Fat Fridays – Forgiveness 06.08.2021 Before Those that hurt me, I allowed them to continue, whether that be name-calling, mocking my appearance and 9/10 I agreed with them. ‘You’re so fat!’ ‘You look ugly.’ ‘Your ass is massive!’ ‘Your face is so dark. Black and ugly.’ ‘Look at your ugly duck lips.’ Sure, I wouldContinue reading “Fat Fridays: Forgiveness 06.08.2021”

Anxiety
It only takes one word, one action, one thought. Anxiety eats through me, like Bloody Mary’s onslaught. I try not to think, but I think over and over. I speak, and nothing makes sense, anxiety takes over. Most times, I manage it and peace keeps me going. Meditations in the morning, Chilled Cow tones flowing.Continue reading “Anxiety”
Naked
Naked Some mornings I wake up and begin my day by playing relaxing tunes – purely instrumental. I have a hot shower and pamper myself with a homemade body scrub (which is a mix of olive oil and brown sugar.) Then I wrap myself in a warmed towel, enter my bedroom and pat myself dry.Continue reading “Naked”
Mind Free
Mind Free Earlier this week, I felt stifled with my life. Everyone inside and out just taking up space it was impossible to breathe. I find that when I can’t think straight, I prefer to be alone – even when people are just trying to help and offer advice. I’m highly indecisive when put onContinue reading “Mind Free”

But I stayed and breathed on. Before starting, I asked the yoga teacher if it is aimed at ‘beginners?’ He said, ‘anyone canContinue reading “Yoga FLAME/SHAME(?) nah.”
Tea Time with Pukka
Late last night, I made a mug of Pukka Tea, #PukkaCleanse to be exact. After consuming a large portion of battered chips 😔I felt a combination of sadness, disappointment and the need to fix it. The taste (for me) was awful. But I downed it, I finished to whole cup. It’s goodness that will noContinue reading “Tea Time with Pukka”
Got Milk?
For as long as I can remember, I’ve always suffered from acne. More so during menstruation but generally throughout non-menstrual days. Big bumpy, unsightly spots! My daily breakfast (previously) consisted of a 40g bowl of porridge with a cup of milk! Throughout the day, I enjoyed drinking hot-chocolate, with a mountain of whipped cream…Mmm AcneContinue reading “Got Milk?”
The Hold Up – Sports Bras
It has taken me months to locate a ‘high support,’ sportsbra. I’ve tried on so many from Adidas and Nike (hard to purchase my size) I must say the Adidas sports bras look amazing on the mannequins. They’re impossible to get on, some appear to have been designed by a man…no offence. Finally, I triedContinue reading “The Hold Up – Sports Bras”
