Sorting myself out: Cleansing the inside and out!

Hi guys~

Just wanted to write a quick post to remind myself that I need to seriously start taking care of myself before I go overseas! I plan to start consistently exercising, eating more fruits and veggies and cleansing my skin more to get rid of the breakouts and blemishes. Adapting to a new consistent lifestyle is never easy, but none of these changes are particularly drastic anyway, I think.

My To - Do List:

- Eat a box of tomatoes mixed with cucumbers and lettuce every weekday (from my lunch hall at uni)
- Exercise everyday if I can, for one hour. If not, I want to exercise at least three times a week.
- Start cleansing my face everyday consistently with the OCM method and moisturising consistently as well.

Hopefully by the time I leave for the USA I can be healthier on the inside and out, and hopefully a bit fitter too! I know being in the USA for a while will be great fun and it actually contributes towards my degree, so it's win win really. Gotta try to stay healthy and exercise though! Hopefully my new room mate won't find my hips thrusting really weird lol. Heck, I hope they join in.

Easy salad dressing - lemon juice, olive oil, salt and pepper!

I'm currently in a catered hall at the moment, so the healthy food I can get is mainly reduced to salad. Tomatoes, cucumber, and lettuce. Sometimes one of two the options run out, so I only end up eating one of the three. Recently I've been taking a tupperware box and filling the salad into that, then taking back to my room where I can eat it in my own time. It's been a little bland lately, so I use this super easy dressing to make things more interesting.

 - Olive oil (extra virgin if you can)
- Lemon juice
- Salt
- Pepper

It's up to use how much you use of each, but generally I use more olive oil than lemon juice, then I put in the salt and pepper and whisk it all together with a fork then pour it onto the salad.

Happy eating!
