Over lockdown (one, two and three), I wasn't exactly eating great. I've never been a great cook anyway, to be honest. I would have been the best contestant for "Can't Cook, Won't Cook" because I could have been on either team. I've just never really had the time (or energy) to learn to cook. I ...
7 powerful but normal emotions I didn’t expect to feel after I got a job
I got a job! Yes, 13 months after being made redundant, a global pandemic, hundreds of job applications, zoom interviews, socially distanced face to face interviews, application ghosting and so many rejection letters. I have a job. I can't express the relief I feel to have a job, something to do ...
10 LIFE CHANGES WHICH HAVE IMPROVED MY ANXIETY
6 months ago, I thought I was actually going to lose it again. Nervous breakdown imminent. Pending anxiety attacks. Hairloss. The works. However, somehow I've managed to pull myself together over the last few months and now I feel....bloody fantastic. This is actually the best I've felt in such a ...
BIGGEST SHOCKS AND CHANGES IN MY FIRST WEEK OF SLIMMING WORLD
Immediately after my first Slimming World meeting, after listening to people talking about Food and Syns for about an hour, I went home and probably scoffed about half a box of chocolates. I didn't Syn them either. I knew from the get go this whole process was going to be hard. I even said several ...
WHY YOU SHOULDN’T FREAK OUT BEING SINGLE IN YOUR 30’S
Hello! My name is Natasha. I'm 32 and I'm single. I say this like I'm standing up at some group therapy meeting. When I tell people that I'm single, I quite often get sighs, reassurance and sad looks. I'm not in trouble, I'm not an addicted to anything and I don't have some sort of life threatening ...
AM I STILL SINGLE BECAUSE OF MY ASPERGERS?
I would like to say that I believe the answer is NO, because most of my ex's were nobs. Jokes. Well, not really. They really are nobs. I had very bad taste in guys, just ask any of my friends of family. However, I do believe my Asperger's has taken some role on my dating life. I was diagnosed with ...
MONTHLY FAVOURITES | JANUARY 2018
It's my first ever favourites. I've always wanted to start one but couldn't decide if I should do this on my YouTube channel or in the blog. As you can see, it's in the blog. Why? I want to keep my YouTube for adventures and my blog for information. My favourites are also going to be a lot ...
FITNESS FAVOURITES, FAILS AND GOALS | JANUARY 2018
It's time. To get back. To business. That's right, I'm back on the health train but not by choice. Well, sort of. I've been very unwell lately and with a massive lack of motivation to match, I've let me weight slip. I actually hate the amount of weight I've put on and I can't wait to do something ...
112 DATES OF CHRISTMAS

Make very big mistakes at the Work Christmas party and hope you still have a job the next day. Let's not forget going home and the ...
SMALL TOWN GIRL, BIG CITY DATING
There's plenty more fish in the sea. Once a comforting phrase to console someone taking a hard hit in the dating scene. Now, it's just a phrase which annoys me to my core. Not because it's not true, but because it's not accurate. This statement is completely depends on where you live. When you live ...
WHY YOU SHOULD DELETE TINDER AND GO SPEED DATING!
Since I moved to London, I've really struggled on the dating scene. Why? You would think with a city full of singletons it would be easy to find a date for a Friday night. No, it's not. Sorry to break this to you but living in London is nothing like Sex and the City. Yes, this isn't New York but ...
WHY I’VE BEEN STRUGGLING WITH MY MENTAL HEALTH IN LONDON?
I've been living in London for nearly 2 years now. Yes, I have done some amazing things during my time here. All my friends and family are constantly telling me how jealous they are of my life in the Big Smoke. Saying how they wish they could do all these amazing things I'm doing and what an ...
