Eating Well, Toning up ...New Year, New You

Here are some cool things I discovered:

It has a 4 week eating plan, which seems doable. It gives you lots of choices for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner, including snacks.

And it also has an exercise plan with 3 circuits. It includes pictures, and instructions.

 I am thinking of trying it, at least the exercise part, I am really bad at keeping up with a meal plan. I wish I could, but it never works out.

If you try it, let me know how it goes.

My party

So I had my party last night (I posted the menu for it a couple days ago) and it went really well.
For a Wednesday night party, it was quite the party. There was some beer pong, drinking Jenga....loads of food, I cooked and my friends brought things in. Lots of drinks....my friend let me borrow his speakers so we had some music playing...

Overall I was quite happy, and I had a lot of fun.

Afterwards, I was really tired because I pulled an all-nighter doing a Regression stats assignment, so I didn't eat properly or sleep in the last 36hours, ....it was brutal I will admit.

So after the party, I went to lie down (with the intention of getting up in 5 minutes to brush my teeth and wash my face and change into my pjs), and I passed out in my clothes, with my make-up and everything. I haven't done this in so long...I wasn't even drunk (lol).
I woke up around 7:30 because my phone was jabbing me in the ribs, lovely.
I was soo soo tired, and I slept pretty well so today I am up and active.

My Used it Up list

So starting last year, I started making a use it up list for a couple reasons:

• I wanted to track my progress (lol) of how much am I using my things up
• I wanted to make sure I am using things and not rebuying 5 of the same things without using them up first
• I wanted to make goals to use more things
• ...and that's about it unless I am forgetting thing

So here is my January use it up list
It have everything from Make-up, bath and body, tarts, hair, skin care, samples, etc.

1. Philosophy flirty girl shower gel sample
2. LUSH Hippy chick
3. LUSH star melt
4. Everyday minerals rice finishing powder
5. Fusion beauty prime results – brightening primer sample
6. NARS sheer glow foundation in Fiji sample
7. Smashbox High Definition Healthy FX foundation sample
8. unknown foundation sample
9. Dr. Brant pore no more sample
10. LUSH cinders bath bomb
11. Aubrey’s candles and crafts tart in apple cinnamon
12. Aubrey’s candles and crafts tart in biscotti
13. Garnier conditioner for normal hair
14. Nivea lotion 200ml

Most are full size, unless I say sample.
I woul this was a great month, usually I use up between 15-20 things (around half of that is samples)...my goal was 25, and I definetly surpassed my goal.

I really like doing this, it helps me realize what I have in my stash and also makes me keep it organized so I can keep track of what I am using.
Plus it feels soo great when you finish things, it feels like you accomplished a task.

Let me know if you do this also,

xoxo,
