Toria gets some fancy Make-Up

Ok so it is Monday again. BOOOOHOOOO. The weekend come and goes so bloody quickly it makes me sick. Alas. Although I am excited for this time next week because I will be doing Monday then a half day then TWO WHOLE DAYS OFF. Then I come back on Friday and then I work another week and one day and its then CHRISTAMAS. Where I have a total of 7 days off would have been 8 but I was kind and offered to work NY eve so no one else had to do it. BLAH! Ahhh well it’s only one day then Tuesday I have off and then its only 3 days until the weekend again HURRAH!

Not tomorrow but the following Tuesday I will be seeing Mumford and sons. Eeep. I wam dead excited. I can’t wait; I love that band sooo damn much! Seriously! It has come around so SO insanely quickly too!

My new coat caused me some issues last week. I put my hand through the arm hole on Wednesday ready to go out for Lunch and all the lining inside had split. I was NOT impressed at all. I quickly had to borrow money to buy a new one as they were in the sale for £56 rather than the £70 I paid (yes this also pissed me off) So I ordered a new one, (last one in my size in stock) and it came Friday and I sent the broken one back on Saturday so I am hoping £70 will appear in my account by the end of the week. I hope so anyway! On the plus side I felt that the left arm was a little squiffy and was shorter than the right arm and now that isn’t an issue on the new coat. Still is making my left arm really hurt but hey ho  :(

I did however have a pretty lovely weekend. My granddad hasn’t been that well for a while and had a bad turn a week or so ago. So my Grandma hasn’t really been able to get out the house much and she needed a few bits from Croydon and I offered to take her in. She said we could look for some make up for me (as that is what she was getting) and she would treat me. I wasn’t sure about it but I tried Benefit and I LOVED IT! Then my Grandma was pretty much like we will take it all thanks. It came to £99 -£20ish for her makeup brush she wanted too! I nearly passed out. I felt awful taking that much money off my Grandmother but she insisted and I really really do love the make-up I picked.

So I got a foundation, foundation brush, Primer and a blusher. They smell sooo good too >.<

My face is a little scary in that photo but my skin looks really nice. My Grandma kept telling all the ladies at the counters that she was with her granddaughter and she seemed to really enjoy the day out. I really enjoyed it too :D

My eating healthy was going well until I stuffed my face last night with pizza D: I lost 2lbs last week and I was really excited. But I will start again today and carry on. Hopefully I won’t go crazy and order Dominos at 9pm at night. Although I now I have £10 credit on my account to get a free pizza as they fucked up my order. That will be hard to resist! 

Anyway it is nearly lunchtime now which is good as I am STARVING HUNGRY! And then I can start counting down the hours till home time which cannot come soon enough!

My new coat

Life seems to be going ok at the moment. Me and Matt have been really good :) I am really hoping maybe he can start to forgive me… perhaps?

I am on some MAGER healthy weight loss kick at the moment. I lost like 1.5stone in around a month back in January/February with plans to lose another 1-2stone by Laura’s wedding. Then all the bad stuff happened with Matt and I ended up eating complete shit and actually putting on around 7lbs.

I’ve been trying to do it again and I have on and off. I’m down to 212lbs ish and I want to get below 200lbs by the end of Christmas and I have a good motivation now. ….My new coat ahah.

Ok so the idea behind this coat was that I wanted THE PREFECT COAT this year. Being a student pretty much all my life has restricted me to buying sale items or Primark or ‘Cheap’ items and this year I wanted the perfect expensive coat that I know will last a few years rather than falling apart after a few months now I have quite a well-paying job,  and I found it, £70 and only available in plus size (which had sold out and would most likely of been too big) and Petite and being almost 5ft8” I am not petite (which is 5ft3” and below.) I may have been ok with a plus size 18, but I was pretty sure as I wear a 14-16 in most shops for coats it would have been too big. Then I found out the girl modelling the coat was 5ft6” and I decided to just give it ago and it came on Friday…. I was 100% sure it wouldn’t fit, but it did pretty much. It’s perfect all-round the body I wouldn’t want it any bigger, the issue is the arms and back, it is quite tight and my left arm seems tighter and actually gets really achy when I have it on… strange…. So it has now acted as a MASSIVE motivator to lose weight because if I can lose half a stone to a stone I think it would fit really nicely. I had dresses that used to cut into my arms and across my back that are now a bit big so hopefully if I try really hard, by Christmas it will fit a bit better J and by January it will be perfect! I hope anyway, it’s not way too tight, and I can move and rive ok in it, it’s just the achy arm that is a massive pain in the ass.!

It really is so pretty and perfect for my body shape and my skirts that I wear. I think it is quite classic so I could wear it again next year! I just hope so much if I lose some weight then it will fit perfectly!

Anyhoo, the weekend was over and done with way too quickly and I really need to sleep. The drive to work this morning was dangerous as I really couldn’t keep my eyes open on the motorway I was that tired. I don’t have much to do today which is a right pain in the ass…… I have a bit to do later and I will have quite a lot to do the rest of the week, but I hate slow days like this when there is nothing really to do D:

Well in about an hour it will be nearly lunchtime and then I can start my count down of the day to home where I will have my healthy BBQ chicken and zoo animals and peas for dinner. Yummy.
