Did you know it is Breast Cancer Awareness Month?

If you are like me, I didn’t know!

I am probably like many young women, who live very busy lives and seem to forget how important it is to check our breasts.

As I was going to the Doctors surgery today, I thought I will pick some leaflets up with regards Breast Cancer, This is a area I like so many do not really know how or what I should do to check my breasts.

Being that I am very lucky (some may say!) to have a big bosom, this can be harder as there is so much of them to check (oh and remember the armpit area too!!!).

Things run through your mind before you check them “How about if I feel something?” or “How about if I miss a spot and there is a lump!!!!”

All these and much, much more haunt our thoughts.

The scary thing is Cancer is everywhere and we all must make sure we are on top of our game, and be brave, take a deep breath and check!

I am now going to get into a regular pattern of doing this, I am 27 years old and have already lost my Mum to Lung Cancer, so I know how evil this disease can be, but on a plus point a very dear friend of mine survived breast cancer!

Breast cancer is very curable now and survivle rates are on the up.

So ladies, lets all together start checking those breasts!!!!!!!!!!!

Just to end my latest blog, why not do what I do and give a few pounds to Cancer Research each month! With one in three of us now getting touched by cancer, i think  £3 a month is worth it to help them keep beating this!

Well hello there guys!

Long time no Blog!

With my Mum, Christmas and moving house I sadly have not been giving my Blog the full attention I should be giving it!

So I am back, and ready to keep you guys updated of my crazy life and trying to loose weight.

So on Monday 11th January my new diet starts (again)

I weigh a hefty 13 and half stone, and all I want is to get down to 10 and half stone to be a nice size UK  12 – 14!

So today I am trying the amazing Slimfast diet.

I wanted to do Lighterlife, the starvation diet which you live on 500kcals a day and you put your body into Ketosis to burn all that fat instead of those carbs!
Sadly at over £90 a week I can’t really afford to do that. And also I know people who have turned into monsters on the diet, well starving yourself would drive you crazy!

So the cheapest option is the lovely Slimfast, similar in the way you live on shakes and stuff, but different in a way you can get one proper meal a day, yes I said it right a PROPER MEAL.

So my breakfast and lunch has consisted of a banana Slimfast and plenty of fruit and low fat snacks.

The game plan is to have a shake and then a snack every two hours.

I have to admit I have felt light headed with a slight headache (a bit like i am drunk!) and quite tired.

But my first week has been good, I surprisingly felt full through the day, and only really hungry the last couple of hours before my dinner.

I did visit my doctor, on Wednesday who informed me that Slimfast is only ok to do for a few weeks, but I thought hey, if I am not bored and it keeps me feeling full why not give it the whole month!

So of course, I may of abandoned you for a while, but I am back on track to keep you updated with how this goes!

NOW – Cat News!!!!

Yes there would have to be something on my blog about cats!!!!

I have just stumbled onto this new site thanks to ICHC, called FourFour The guy who wrights the blog has the most cutest cat ever, called Winston and really, any Cat lover worth their Hello Kitty collection should look at this.

Hi Guys and Girls!

Well life has been too hectic over the past few months. With my Nanny diing, my Mum’s Cancer battle, A shot gun wedding and to loose a stone before the big day!

So we finally have managed to plan the wedding and get it booked and sorted, It may of took us over 4 years buy finally we are on the road to marriage.

Like every Bride, I have got a dress too small and now having to beat the bulge and get my ass into this dress!

I have less than 8 weeks to do this.

I have tried:

Gym session made up by a trainer: Didn’t loose weight, Got told it will make me slimmer. (with a BMI of 31, i think i need a bit more than just toning!!!!!)

Low fat meals: ummm worked a bit, but i still felt hungry and kept cheating

Kellogg’s cereal diet: I have only done 1 day but it seems to work, i am not feeling too hungry, but today is my day off from work, so i had 2 low fat Hot Cross Buns (i really only needed 1, i feel well full!!!!)

So as you can see i am trying everything out! I am only doing Cardio and a tiny bit of weights on my arms for now. I just need to shift as much as possible, it doesn’t help when you have parties to go to and meals out…..

I have also thought about lent and what to give up…. I thought Wine (I love my wine) But I work with it, and having to go to a big tasting in Manchester in March would not help! (You can’t look a gift horse in the mouth, It’s rude!!!) So I have chosen my most wonderful treat i love…. CHIPS!

So with everything going on, I am fighting! I am fighting to be positive for my mum, I am fighting that i am so going to get in my wedding dress which my lovely friends at work brought for me, and I am fighting the gym (my arch enemy!)

