What I like... gif style!

Here are a few of my favourite things... gif style!!


Chocolate - I have lost count of the number of times I have tried to lessen my intake but I always fail miserably. I crave the stuff. 

I do, I do... [Source]


Blogging - I love blogging. I get to share my thoughts and feelings with all you fabulous bloggers. I also love being able to read all your comments and reply. I have made some good friends blogging, it's a supportive community.


I love a good blog event ... [Source]

Trashy TV - I love nothing better than getting wrapped up on the sofa and watching trashy TV shows. Many people will judge TV viewing habits but I just don't care. I love some trashy TV and that's that. Breaking Amish and Honey Boo Boo anyone?

Don't we all Honey Boo Boo? [Source]


Finding things out
- I have quite a thirst for information and knowledge. I like to know things. If I watch a movie, the first thing I do is go onto IMDB and read up on the actors and actresses, the trivia and message boards. If I am told something I will research all there is to know about it. 


When you gotta know, you gotta know! [Source]

Working out - I have toyed with many different types of workouts through the years. My favourites would have to be ballet, pole, boxercise and yoga. As you can see I am more of a class kinda girl. The idea of motivating myself in the gym doesn't really do it for me at all. I love to get the endorphins going and I like the challenge of new moves. 


Oh to workout like Penny... [Source]

I wanna back my azz up this week to a song which is on my favourite album of the moment - Simple Songs by The Shins (Album - Port of Morrow).




What do you like? Are there any other chocolate loving, trash tv watching, blogging, information craving, fitness fanatic out there?

Work that body...

I am getting my spirit back and with that is the growing realisation that my body is so out of shape. I would not classify myself as a 'fitness freak' or even someone who MUST go to the gym every other day or I feel like crap. I enjoy exercising, I have fun and like to feel my body working.

I would say I have not had any consistent exercise routine for at least the past 8 months or so. Between travel, hospital runs, illness and just general lowness I have not felt like I had the energy to do day to day things let alone exercise. This week things are changing. I am gradually getting over the anaemia which has seen me suffer from such chronic fatigue and illnesses it was not great.

My first return to fitness? My pole dancing lessons! If you've never tried them before they are lots of fun. I have been pole dancing for a good few years now on and off. It can be a pretty brutal work out what with the potential for bruises and supporting of your own weight but I love it. My arms just respond so well and the stomach tones up pretty well too.





I can definitely tick all these bruises off... ouch! [Source]


I am going to try this for a couple weeks and then go back to yoga sessions too. Yoga will then hopefully bring a bit of calmness to me and my thoughts. Also, it gives a pretty good stretch. When I was doing yoga regularly my body became very lean which was great. Last but not least? I want to get back into my running, one step at a time but having aspirations is a good start!


If all else fails I will skip the yoga and just remember this.. [Source]
