My Saffiano Set Up for Diet & Weight Loss - Filofax Friday - Week 9

A fortnight ago I shared with you my Saffiano unboxing and first impressions. Now that I have had time to play and get comfortable and used to her, I thought I would give you a little tour.

I am using her as a tool to aid me in my health eating and weight loss journey and nothing else. Weight has always been a tremendous struggle for me, one that my hormones also don't help me with but that is a whole other story for another time, I don't want to bore you just yet! I really feel like I am ready to knuckle down and get it under control again before it starts to control me!

I am kind of practicing what I preached back in week 4 and am using something pretty and visually stimulating to keep me on track and to help me to get on that track (haven't I said this before in week 3? I fear I am repeating myself). You know what, it is working! So far I have stuck to it every single day since I have started using it and it is really helping me take control and to understand a bit more about what I am eating, when and why.

In this Filofax I have incorporated a very small amount of daily journalling in which I will show you in the video below. I do this every morning for the previous day and it helps me to identify the times when I do reach for that piece of cake and what I can do to stop that. If like me you are struggling, I do urge you to give that a try it is really helping me and it might help you too. What have you got to loose other than a couple of extra pounds that you didn't want anyway right?

 So I hope you enjoyed a nosey at my Filofax and how I am using it. If you have a set up tour I would love to see yours. I love to see how other people use their planners, I am nosey like that!

In the video I mentioned a collaboration with the lovely Maria from Filolove to bring you a giveaway so here are all the details for that...

There are four prizes up for grabs and there will be two winners (two prizes each person). The two winners will be able to choose their choice of planner inserts to print at home from my etsy shop and also a charm of their choice from Maria's shop.

You then need to come back and leave a comment on the video letting us know if you were to win which charm you would like. This way if you do win, we will already know which charm you would like.
