I am a huge advocate of being happy in the moment. Countless times I have posted, both on here and my social media about being a glass half full girl. A, say yes now and figure it out as you go, type person! I am also a big believer in self love and doing what you can to make yourself feel better whenever possible.
I was given the opportunity to work with Holland & Barrett on a new weight management food supplement they are launching – Slimbiome. Slimbiome is not about weight lost, but confidence gained, I am using it as part of a healthy lifestyle rather than a quick fix weight loss tool. It is a patented blend of glucomannan, inulin and chromium, which provides a three pronged approach to holistic weight management.
The sachets are pineapple flavoured and dissolved in water, taken 3 times a day I was pleasantly surprised with the flavour. They are easy to dissolve and have a tropical taste which makes them easy to take just 30 minutes before each meal.
Since starting the sachets on boxing day I am feeling very positive about my journey with Slimbiome. I am actually enjoying taking them as they are pleasant to drink, it really isn’t hard or a chore so something I don’t mind doing. My mindset is one of keeping on track and the routine of 3 a day is keeping me positive too. My energy levels are better than normal and that is down to trying to be more active too.
I am following a healthy eating plan, by no means cutting out everything as that just isn’t practical or what I want to be about. If I cut out everything I tend to have binges where I drop everything and revert to old eating patterns. This way I feel I can have a little of what I want when I want it. This really is about a change of life for me and not just a quick fix.
My sleeping pattern is getting better too, more solid hours of sleep rather than interrupted nights where I am waking for no reason. The night time treats have stopped too which I hadn’t even noticed until a couple of nights ago. This shows me that something is working in regards to helping ease hunger and bad habits!
A little tracker for myself:
Measurements 43.5, 36, 47.5
Weight 13st 6lb
Overall so far I am impressed with how things are going and my mind set is positive that I can change my lifestyle for the better.
I am working with Holland & Barrett on a paid trial of Slimbiome, all views and opinions are my own and genuine.