I am a glass full kinda girl! I like to be happy and up beat, too many years of being a teenager bullied and being so unhappy, has taught me this.

I have so much to be thankful for, A loving family, great friends and a man I completely adore and love! What more can a girl ask for!

I of course will keep you updated on how everything goes…..

Lots of Love

P.s has anyone got any MAC hello kitty yet???

I really don’t need to say too much… but the new Hello Kitty Mac Cosmetics line is now available to buy online in the U.S.

Go there now

Of course you’ll need a friend in the America to post it on!

Hi Guys

I have finally joined the world of Twitter. (after watching Lorraine Kelly talking about Phillip Schofield on it!)

I have to admit, I understand the concept – Yes just like Facebook without all the apps!, but it’s  just not that easy to use. (Maybe i am having a blond day!!!!)

I found “following” people easy, but finding what people are talking about hard. I had to go to the bottom of the page and find a little block of links.

Then i noticed people replying to each other! Thought that was fun why not give it a go! That was even more harder, if no one is following you, you have to find the user name copy and paste it after the @ then sent it – what a long way around things!!!!

I am sure in time i will grow to love it, or get bored with it as i have with Facebook apps! (love facebook though, just not all those annoying “give someone a drink” lark!)

So if you ever are on twitter my user name is misskitty83. Very me you would agree!!!!!

Love tews xxxxxxxxxxx

After a quick search on Twitter for Hello Kitty tweets i was alerted to the fact that Hello Kitty is bringing out a Mac Cosmetics range!!!! I’ve signed up for the email alert at Mac Cosmetics straight away!

See a pic off the range on the right.

Hello Kitty Mac Cosmetics

According to this post the new Hello Kitty makeup will out on February 10th.

Here’s looking forward to more Hello Kitty goodness,

Hi Guys

Well I had bad news the other day, my mum has been diagnosed with Lung Cancer. I am the first person to get angry and shout that she should of never smoked and I have always told her to give up since i was little.

Now the sad truth is that she has now got that dreaded c word.

I don’t bang on about it as much as my poor fiance who is as just heart broken by it all as me, he has a blog Final Puff which he talks about the dangers of smoking. Read his post dedicated to the news here.

The thing with Lung Cancer is you don’t need to smoke to get it, you can be just a innocent bystander; a kid whose parents smoke, someone who works in a bar (thank god for the smoking ban) or just someone with a partner or friend who smokes.

I don’t mean to play the blame game on people who smoke. I have lived with smokers all my life (My mum, dad, Brother, Aunts, Uncles and now evan cousins!) I just wish people would stop such a nasty habit.

Adverts do not work, people who smoke turn them off and don’t look at them, same with the adverts on cigarette papers.

It is such a hard habit to break, my Dad said to me a couple of days ago that he has been smoking for 40 years it’s not something he can just give up. His mother smoked all her life and gave up at 60, she sadly has really bad enthasemia so she can’t live without oxygen units throughout her house all the time.

Please anyone who reads this, Mums, Dads, kids, etc.. think. Think what pain you will bring your family if you get cancer.

I love my Mum more than anything in the whole world she is my bestest friend. She has been through so much, and most of that was with me. I had a horrid Teen life with being bullied and suffering with really bad OCD (which i still suffer with in bouts and i am sure this situation won’t help matters). She is my rock, my light, my angel, and i hate that smoking has done this to her.

So please try and give up smoking before you get the C word.

Walking home i spotted a suspiciously pink banner on an AdShel bus shelter. It contained only a search box with Oohgle written in it. So being someone that is all too easily duped by advertising i checked it out when i got home. Turns out it’s a cunning marketing ploy by a marketing company out to prove the power of advertising. It worked on me with completely no prior knowledge of what Oohgle was all about!

Why don’t you check out Oohgle for yourself (you’ll then be an oohgler?!).. there’s prizes to be won too for a well known cola brand!

Hi Guys

I couldn’t believe my eyes when i saw a Hello Kitty soft toy dressed up as a Panda in a window of a kitchy toy shop in Norwich called Indiana’s Toy Store.

This store is not your normal toy store, this is much more fabulous! They have some crazy toys you just wouldn’t get anywhere else!

You can get Hello Kitty Lanterns, Stitch sunshine buddies and the craziest Barbie’s you could ever find.

The shop is small and can be quite cramped with so much stock but it is so worth delving in to find some great buys.

So if your looking for something kitchy and different for your Christmas presents, you will find it at Indiana’s.

It doesn’t matter how old you are there is always some cool toy you know even the biggest kid wil love!

Love
