Talk about eating frequently or what?!!! My metabolism must be running pretty high at the moment, which is great! I'm very happy with the third day of my detox! Once again I have proven myself that if you want something badly, you will succeed! Maan there have been so many temptations, such as a big yummy chocolaty-smelling cake at work and when one of my co-workers had sausage I was craving it so bad lol!! But I won't fail!! I'm having naughty thoughts (lool that sounds so groooss lmao) about friday though, which I have decided to be kind of a lil cheat day. Chinese cuisine here we comee lol. Until then, I'll be super strict with what I'm eating though, since I want to get as much as possible out of this detox!

Weeell, I'm sitting here sweaty as idk what (I just finished today's workout) so I will need to go and take a shower and have my bedtime detox tea before it's time to say goodnight and get some rest. Are you interested in the detox tea I'm drinking? Check it out here: Bootea.co.uk !

Lunch.

Snack 2: Quark with raspberries, two crispbreads topped with sliced banana

I also had a snapple since me and a couple of friends went on a spontaneous visit at the movies.

Aaand just to remind you, the bedtime tea is only to be consumed every other night, that's why I didn't drink it this day.

+ daytime detox tea a few hours later
Lunch: Chicken, bell pepper, 1 avocado. Water to drink.
Snack: 2 nectarines
Post workout: Quark with raspberries
Dinner: Salmon, veggies and a little potato gratin

Okay, so this is how I'll let you know what I've eaten throughout the days during my detox. I'm pleased with my first day, except my breakfast usually is oatmeal or quark lol but I didn't have time to prepare something like that since I was at my bf's house and I was in a hurry for the train. The little potato gratin I had at dinner isn't that big of a deal, however I won't eat more of those things during this 14 day cleanse.

Questions? :-)

It's Time!!!

Hey guys! I just got back home from my boyfriend and had my first cup (ehh okay glass, I had it in a glass lol) of Bootea detox tea! As I've promised I'll keep you updated on my progress and thoughts here on the blog! I'll try to list what I eat throughout each day as well as mention whenever I work out, so that you can have the clearest understanding possible of what was required for ME reach the result I'll eventually (and hopefully) get.

So, first of all I'll answer a few common questions about the tea and the detox.

What does the tea do? (The following list is taken from bootea.co.uk)

The natural ingredients found in Bootea can:

•    Increase your metabolism

•    Burn calories and convert food to energy

•    Burn fat & counteract fat storage

•    Regulate blood sugar levels

•    Assist in the digestion of food

•    Suppress appetite

•    Improve skin health

•    Improve quality of sleep 

•    Cleanse & detoxify

•    Allow you to reach your health/weightloss goals

What does the tea taste like? So far I've only tried the daytime tea, and it tastes exactly like green tea. And since I love green tea I'm very pleased but if you don't, you can always free feel to add lemon, natural sweetener or natural honey.

How much does it cost? A 14 day detox is £14,99. Delivery within the UK is free, shipping to countries in Europe is £3 and worldwide is £5. It worked very well to recieve my package, it was delivered as regular post at me house! If I remember right it took about 4 working days to get it.

How often do I have to drink it? You'll recieve 14 daytime teabags which you drink in the morning for 14 days in row, and 7 teabags of nightime cleanse which you drink every other night during the detox.

Stay tuned!! :D

Getting Ready For Bootea DETOX

Hello everyone! I'm terribly sorry for my absence. While I've been "gone", I hope you've kept yourself updated on my instagram where I'm active aaallll the time. Unfortunately, I don't have time to spend as much energy on here. However, now when I'm waiting for my 14 day detox tea from BOOTEA to get its way through the UK to my mail box, I got inspiration to get back to blogging.

So, in just a few days my detox tea will arrive, and I'm so excited! I've always wanted to try a teatox and see how my body would react to it.

