Was January a total fail ? Did you aim to lose a stone, only to gain a muffin top? Join a gym, and go...like twice. Try to go wheat-free, and end up with a serious croissant addiction?
It's totally OK- because you have a second chance! It's called #Fabruary – you are going to totally rock it this month. Why? Because the mornings are getting lighter, you aren't quite as skint – meaning more money to spend on fresh veggies and fitness apps. And, even though you didn't quite manage to complete the 'dryathlon' or 'veganuary' ( look after a night on the Prosecco, we all need a bacon sarnie!) you still have the best intentions, and it's five whole weeks until Easter. That's easily enough time to lose half a stone. I know all the chocolate eggs are already in the shops, but you can pick one as your treat, and when you lose that half stone – you can go eat a whole lindt bunny, because you deserve it! Mental health is just as important as physical health – so get out in the crisp frosty air for a 15 minute power-walk or just run round the park like Phoebe from Friends. Do a Facebook Cull. Throw out all your out-of-date make-up and greying underwear. Make home-made honey and oat face packs, then post the results on Instagram. Learn a new skill – like how to say “I am Fabulous” in Japanese. Only drink wine on a Wednesday, Friday and Saturday night. We all deserve a #MidWeekMerlot afterall. Wear odd socks ( It's supposed to be lucky!) and write a haiku. You can post in on twitter #3linesOfMagic. Think positive. Whatever you do, don't beat yourself up. January is a terrible month, but you survived. Bring on #Fabruary !
