The Night Routine From Hell

It seems like the older you get the longer your bedtime routine becomes I've discovered. With the brushing of the teeth, flossing, picking and the mouthwash but guess what? You have only just begun because now you have the face to do.

Cleanse, tone and NIGHT moisturizer. Yes folks, it is now 1 cream for the day and another by night. God forbid a wrinkle or puffiness turns up to ruin your day.

Foot cream. My daughter has informed me that the after every bath and nightly application of foot cream fights off the oncoming crusty heels and keep athlete's foot at bay so it has now been added to the routine in a bid to miraculously sprout sexy feet and last but not least.

The creaming of the hands, elbows and knees. We all hate achey bits.

By the time I'm done with all this I am indeed ready for bed because my ass has just knocked out my reserve and I am truly tired.

I could say that we are all doing this for the men in our lives and blame them for yet another inconvenience so we could remain mildly interesting to them but I would be lying. It is all vanity and I for one will not be going down without a fight.

Good Night!

Quick Trim Diet

(Still have to add the diet and the exercise and a better account of what happened.)

Day 1. Took my tablets and feeling very nervy but i guess i have to wait for the body to adjust.

Day 2. Well i am having lots of BM (bowel movement) I don know how people go to work and go threw this. I am going alot but it is a cleanse so I am riding with it.

Day 3. Still having alot of BM but it is slowing down a bit. Don't have to run to the toilet. Lets just say I have the hang of it and can walk. Lost 5lbs

Day 4. Could not jog this morning if my life depended on it. My walk was more of a quick tight light glide step. Thank God for the cushioning in my shape ups. I just moved really fast an clinched my butt an tummy an hoped for the best. My tummy was like WDF did u put that greasy pizza in there for? Didn't we just clean that out? On the up side. After my abs, another BM and a shower the tummy settled down an my panic was over.

Day 8. Bloated and tired but went for my power walk as usual. Getting fed up of the BM and feeling hungry but just a few days to go.

Day 9. Took my tables and but now a new thing. I am feeling nauseous. Went for my walk anyway but it was really bad. I couldn't focus and had to stop a few time. Thats it. I draw the the line at nauseous. I will continue with the diet and water but i m done with the pills. At least for now. Lost 2 lbs so 7 lbs gone in all.

I think I will have a go again in 2 weeks but only for 3 or 4 days.

Day 10. Woke up for my walk at 8 am as usual and guess what? No rush to the toilet for BM. I can literally wake have a wee and a cup of tea then get dressed and hit the park. I am a happy bunny.

Shape Ups Sneaks

I had been checking out the Sketchers Shape Ups on line for a bit wondering if they really worked and then quite by coincidence I found another version for half the price at Sports Direct. Its the TS Sports version and the technology is the same so I decided to buy them and give them a try and they are amazing.

First I used them for the usuial family walk about and they were very comfortable and I felt a few corrections here and there to my posture but not till I took them for the propper test run did I get the propper feed back I was looking for.

I put them on for my power walk and right away I could feel the difference. These sneaks really do correct your walk and sort of set the pace. At first I had to slow down and really allow the shoes to correct my balance and gait I wasn't expecting this. I got really excited and decided to pay attention and see what these bad boys could really do.

I could feel it engaging my core muscle, the calves were next then the the back straightened out. Thighs, butt and inner thighs were all getting involved. The other big surprise was that all these muscles woke up in half the time it usually took and I was keenly aware of this.

I will be using them from now on of course and will give you an update at the end of the week because there was a bit of tweak in the lower back but I want to make sure its it a good working pain and not something else.

Recommendations : Remember to lace up properly because it really throws off your walk and balance.

Wear a proper pair of socks so you don't feel the fabric rubbing into your feet.

Not really for running and they say so but gave it a go none the less an it gives great bounce and recover but maybe the height might cause you to twist the ankle.

Go with the walk and remember to change up the pace.

My Weight Journey

I don't know if I told u guys this but I put on 28lbs after my operation. They tell you not to lift or stretch etc for 8 weeks but by that time we were into winter and getting my butt outside for a walk was not going to happen an who da hell works out in winter. So the lbs piled on and now I have been scrambling for the past month trying to remove the weight.
Problem is.... Its not shifting. I lost 4lbs in the first 2 weeks but 2 weeks later they were back with a friend. 1lb. I put on 5lbs and my ass has been working out 1hr an a half a day 5 days a week for a month. Madness!

I have come to a decision. I need a plan B,C+D. Desperate times call for desperate measures and I am taking you along with me.
I bought the Shape Ups sneeks (plan B) the Quick Trim is in the post (plan C) and my husband is on the hunt for the Cho Yung Tea (plan D)
I am not usuially this manic about my weight but the baby is 2 years plus now and frankly I am fed up of those maternity camouflage tops I drag out to hide the bump. Stepping onto the scale is another carry on as I brace myself to get disappointed and or depressed.

I don't want a crazy diet or to be stuck on diet pills or even to HAVE to work out 5 days a week. I just want the weight gone and I can take it from there.

From what I can tell my problem seems to be my metabolism. It has fallen into a deep sleep, a coma if u like and I NEED it to wake up hence the Quick Trim 14 day Burn and Cleanse. It is suppose to jump start your metabolism. I figure if Kim and Khloe already tried and tested it and it worked for them an lots of others I would give it a bash. They have been talking about it for ages. Long before the got the contract and Khloe is really smoking.

Finally the Cho Yung Tea. This tea has been used by the people of China and Asia for hundreds of years to stay in shape and it's completely natural with no side effects so at the very worst I will just be having 2cups of tea a day and I do that already.

I have been searching the internet for weeks now reading up on these 3 products so wish me luck on this journey.

Shame In Meh Eye

Well we just come back from play group and d boy put down a three course performance to end all performances.

Time to go and d boy bawl down d place like he on fire. Poor me trying to hold on d boy but he drop to d floor and start to roll around like a croc on crack. Shame in meh eye. D boy show dem all he colours, even d ones i eh c yet.

Again I have to say it. In Trini 2 hot slap and all dat would have come to a halt before he even hit d mat but in jolly old England we have to reason with them so he take full advantage an now that we home he have d nerve to b grinnin and skinnin like nothing happen.

THE MOVIE NINE

Watched the movie NINE last night and right off the top I would call it a celebration of woman.

Our sensuality, our capacity to love unconditionally, our forgiving nature and knowledge of self. All our strengths and weaknesses  beautifully portrayed in titillating imagery. You could almost taste the cameras intentions.

I would definitely watch it again.

Thats Wat U Get

Beware of french men and their extra sensitive shit. Every freekin word is measured with them it seems  and even after 8 years he's still pretends not to get it and it is getting right up my nose which brings me to my point.

When I use the work freekin I am just letting off a small bit of frustration like releasing the valve to let out a small bit of steam in appose to holding back and finally blowing up and having a full blown cuss out as we say on d island. So freek= steam F*@k mudda a**= cuss out.

Maybe he has not seen the other one is so long that he has forgotten but keep scratching at my tree and he will get the reminder he is looking for.

Peace&Love

(Ommmm)

The Ear Factor

My Idiot husband woke me a whole half an hour early thereby solidifying the already know fact that men only ever listen to the first half of what we say if any.

The cry of women everywhere again rings out. "He never listnes to me." We are yet again proven right but at what cost.I'll tell you shall I. My freakin half an hour sleep.
GOOD MORNING!
