Spring Cleaning

So it's that time of year when I start to think about spring cleaning, this can be anything from my diet, my house, my make up routine, my life & my mind. 


I'm going to start off with my life, I need to de clutter everything, make sure I'm not trying to be super woman and do everything at once and by myself! I'm a very happy person, don't let things easily get me down but I do panic about certain things that are normally out of my control. I think I'm quite an optimistic person and the glass is defiantly half full!! 
SLOW DOWN DONT PANIC ... Done!!
My diet ... Where do I start?? Do I go all crazy and cut everything out or do I do it gradually, in August/September last year I did the Dukan diet and lost a considerable amount of weight and maintained it for nearly 6 months, I can now see the weight creeping back on and I'm not happy with it, I'm hoping to loose a further 21lbs and I think I'll be happy. Question is how am I going to do this, I'm going to start Dukan diet again for a few weeks, just to kick start my weight loss. I'm going to add in the gym twice a week and a work out DVD at home twice a week, this I feel should be done without causing much disruption in my normal day to day life. 
DUKAN GYM DVD ... Done!!!
My make up ... I defiantly need to spring clean my daily routine, it's been the same now for as long as I can remember ... I've also been using the same products for such a long time it's defiantly time for a change!! I'm thinking of venturing from drugstore foundation to more higher end products, I want a light coverage foundation for normal to dry skin ... Any recommendations?? I've also got quite a few MAC lipsticks piling up and realising I don't use them on a daily basis so that's something I want to change ... A lip colour can change your whole look!! 
NEW FOUNDATION & LIPSTICK ...Done!!
I'm not the kind of person who thinks that as soon as its spring time you have to have a major over haul of your home and send lots of bags to the charity shops and even more to the local tip. As me and the boy moved into a new house in November we got rid of most of our junk then but it has slowly started accumulating again so I think i need to invest in lots of cute storage boxes so it looks all neat and tidy on my shelving unit. 
BOXES CLUTTER TIDIED ... Done!!
Do you spring clean your life?

  2. Love this post! I am constantly trying to spring clean loads of aspects of my life, diet seems to be a major thing I just keep re doing over and over, I seem to get focused, lose a bit, then just stop - it's ok in the respect that when I'm not focused on it I don't put the weight back on (maybe a pound or two) but it would be nice to just really focus my energy on it once and for all.

    Happy Easter xxx
