Look ahead...

Hardest thing to do is to believe in yourself... but even saying it out loud (even when you don't believe it!) can help! Trying to stay positive is so hard and trying to stay motivated all the time is even harder when all you want to do is crawl back into bed and forget about the world until next spring... But if we don't take the time now to try and feel happy by the time spring comes around we'll feel even worse... 

This week, look ahead... sit down and plan some meals, if you struggle with that, then just plan your breakfasts, get them all set and have everything you need for them in the house... every single choice is ours and every good choice counts x

Ok I know it's still miserable out there but I'm already dreaming of this years summer! And do we all remember Slush Puppies?!?! Yeah we do! ahhh good times! It took me months to get my paws on my fav ice pops with the rush and this year these are the ones to keep your peepers out for! Suitable for veggies, vegans & coeliacs you'll spot these in Tesco, if they're not there, harass the manager until they get them in... I had to do that with the watermelon ones last year (he runs when he sees me coming now but I think he's just flirting with me! LOL ) ... Then, just whack 'em in the freezer for a couple of hours, give em a good squeeze and you're all set to go! If you buy all the sour cherry ones before me I will hunt you down!
