Ibiza Countdown: 30 Days! Progress Report...

So it's 30 days until the big popping of my Ibiza cherry and I still have an abnormally long list of things to achieve before I go!

I've been working out A LOT since I booked the holiday about 2 months ago and have started to see the first signs of results! YAY! My stomach is flatter and actually toning and even my arms are looking leaner, too! This is all thanks to YouTube and the huge abundance of workout vids available to do in your own home. This is my daily routine:

1) Tiffany Rothe's Hot Body Warm-Up Routine - CLICK HERE FOR VIDEO
2) Tiffany Rothe's Bikini Abs Workout - CLICK HERE FOR VIDEO
3) Daily Butt Workout (Free App for iPhones and iPads) - CLICK HERE TO FIND
4) 3 Minute Bun & Thigh Wave Workout - CLICK HERE TO FIND
5) 50 Prisoner Squats (or 15 more minutes on Bun & Thigh Wave) - CLICK TO SEE
6) 1 Minute Plank - CLICK TO SEE

And that's it! That's my daily workout routine - it takes no more than half an hour/ 40 minutes and I also walk the dog twice a day for about 20 minutes! I have so much more energy it's all very lovely! :)

I had my first McDonald's this weekend, too! Chicken Selects meal - and I made it a large as I was feeling rather deprived. I'm on a diet but if I ever feel like I'm craving something like crazy I just go ahead and eat it - 95% of the time I'm really enjoying my healthy eating!

My favourite meals include blueberries and natural yoghurt with either mango coulis or honey for breakfast, Ainsley Harriott cup soups for lunch (with 2 or 3 crackers) and anything homemade by my Mum for dinner! Key healthy snacks that I've discovered are the Strawberry Nougat bars by Shapers which you can get from Boots or bags of Snack-a-Jacks - especially in the Caramel flavour!

Other than the diet and workout situation I've also been finding loads of amazing new clothes for holiday! Scouring the net in lust I've found eBay to be a godsend for affordable bits!
I picked up this Batman dungaree dress for £9 (HighStreetLook2013), this bandeau crop top for £3 (diamondclothing786) and this purple skirt for £5 (girlsattractions)!

 
Another wonderful fashion find I came across last night was The Holiday Boutique! Having been obsessed with Tulisa and her birthday visit to Ibiza last week I was T H R I L L E D to find the actual shop in which her holiday wardrobe had come from...and you will not believe the bargain prices!
 
Lady Lux - Click HERE to buy
 
Day Glo Pink Monokini - CLICK TO BUY
 
Lady Lux Love Game - Click to Buy
 
All that's left to do is the tan, the mani, the pedi, the shoes, the make-up...etc, etc!

Ibiza 2013 - Beauty, Health & Fitness Countdown!

It's official! Ibiza 2013 is booked and the to-do list is in full swing...
 
It's time I got started with STAGE 1:
Early Preparation
 
 
1) The Bun & Thigh Wave Machine is set up in my living room with the accompanying DVD ready to be learnt off-by-heart!
I figured any product with THIS lady on the front which also promises results in just two weeks is definitely worth a try before forking out £50+ a month on the gym! At only £80 from Argos this is a long-term STEAL!
 
 
2) Getting into shape and getting the perf Ibiza body will take more than a few minutes on the Bun and Thigh Wave! I know this! So I'm also participating in the almost impossible 30-Day Squat Challenge AND investing in the ECI Cellulite Treatment! It's not cheating if Kim K gets away with it!! All this as well as the sit-up challenge, skipping rope and mad power walks with the pooch should see me tone up in no time!
 
 
 
3) Eating right is the most important part of the Ibiza countdown challenge! I'm aiming to eat between 1200 and 1500 calories per day - obviously a little more if I'm working out hard. That would be cutting up to 600 calories a day - as well as cutting fatty, unwanted meals like McDonalds and Burger King! It's salad and soup from this moment onwards!
 
4) So I'm getting my diet, cellulite and flab sorted. What about health and beauty?! Well, let's start with my skin:
I hereby solemnly swear that I will cleanse, tone and moisturise every night after removing every scarp of make-up from my face!
Amen...
 
Do any of you fellow bloggers know any pimple remedies??!! I'd really love to start trying out some new lotions and potions to try and clear this blotchy skin of mine!?
 
5) And finally...
Ibiza fashion!
 
WATCH THIS SPACE...I'm pretty sure that the second the 'Project Ibiza' Collection lands at Missguided I will be posting a MASSIVE shopping haul and showing off my new summer wardrobe staples!
 
 
 
Where are you going this summer?!
What are your STAGE 1 plans?!
