10 Minute Workouts

I've been running for just under a year now but just lately had a few niggles in the old joints so have decided to combine the running with some strengthening exercises.   Check this out.  Quick, intense and no gym equipment - perfect when you haven't got a great deal of time.

30 Day Water Challenge

I've just completed Week 1 of the30 Day Water Challenge.  Weekend was a bit tricky but I'm hanging in there.  The benefits are:

Water makes you smarter.  According to the experts, water in your diet makes our brain react faster

Water will help you age slower as large amounts of water will help your skin retain moisture

Water boosts your metabolism and immune system

Water keeps your heart healthy as it dilutes your blood which prevents clotting.

Water acts as an appetite suppressant and contains no calories

Water saves money as it's 100% free

Water helps rebuild your "shock absorber cartilage" which helps your bones move smoothly

January has been and gone ....... Boom!

Thank goodness we have managed to get through January.  Yes, we have seen some cold snaps but there are signs of spring - the bulbs are popping through and the days are starting to draw out.  

But I don't know about you - money is still a little tight.  My normal moisturiser ran out just after Christmas and with some heavy Christmas hints to the children being ignored, I decided that I would try and be frugal in January and buy something a little cheaper.  I came across Simple Replenishing Rich Moisturiser on special offer for £1.50 from normal retail price of £3 at my local supermarket.



Enriched with Pro-Vitamin B5 and Bisabol, it really does leave your skin feeling moisturised and I am not the only one who is raving about this.  Reviews from people who have used this cream state that it is the best moisturiser they have ever used and for some it's the only moisturiser they ever buy especially for those with troublesome skin.

To Simple - I'm really impressed.
