KIKO is in town

Hi dolls,

How ya doing???? So sometime ago I went to Westfield Stratford and this small shop full of make-up drew my attention. Very cheap and good quality. So I picked up few items.

The Nail varnishes were £1.50 each and they stay on 4 to five days without top or base coat.

 After 4 days of wearing the nail varnish

The Secret to losing weight...

Hello lovers,

Hope you guys are enjoying the sun and the Olympic Games.

We all want to look like those athletes don’t we? Fit and tone right? Well there is a secret or let say many secrets.

1-      Get your butt off the couch...yeah you heard me. That is the first secret. You will never, ever lose weigh if you are a couch potato. You will only get bigger and fatter. Also walk for short distance. You really don't have to drive everywhere and causing traffic jam and potlution for no good reason.

 2-      Don’t binge eating one day and starve yourself for the next two days...it doesn’t work. In fact don’t starve yourself at all. It will only make you ill. 

3-      Eat healthy food and avoid fast food at all cost. Prepare your food from fresh. Eat a lot of vegetables and fruits. Listen to your body, some food might make you bloated. If there is any, find an alternative. I know that cow milk make me bloated so I drink soya milk, almonds milk or rice milk.

4-      Eat food high in proteins: Fish (my favourite is salmon), lean meat, chicken breast, nuts...etc (use Google to find out more).

5-      Eat often, that’s right, the more you eat the higher your metabolism will increase. The secret here it is in the quantity. Eat small meals every 3 hours.

6-      Avoid eating carbohydrate (Bread etc) after 6pm. I will say to only eat it at breakfast to kick start your day.

7-      Drink plenty of water and other beverage like fruit tea, herbal tea. But avoid fizzy drinks(coca cola and so on)

8-      WORKOUT...and be ACTIVE. If you aim at loosing weigh and being fit and tone, then the proportion should be 70% healthy food and 30% workout.

Hope you enjoy ready...Please comment and subscribed.

Bread obsession

Yes that is right! I’m obsessed with bread. I can’t live a week without eating bread. When growing up back in Yaoundé my mum used bring 6 breads(bagettes) from calafatas.

Those breads were meant for breakfast, but my siblings and I will start eating it during the night. Bread was a most in our household. So today I find it hard to stop eating bread or crackers. You probably wonder why I want to stop eating bread. Well, when I eat bread I eat a lot of it.  Can’t control the quantity that I eat and eating too much bread on a regular basic is not good for you especially if like me you are living a healthy life style. Bread is very high in calories because of the carbs it contains.

So far I have managed to go five days without bread. The most difficult days are week-ends; this is probably because there are my cheat days. I’m sure I will quit bread all together, but it is harder than I thought. During the week I get my carbs from oat meal, potatoes, brown pasta, brown rice and from vegetables. I tend to eat a lot of carrots sticks as snack. Below is a picture of what my meals look like.

 

The great thing about living a healthy lifestyle is that you become disciplined. You have too, you need to be health conscious and eat not just to lose some few kilos but to stay young, in good health and beautiful. But remember, you don’t have to be skinny to be fit. Everything is on inside.

We all have obsessions or cravings for something on a regular basic.

What is your obsession? Please do share.

Luv u beautiful boys and girls.

YOUR ARE BEAUTIFUL

Hi dolls,

Hope you are enjoying the beautiful weather...well I am, big time. I just hope we have a longer summer like we had a longer winter.
Today I want to tell you and to myself "you are beautiful". That is right. These days the medias and the fashion industry make us feel fat and not pretty. Well, we are pretty. The most important thing is the inside. If you feel pretty inside it will show on the outside and you will be confident with your weight and the way you look.
If you are in a friendship or in a relationship where the person is always putting you down, then that person is not worth your time and your breath. And remember that you will find someone who will like you just the way you are.

Ok my lovely dolls!!!

Enjoy the sun and please drink plenty of fluid.

Have a great week.

xoxo
