GETTING READY FOR A BUSY 2016: HOW TO PREPARE IN ADVANCE

As we step into 2016 and get back into the swings of things it's sometimes hard not to feel overwhelmed. All that work you've not had to do for two weeks has been waiting on your desk plus those extra few pounds you've put on over Christmas are making you feel like you've gained five dress sizes. Not to mention the unhealthy bank balance after a few months of indulging your loved ones!

Are you with me so far? I thought so... So what if we take a little look back to November, we were cool, calm and collected right? So take a leaf out of your own book, you know how to do it. I have a to-do list for a to-do list for both work and my blog. There's no better feeling that crossing something of it, so step back to last year and channel you're inner you. 

When it comes to fitness you really need to set yourself goals. Whether that's to loose a dress size, tone your arms or simply drop those extra few pounds, you need clear goals in order to judge your own success. Try and workout at least three times a week, but if you don't really go to the gym try and go for long walks with a friend, you'll do 10,000 steps in no time as you chat away. Swap your lunch time meal deal for one of these Healthy Lunch Recipes and your fizzy drinks for water. Give yourself an hour a day to completely be selfish and focus on you and I bet come February you'll feel like a brand new person! 

The only person who can make 2016 is you, don't rely on anyone else for your happiness!
