With the wedding less than a month away I thought I would share What I Eat In A Week in the run up to the big day as part of my Pre-Wedding Health Kick! I have been following a 1200 calorie food plan since February to help me feel healthier and make sure I feel confident and happy in my body for the big day. I aim for an average of 1200 calories a day but I do have days where I don't feel like that is enough so I go over - and I don't give myself a hard time over it - it's just an aim but it has definitely made me feel different and feel better in my skin at such an important time. I AM NOT A DIETICIAN - Please don't take this video as dietary advice. I am simply sharing what I have been doing and what has worked for me, but please seek appropriate advice if required. - I will now be posting new videos EVERY THURSDAY (post-vlogmas!) so please do subscribe so you don't miss any future videos - I've got loads of really exciting content planned! - Camera and Editing: Filmed on: Canon G7X Mark ii: https://amzn.to/35wcN6A Mini handheld tripod: https://amzn.to/35v9QmX Edited with iMovie Sound Effects and Commission-Free music from Epidemic Sound - Get a 1 month free trial here: https://www.epidemicsound.com/referral/uicrji/ - Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/rosieladkin Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/rosieladkin Blog: http://www.agirlonajourney.com - A bit about me: I am 30 years old and live with my wonderful fiancé who I will be marrying in June 2021. I qualified as a Midwife in September 2019 and have been working as a fully qualified Midwife at a UK hospital since October 2019. I run a blog over at http://www.agirlonajourney.com, in which I have documented my training to be a midwife as well as all things lifestyle, food and wedding. I continue to post regularly on there so please do check it out! - If you have any questions, please do send them over via my blog at http://www.agirlonajourney.com - *All views are my own* *Links included in the video or description may include affiliate links*

NEW BUILD HOUSE UPDATE & A CHILLED WEEKEND VLOG | 6 Months in our New Build Home!

Well, I've gotta say, I never imagined planning a wedding in a pandemic, but covid-19 has meant that our wedding is limited by Step 3 restrictions and we are going to be limited to 30 people. In this vlog, I'm going to share my annual leave week - picking up my wedding dress & wedding shoes, talking about where we are at with the wedding and our plans at the moment, and generally sharing what it has been like the last couple of months, re-planning our wedding during covid and with restrictions - as well as a bit of general life and a few shots of our beautiful puppy too! I hope you enjoy seeing what I got up to!
