My take on the "Juice Cleanse"


I did my first Juice cleanse late October, I used a local company in Liverpool @juicyliciousmee on twitter. The 3 day detox cost me £60, they had an offer on free delivery that week (normal £10 delivery charge) Every night for 3 nights the lovely woman who runs it would drop off 4 bottles of juice. 

Every morning you would begin with a hot water with a slice of lemon, the benefits of this alone are incredible!

The 9am and 12pm Juice - Avo-licious.
This juice was delicious, filled with avocados, cucumber, pineapple, apples, lime and spinach. It tasted "healthy"

The 3pm Juice - Beeti-licious
This juice containing Beetroot, carrots, apples, parsnips and lemon was the hardest to swallow; I'm not a fan of parsnips but after the initial shock of day one I enjoyed it on day two and day three.

The 6pm Juice - Berry-licious
Containing apples, strawberries, raspberries, goji berries and natural fat free yogurt, you can tell this tasted amazing and fruity!

Overall, I found myself really enjoying this detox the woman was always at the end of a text or tweet for support.

The benefits I found from it: my energy levels have never been higher, my eyes were WHITE, skin was glowing and on a weight loss note I lost 6lbs!! Didn't even put it back on when I started eating normally again either, Christmas indulgence put it back on!

I would highly recommend Juice Cleanses and definitely @juicyliciousmee if you're local to the Liverpool area

Second time around.

Well, this is officially my second attempt at a blog. I had a previous one that I haven't used since July..last year! The main aspect of that blog was fasting (5:2 diet, 24 hour fasts) and that isn't were my head is right now, so this is going to be a mash up of everything I do Fitness, food and beauty related.

About me:
I'm Steph, 22. I live in Liverpool with my almost 4 year old Son and I'm currently studying AAT to become an Accountant, which is the hardest thing I've done so far but you get what you work hard for right?!
I love the whole world of Health and Fitness, I've tried pretty much everything out there exercise and diet wise some to great success and most making me utterly miserable. So everything I have done in the past and do in the future will get a review on this blog.
On the subject of beauty I'm an avid fan of beauty blogs and beauty YouTubers, which makes me splurge on occasion on many makeup items, skincare etc. So naturally anything I want to review will also have a place on this blog.

In short I could post about anything, from the newest beauty craze to the newest diet to a great bar I've been to.
