♥~'Final' Weight loss~♥

So~ This is just a quick tip/tutorial for those trying to lose weight. Although I'm not completely sure of a healthy way of losing weight that works, I can definitely give tips on how to keep it
off and some exercises and motivation/other people who may help you!

If you remember~ back in March I lost 22lbs in about a week and a half...according to my doctor xD I didn't believe this...until I got back to school and all my clothes were falling down (I was off school and was only wearing huge tracksuits xD -- Like the chav I am ^^) Basically, I lost 2 dress sizes in under two weeks.

I was determined to keep this off, I think it was the utter determination that led me to the success of my project to be honest. I was at my heaviest weight the start of this year and I was talking of diets a lot, I was doing my morning banana diet...but it wasn't getting very far. The fact that I managed to get my weight down, showed me that it was possible. Everyone I knew liked my new look. They all made sure they supported me and thanks to my great unnis supports~ I managed to stick with it~ 
Obviously I'd like to thank them~ without my unnis standing up for me --- yeah~~ I know >< it sounds awful xD --- and my doctors for keeping up with everything~ I'm now in a routine I like~
I'd like to share my workout tips/routines with you and you can just take whatever you like~ I think the best thing to do with diets is to find one which you can cope with. Find one which is sustainable!


Here's my little 'recipe' on weight loss then!::

Friends/Family ---When you tell people you are going to lose weight and you have people to nag you constantly about it~ you can't forget about it~ so you're going to remember not to go back for seconds or to go on that jog~
Self Control  ---Without the use of self control a diet is virtually impossible. Self control is needed to stop yourself over eating and spending to much time on pleasures and not enough exercising!
Don't Focus On Weight! ---My problem at the moment is my actual weight! Due to the types of exercise/sports I do, I put on muscle~ so I put on lots of weight~ my dongsaengs also actually weigh a lot but look tiny due to muscle:fat ratios~ so focus on measurements not weight!
Know When To Stop  ---If you get a cold, fall ill or it's exam time~ Don't put too much pressure on yourself~ you need to make sure you have enough energy in these times~ Weight loss comes second, health first!!
Be Healthy!!  ---The amount of times I have to say this, no matter what happens, don't resort to skipping meals! It just adds weight quicker when you eat again and it's not sustainable~ so please just make the portion smaller or substitute things~ don't skip a meal completely!
Find Something That Works  ---And stick with it~ once you've found something you like, stick with it and maintain your goals~ tell your friends about it and work together! ^^

She also does ballet and has a great figure and skin~
So she's obviously got something right! ^__~)

EXERCISE~~
Exercising is something I can actually do~ it's something I'm actually good at! I struggle on the eating~ I'm a fussy vegetarian so dieting barely works, but exercising is great! You feel great after wards as well~ but you've all heard all the normal things, jog, yoga, aerobics, swimming all the normal things~ Zumba is good for those not particularly used to exercise or as a warm up~ but I don't feel much from it I'm afraid...T__T
I always like looking at the exercises in magazines~ J-magazines have such fun exercises in them! xD
(Like this one! xD)


Bodyline Review~


So you may remember that quite a while back I ordered some items from bodyline~ I was going to order my seifuku from either CONOMi or Candy Sugar but they were both really expensive compared to the Bodyline stuff and I used to use Bodyline when I did Lolita so I am used to their service - I don't like ordering from new stores!

Now, less rambling and more reviewing~
The items themselves came really quickly within like 3 days I think so that was really good, I used just standard boring delivery so it was all good!
The packaging~ It was so small! ^^ My mum's delivery came the same day
she bought barely anything and it came in a HUGE  package!

Eum~ yeah this is the back....><

When I opened it...this was the entire contents


I bought two hair ties at like 50p each!

The ribbon~ I originally wanted a pink one but it sold out T-T

The skirt packaged up~

Layed out~

The washing label~ my mum says Japanese/Korean washing
labels are easy to follow...I don't understand them. But she
doesn't speak either language well so please trust her! xD

This is the clasp thing? Three different settings for different
waist sizes

Supposedly this is a hem. I didn't realise this at first....
So I was going to complain about it in my review.
Apparently it's all fine though...It was one of those temporary ones...

The ribbon. It doesn't work as a baggy one...it's not long enough.

Here's the clasp for the ribbon

The ties are really thick! And sturdy! Need I say again they were
FIFTY PENCE?

Don't smell the glue though. It stinks. Bad.

They were tied up funny. I found it rather amusing.


Thanks! I'm so glad I finally got my full seifuku to go with my blazer, socks, shoes and bag~ it's great fun!
I love Nanchatte Seifuku~^^ I'm a little disappointed that I didn't get a pink ribbon, but I do love this one!
So thanks Bodyline for your speedy delivery!

Now for the final results!

The delivery was great! Eum~ the quality is hard to comment on because obviously Bodyline is much cheaper than CONOMi, Uniqlo and Candy Sugar so I can't compare. But considering how little I paid...It's great quality. The packaging was good. If anything it was too cramped. The skirt was quite crinkled because it was folded up so much. The ordering itself...It gets confusing. There are so many steps, so many questions. I wish there was a sign up option for the site so I only have to enter my details once.
