How Do Our Eating Habits Differ By Region – It will come to no surprise to anyone, but I love food. There’s nothing nicer than enjoying a really nice cooked meal, especially if you’re out with friends and enjoying a few drinks with it too! It seems that the rest of Britain agrees with me – with 66% of UK adults saying they’re passionate about food and that 53% of millennials admit to eating out at least once a week. In fact, food is one of our biggest spends, with an average of £44 per person being spent each week on restaurant bills.

Making A Splash in 2018

by Leave a Comment

With the brand new year fast approaching, I bet you’re bombarded
with emails about New Year Resolutions and changes you can make for the next 52
weeks. 
Firstly let me say that you do
not need to make any changes to your body if you do not want to, and you
certainly don’t need a brand new year as an excuse. If there is something you
want to change or do differently, you can do that anytime – not just the new
year!
Changing Your Habits
One of the biggest things that
people tell us for the new year is that we should change something about
ourselves to be better. This can be to eat less, move more or simply eat
differently – these can be quite strong messages and only something you should
listen to if you would like to!


Treat Yourself
The way I see it, you are
perfect just the way you are and you are not obligated to change your body or
do anything differently. However, if you do decide that there is something that
you want to change – treat yourself and approach it from a place of positive
rather than negative.
Want to move more? Treat
yourself to some plus size
swimwear and go swimming because you love it and not because some
resolution has made you feel like you are obligated to. Your body is something
that should be treated with love and nothing less.
Commit To Loving Yourself
I realise that sometimes loving
your body can feel like an upwards battle but I promise that you can get there.
If you do want to make a change this new year, why not make it to be kinder to
yourself? if you are struggling then get online and read lots of body positive
hashtags for inspiration – places such as #Effyourbeautystandards on Instagram
is a really good place to start!
The thing with body confidence
is that it can be a long journey, but it is worth it. Remember that small
steps can make a difference, so take something that you dislike and work on
improving this, and you will notice that you feel so much different. So for example,
if you feel self-conscious about your arms spend a little time each day with
these out – remove a cardigan while in the office or spend sometime in front
of the mirror admiring your arms and seeing how wonderful they are.
A big part of not liking ourselves is fear of the unknown. We don’t
often see fat bodies in the media so it can seem unusual so you need to get
yourself used to seeing bodies that look like yours.
This is where reading plus size size blogs can really help,
because you get to see a variety of bodies of various shapes and sizes, so it really
helps to bring home the fact that your body is not unusual, and even though it
is unique to you – it is brilliant!
Spend 2018 loving yourself!

I am big fan of honesty when it comes to dating, it can make for some awkward conversations but why would you want to be left wondering whether someone is interested, when you could just ask?
