Suddenly 30!

Today is my thirtieth Birthday!

I celebrated with my most fav cousins on earth! I was treated to lunch at Penrith Panthers, they have a great little noodle bar in there. I got some awesome balloons that my god son picked just for his there was fairys, dinosaurs and butterfly printed on them and not to mention the blatantly obvious 30 balloon.

 

I also received a gorgeous watch from a very special guy in my life. Spoilt me! Pierre Cardin goodness!!



Most recently you may have noticed that I have been blogging about Project Hotness. I chose an outfit that would compliment my personality and show off a pic of my style. Teal is my colour of choice lately,  and crocheted clothes make up most of my cardigans too. 


My gorgeous and charming god son, Alexander. He is my special little guy.

Project Hotness - Less 3kg! Now 95kg!



So I started out on a challenge to get myself all clean and healthy before I'm thirty. I wanted to be more active, which I have done since the start of the year. I have been doing so much research of late on diabetes too to find what foods are really beneficial to a diabetic for optimum energy levels and help with weight loss. I stumbled across the Paleo diet, also known as the cave man diet. Basically anything that is harvest and grown agriculturally, is a no no. e.g. potatoes and rice.

I befriended another walker who I had passed quite regularly on my morning and on my evening walks. He has been quite a inspiration for me, he walks to relieve stress and encourages me to walk to loose those couple extra kilos Ive been storing since getting out of the big house (hospital). Although I should have worn a tighter top to show off my newer leaner figure!

Im happy to say Im so please with myself being under 100kgs now, I was never proud of my weight but I always believe you have to love the body you were given, although mine has been through such a rough trot the last 5years Im happy to say Im very well looked after now! 

So why the title? Another good friend of mine had ask what I had been doing as my lovely selfies that I had posted on some social media, were looking rather "hot" - well that was a compliment and a half from him! So in turn I decided that this was a perfect name for my very own personal project to better myself.

Need more info on the Paleo Diet? Here is some great links to check out with information and even recipes to follow

The beginners guide to the Paleo Diet - I found this website the most factual and helped me understand the basic guidelines to the diet. Plus, how cute are the little lego men!

Happy Easter!


This is the Pavlova I decorated in easter theme! I cracked open a hollow chocolate egg, and dolloped whipped cream and then some passionfruit in there to resemble a cracked egg.
