I wasn’t going to write an official ‘New
Years Resolutions’ post as I wasn’t going to bother making official
resolutions. I tend to make them and break them, so I figured what’s the point?
Now it’s a month through the year and it’s going fairly well so I thought
I’d share with you the changes I’m making!
Health Resolutions
First one, which is my biggest, promise to
myself, and probably the most common resolution, is to get healthier. During my
time at University I gained a fair amount of weight and it’s lead to a high
blood pressure. Although the problems are nothing serious my healthcare
professionals would rather it be bought down to prevent further health issues
in my later years. So I’ve started to watch the calories and the sugar/fat
intake, I’ve been following the 5:2 diet, which you can find more about here on
my blog. It’s going well and although its been a matter of weeks I’ve lost
weight and I’m feeling so much more healthy, so I’m really trying to keep this
resolution.
Beauty Resolutions
I’ve made a couple of beauty resolutions
that I’d like to share with you guys. First up is to address my skincare, I
spend so much money on makeup but not enough attention goes to skincare. I’d
love to find a skincare routine that I love and make a vow to fully cleanse in
the morning and night, rather than slapping on the micellar water every time!
I own loads (I’m talking hundreds) of nail
polishes but I’ve never taken real time to look after my nails. I’ve invested in
cuticle remover and sticks etc, to make sure I’m looking after my nails in the
best way! I’m already loving how they look and I want them to look lovely every
single day this year.
Personal Resolutions
Personal goals are always things I try to
address because it’s safe to say I’m a fairly emotional person. I tend to put
myself out there to be hurt and trampled on, so I’ve promised in 2014 that I’m
not going to let that happen. I’m going to spend my time, money and efforts spending
time with family and friends who love me back. I’m fed up of trying to reach
out to people who close the door on me and hurt me, so from now on my life is
going to be reserved for those who want to be a part of it!
And that is everything; I didn’t want to
make a ton of resolutions, just a few small goals that are achievable! What are
your resolutions?
