Not Another Skinny Tea Review

So let me start off by saying I am very skeptical of 'skinny' teas and 'teatox' and all that shite. I'm a firm believer in losing weight by eating right and exercising. And no cup of tea is going to change that.

But I had a pack of Miss Fit Skinny Tea at home and two weeks ago I said 'sure feck it, I'll give it a go'. If it doesn't work - no biggie, at least I've tried it.


So let's get straight into it, you want to know if I lost weight. And the short answer is yes, I did and I'm delighted.

Long answer has a bit more to it! So after Christmas 2016 I was my heaviest I have ever been and to be honest I was quite horrified with myself. So since then I've eaten quite well (Monday - Friday anyway) and have gone to the gym about three times a week. That still is working out really well for me and I've lost about 5kg since January. But for the past few weeks my weight has plateaued and that's when I said I'd try the tea. So on the first day of taking the Miss Fit Skinny Tea I weighed 64.5kg and on the last day I weighed 62.8kg. Not a major weight loss, but for me getting past 64kg was like breaking through a wall.

*I only did it for 12 days because my last two days of the tea were yesterday and today, and today I'm deathly hungover after yesterday's antics so the tea can feck off!


Now I'm no fool, that weight will quickly go back on once I stop drinking the tea. We all know these kinda teas make you lose weight by basically 'clearing you out' and we've all heard the horror stories to go with it. But I was completely fine, 'regular' you could say. There was no near misses or mad dashes to the bathroom, but I do pride myself on my strong stomach! And to be honest, the tea was also delicious, I really enjoyed drinking it.

And finally would I recommend the tea.....look I lost a bit of weight before my holidays and I've no shame in saying that I do feel better about myself. I won't stick with it, mainly because of the price of it, but I would use it again before a holiday or event. Basically it's a quick fix.

These things work out differently for different people but I just wanted to give you my feedback on it :) And here's a little before and after picture for reference...

My Black Friday Top Picks

Image
In a perfect world I'd have all the money and I'd be able to buy all the things (and there'd be no such thing as calories). Unfortunately that's not the case, but if it was this is what I'd be spending my money on, this Black Friday. Body Blur 50% off This fake tan, which gives the illusion of flawless skin, is loved by Pippa O'Connor and Waxperts Ellen and I just have to have it!!!  As fake tans go it's pretty pricey but today you can get it for half price on Simply Foxy Missguided 50% off I'll be honest I'm not a huge fan of Missguided. But I've had my eye on these shoes for the longest time! The straps and studs make them quite trendy, very Valentino-esque, while the nude colour makes them wearable all year round. Oasis Dress 20% off (code HAPPY20) I saw this dress on a mannequin in Oasis and I swear to God, angels were singing down onto it as I stared. It is DIVINE!! It's perfect Christmas party dress that you can wear over and over aga

Make Up by Polish Hand & Foot Spa

Image
As you may have seen from my millions of pictures on Facebook & Instagram , I got my make up done! This is so exciting for me because it's something I never do! If I'm going to a salon it's usually for nails or a blow dry, I just never think to get my make up done! And why wouldn't I? I do my own make up decent enough.....but let's be honest it's never anything special. So I was only delighted when I was given the opportunity to have someone else do it for me! I was invited to Polish Hand & Foot Spa to get my make up done yesterday evening, and it was such a lovely treat!! First of all Polish Spa on Fitzwilliam Street, Dublin is a very chic salon run by Leanne and Emma. For me (and probably most other people) the interior of a salon really adds to the experience and Polish Spa did not disappoint. It was a really clean and fresh salon with pretty blue wallpaper and lovely white and grey antique furniture. Leanne Nugent the owner of Polish Spa and aka F
