Hello everyone! Hope you are well and happy that the weekend is here! I’ve had a packed day and therefore have a packed post!
I had a bit of a bad time last night. After I’d posted and thought my snackiness was over I had a total binge fest. I ate Dark Chocolate Dreams straight from the jar, three small bowls of muesli, a frozen chocolate avocado cup, nakd raisins, I just couldn’t stop! I felt so guilty. Then to make matters worse I had my weigh in and unsurprisingly I haven’t lost a single pound of the 5 lbs I gained on my holiday (I’m now 10st 1 / 141lbs). To say I was in a bad mood this morning was an understatement!
I went to the gym and did 30 minutes of intervals followed by abs and upper body weights. While I was at the gym I gained a bit of perspective and started to feel a bit better, I’ve said that 10st is my ‘happy’ weight and I’m only 1 lb over that so it isn’t too bad really.
Breakfast was a bowl of berries and chopped apple with some We Are Bear Coca Cherry Pie Granola and fromage frais mixed with a scoop of Nutty Berry Spiru-tein.
This combo worked really well together, and I love the pink fromage frais!
Before we left for the wedding I had a snack of a chopped nectarine and clemintine with a few seeds on top.
I’ve just came home from the wedding (I’ll cover my eats further on in the post) and made myself this gorgeous green monster with loads of spinach, 1 frozen banana, soy milk, maca powder and cinnamon.
Just what I needed!
Outfit of the Day
This is my outfit for the wedding – Dress: Topshop, Black Peep Toe Shoes: Office, Black Satin Bag: Accessorize, Head Band: home made. I also wore a little black blazer.
I went for vintage style make up with black flicked eye liner and neutral eye shadow and my new MAC Russian Red lipstick. I went for a pearl white nail varnish rather than a dark or brighter colour on my nails as I though that might be too much with the red lips. I pined my hair back in a simple bun.
Eddie and Becca’s Wedding
I love weddings and this was a really lovely day. I actually welled up when she walked down the aisle and you could see Eddies face, they were so clearly in love with each other! Here’s a few snap shots from the day:
I decided to have some fun with the snap shots, I quite like the vintage / retro style of these pics!
Do you like weddings? Eddie and Becca make such a lovely couple, and the day was really good fun.
What do you have planned for the weekend? I have quite a busy one! I’m swapping my usual Saturday run to Sunday when I’m going to try and run from my house to my Parents (around 9 – 10 miles). Tomorrow I’ll be cleaning and tidying the flat, doing some cooking and baking and having a trip into town to get some groceries from the market. I can’t wait, I love my grocery shopping! Hope you have all had a great week x

Hello! I actually thought you were going away for the wknd. You look gorgeous in your dress. I like vintage pictures. Boyfriend’s got loads of different cameras. Amongs them, a Polaroid one. Seems like we have pictures of us from the 80′s haha.
This wknd, im going shopping (clothes and a new computer for me…yay). Im also gonna work on improving my breakfast for the week! And Boyfriend suggested that we go to a “pick your own” farm…cool ;)
Don’t beat yourself up hun, you didn’t exactly binge on fish and chips or ice cream! It was all natural stuff just too much of it, well maybe your body needed it :P
I love love love the dress you wore! You look so classic!
Well, you may not be happy with the numbers, but you look terrific! Great outfit.
Love your wedding outfit. Don’t feel bad about the food, like Sarah said maybe your body needed it. With the exercise your doing now maybe you need a bit more food during the day or maybe yesterday you didn’t quite get enough calories so your body rebelled a bit. Don’t feel bad though *hugs*
Rocking that shift dress there babe! I looove the look :o)
1lb over your happy weight is totally fine, you know it’s about being within a range and sometimes you’ll be on the heavier side and sometimes on the lighter side. In the grand scheme of things, I wouldn’t worry too much about 1lb. And as Sarah said, it was “good” food you had a bit of a splurge with, so really no harm done.
Thanks for the comments everyone, glad you liked the dress! I’m feeling much better about the binge / weigh thing today, thanks for your kind comments they’ve really made me feel better about it x
You look great in your outfit! Loving the vintage style photos as well.
Don’t beat yourself up about the binge – at least you go for good food, not KFC like me!!

Gorgeous!
