also brought out some fresh new designs. From sports bras with cute strappy backs to sports luxe looking leggings. Their sports bras cost between £10 and £20 and their leggings cost an average of £20 too.


These are my two go-to when it comes to affordable activewear. Though as it's January, I've seen loads of other high street stores bring out new active wear too. Someone stop me. haha

Where do you like to buy your affordable activewear?

Love,