I just finished reading the eating plan on bootea.co.uk, which is suggested to follow. However, after doing some research and using my own little brain, I've decided to just stick to my clean diet, eat lots of veggies, fruits and other natural foods. Plus avoid red meats and stick to chicken, salmon, cod, mackerel, tuna etc. I still have thoughts on cutting out diary though....what do you guys think? Can I live without my quark or milk to my oats in the morning? Gahh there's so many theories about what is considered clean, what you should eat to prevent bloat, what you should eat to prevent this and that and this gaaahh haha. Can I have the key??? Lol.

My plan is to keep you updated on what I eat every day during the detox, and share my before/after pictures here on the blog and on my instagram account afterwards. What do you guys think about that?

SUMMER BREAK!

Me a couple of days ago (looooove my new nikes)

Hey guys! I suppose most of you have gone on summer break by now? I finished school yesterday and  I'm so happy!!! I really needed a break, and this one will last for a while.. wooaa! Thank God! I'll spend my summer hanging out with friends, working out, working and going on festivals. Last but not least I'm leaving for Bosnia with one of my bff's in just 17 days, where I'll stay for a week and after that we'll spend another week in Croatia. Yayyy! I really can't wait! This is also a really good motivation for me to stay on track when it comes to diet and exercise. I've been so lazy lately due to a hip injury, but I'm good now and ready to get back on track!! I hope you all are doing well. Love ya, xx

New Training Apparell

Remember when I blogged about these nike runners? Well, I decided not to buy them. Instead, I found two other pair of runners that I actually ordered along with a cute water bottle last night. I can't wait to receive them! 

Nike Wmns Free Run+ 2 Ext , Reebok Yourflex Run 3.0 , Nike Big Mouth Water Bottle

Yesterday I went to H&M to buy a new pair of gray training tights as well:

Buying new apparel for working out is a great way to either reward yourself, or simply motivate yourself to work out. I mean, it's more fun to sweat when you do it in a cute pair of runners or a comfy top! Don't you agree? ;-)

Warm Summer Day

Hi beauties! Today is a really warm day here in Sweden, so I decided to make something cold and refreshing. I grabbed a glass bottle and squeezed one lemon into it,  had some funlight stevia (a no-calorie concentrated drink sweetened with stevia), ice cold water and then I added in some sliced cucumbers and lemons. Yuummm! So refreshing and perfect for any warm summer day.

Two Of My Lovely Readers

 Two of my lovely readers have shared their progress pictures with me, and I've asked them if I could post it on my blog. The answer was a definite yes from both of them, so here you go. Prepare for major inspiration!!!

"I sent you this pic to let people know that anything is possible! Never ever let people get to you matter what! You got that strength and power inside of you, you just have to learn how to let that strength out, and always remember all you have to do is believe in yourself."

"Hi. This is my weightloss from november to may. I follow you on instagram anf with your inspiration to workout, I've learned that weight really is just a number and that you can see a difference even if its only ten number difference on the scale. Thank you! :-) "

I'm so impressed. I'm so overwhelmed. I'm so PROUD. That's basically what I have to say. The fact that I've helped people through this is an amazing feeling. I LOVE WHAT I DO.  If you want to share your progress or just talk or whatever really haha I love to talk, kik me (matilda139) e-mail me (mjohansson170@gmail.com) or you can go ask me anything at ask.fm/healthyfoodgram. LOVE, Matilda <3

Nike Love

I'm thinking about ordering these........ Been browsing around for months in order to find a new pair of runners since mine has HOLES in them haha. I work out too much. That was a lie. Good night xx

Bikinis!

I got myself two new bikinis for the summer last weekend when I visited my friend in Helsingborg. I usually don't easily find bikinis that I like, but this time I tried out a whole bunch bikinis and ended up buying two of them. So happy! Both of them are from a Swedish store called Lindex :) xoxo

Motivating Backgrounds For Your Phone.

A few weeks ago I asked you guys if you wanted me to create collages for you to use as backgrounds in your phones and there was a bunch who answered YES so here it is! If requested I'd be glad to create some more but those four are what's available right now.. Hope you like them! :-)
