I’ve decided to move across to somewhere new and continue this blog. I’ve moved all my content so please take a look at www.thefatgirlguide.com to keep following my journey!
Its safe to say that unless you've been hiding under a rock, you'll be aware that this weekend the UK was hit with a big dusting of the white stuff. So how did the snow affect me and my mission to become fit? Well... honestly, it threw me off the waggon a bit. Being snowed in and off work means eating everything in sight. I managed to get to work on Thursday before the snow hit and because it was cold I sought comfort in the Big yellow M and tucked in to some chicken nuggets. I decided that I'd rather be stranded with my friend if I was going to be snowed in rather than being at home so I got some supplies, not your normal milk and bread, I opted for diet coke, strawberries, bacon and yoghurt then I headed off to Emily's when the snow started. We'd planned a healthy dinner of Honey mustard chicken, vegetables and sweet potato followed by some protein pancakes and fruit it was lovely and definitely 6 pack friendly but then somehow I'd also managed to scoff an

Look for opportunities to be more active, what better way to take in the real vibe from a City than to explore it on foot. Buses and Metros are great for tho
I guess what they preach is true, when you think positively about yourself your whole perspective changes. After the success of fitting into my bridesmaids dress I was riding the wave, feeling positive, feeling beautiful and most of all I was feeling confident in my own skin for the first time in a while. This was the first time I actually thought fuck it and wore whatever I wanted including closes that are not usually worn by 'larger women' such as high waist jeans.

I'd been tempted to book it back in October when my self esteem and moral was at an all time low due to a tough breakup but I really wasn't feeling very sexy, especially after finding out my Ex had been messaging other women behind my back. That really gives you a knock in the confidence department. Luckily a childhood fr
