Week Six #fmsphotoaday


Week Six of Fat Mum Slim's photo a day challenge complete.  I am so excited to do a FULL year of the #fmsphotoaday challenge.  Here is a little description of my piccies for this week.

Monday 2nd - Mail
Got the "you have a parcel" slip in our tiny postbox which meant my books had arrived from Mum.  Yes we send each other books in the post to read, kind of like a postman pat library.  I was excited as i was finally going to read James Bowen's "A streetcat named Bob".  The amazing true story of how James survived being on the streets of London after he met a ginger cat who he named Bob.  To give you an idea of how good the books are, I have read both already as of yesterday (8th Feb).  Easy reading and you will just love Bob.  

Tuesday 3rd - Water
It was raining today but decided to use my photo archives to put up a water picture that made me smile and feel warmer.  The water picture for this prompt was taken in Thailand on our Honeymoon in May 2014.  We had jumped aboard the Josephine for a gorgeous day out visiting the islands around Koh Samui. Clear blue water, gorgeous day with my husband.

Wednesday 4th - Reward
Coffee after a crazy couple days was just the reward I needed. Trying a new coffee shop I was worried I wouldn't get a good cup of cha, but I was wrong!! Delicious strong latte delivered the punch I needed to get through the rest of the hump day Wednesday. Long live the coffee bean!

 Thursday 5th - Something Blue
I always like unusual wooden objects, quite obsessed with wooden artifacts and anything wood related.... so when I read this prompt I knew I had to use the blue wooden crates picture I took at Sculptures by The Sea. Love the contrast of the blue.

 Friday 6th - Makes Me Smile
Today was a rough day. Probably the roughest day in my life to date. But I am so glad I have my two babies with me who make me smile on a daily basis. They are both so cute and cuddly and I love them with all my heart.  

 Saturday 7th - Stripes
I seem to have many skirts and dresses with stripes so today's prompt was an easy one. Stripey dress from St Frock! Gorgeous comfortable and colourful dress to make me smile.  Love stripes.

 Sunday 8th - In My Bag
After stalking her clothes on Facebook and hearing rave reviews I finally purchased some Erin Louise goodies! The items came in a little mesh bag with a big love heart on it. Definitely a great In My bag prompt. Beats the boring items in my big handbag that needs cleaning out.

Who is Dons Health, Fitness & Wellbeing?

Image
Another year older,  I realise I have come so far with my health, fitness and wellbeing beliefs. I am like a sponge, I love learning new things, reading articles and keeping my Facebook and Instagram published is something I am passionate about, doesn't matter how many people read it, I am drawn to writing posts and publishing. I was driven to start my FB and Insta pages,  to spread the healthy message out there instead of the unhealthy diet & exercise messages that you see on social media, I am passionate about the body and the mind being healthy.  Check me out   Facebook  and  Instagram . Even though I am not a trainer anymore - I still have so many training routines in my head, not to mention choreography to dance classes I have done (albeit badly)! The not giving a shit what people think is the main thing I would say to everyone - be you, be loud, be proud, dance like people ARE watching if that is your thing, never apologize for being you.  My purpose is to be a voice - to

All about breathing in, out and letting go.

  Had the most enjoyable yoga class today at Hard Candy... I try and get to Deb's class every Wednesday lunchtime because it really makes me appreciate life, and forget the shit that we hold onto and how unimportant it really all is in the big scheme of things.    An hour of stretches, breathing in a room heated to 37 degrees makes me let go of unnecessary worry and also stretches out and strengthens my tall body.   It is truly a perfect way for me to get fitter and also look after my mental state, because sometimes we can get so caught up in life, that we forget to just let go.  We hold on to far too much energy that can make us feel heavy, flat and we need to let that shit go, the conversation you had three days ago with a friend, let it go, the guy who cut you off in traffic this morning, let it go.   Life is too short to worry about crap... we need to get out of our own mind and experience other thoughts and experience instead of playing the same record in our mind

Just Start Today

  Just Start today. There is never a perfect time to start towards your goals and changing your habits.  Just Start today, here. It can take up to 21 days to change a habit, there is your first milestone to reach, let’s focus on that, just doing something different/new/changing for 21 days. How hard can that be? Time to get out of that Lockdown or winter funk - you are important, you matter and your mental and physical health is important for you and your family/friends.   So, where to start I hear you ask, choose only 1-3 goals at a time, and choose goals with a measurable timeframe - i.e. reduce screen time before bed, increase mindfulness to 15mins a day, try yoga once a week, do a walk with friends every Sunday, eat less processed foods daily, keep a gratitude journal, go for that check up before end of October etc -  start with the following 5 action steps before you just start:     1 - Awareness - Change starts with awareness - you know you need to make a change, this i
