I don’t think I’ve posted a photo of our finished living room wallpaper on my grid yet.

The living room has taken months to come together and we are *this* close to it being how we want it.

We had no plans when we moved in, and over the months we have found decor items that we just LOVE and somehow it has all come together!

Items are tagged!

AD

We’ve paid off £15,000 of credit card debt, got married and purchased our first home together. The next thing on our list is to get Pension Confident.

Thinking about pensions and retirement can cause lots of stress and anxiety, so I was on a mission to get Pension Confident.

The first step was to decide how much money I want for retirement. I thought it would be really difficult, but the @pensionbee pension calculator made it really easy.

I didn’t want to deal with the old-style pension providers, after all, it is 2020 and I want a pension that I can access easily, make bigger contributions to when business is going well and have the flexibility that I need as a small business owner.

I signed up to @pensionbee where I have an app I can use to keep track of my pension, accessing it 24/7. I love seeing my pension grow!

As always with investments, your capital is at risk. The value of your investment can go down as well as up, and you may get back less than you invest. This information should not be regarded as financial advice.

Wait what, how is it Friday again? This week has passed by in a blur!

I had some blood test done on Monday to check my vitamin levels and blood sugar levels after WLS. Something is up because I’ve been called in for an appointment next week 😱 I also had my second B12 injection which was VERY much needed 😴😴😴

Anyway here is another Face to Face Friday. Almost 6 months out at this point 🙌🏻

On Friday night we got the chance to get dressed up and go and have a very special date night in a couple’s pod.

I wore a new Apricot size 16 (🤯🤯🤯) dress that when I saw it hanging up in the store I knew would make a wonderful date night dress. Tony also wore a shirt 😱

The Barn at Terrington St Johns have built these pods to help with social distancing whilst eating out. Sounds super expensive right? Nope, you just need a booking and there’s a £25 min spend per person (hence me ordering a normal main course instead of something smaller).

At the moment the pod is yours all night 😍 in the couple’s pod there’s a sofa and blankets too.

It was incredible and I’m so grateful to my beautiful friend @hayleyellis2018 for passing on the reservation that she was too poorly to make. This place has been featured on OK magazine’s FB page so it’s booked up!

Hello! If you’re new here then I think it is ti

Hello!

If you’re new here then I think it is time for an introduction!

I’m Emma and I live in Norfolk with my husband and our 3 cats.

I’m a full time blogger/entrepreneur who has won the UK’s best money making blog for 3 years in a row - so I know a bit about side hustles. I’ve done them all from adult chat lines to reselling on eBay.

I love to help others find real ways to make money - to pay off debt, survive maternity pay, pay for a holiday or replace their full time job. Whatever the reason there are plenty of legit ways to make extra money!

Over the years we have paid off £15,000 of credit card debt, paid for our wedding, had a few Disney holidays along the way and bought our first house together.

Earlier this year I had weight loss surgery, a gastric bypass, and I share a lot of my highs and lows here.

I’m very active on my Instagram stories where I share freebies, money making opportunities, food pics, outfit pics and most importantly, cats!

Whether you are new to my account or not, let me know a random fact about you. Here’s mine: I don’t have a toenail on my left big toe 🦶🏻

For lunch today I made us some halloumi burgers - mine was in lettuce instead of a bread roll.

This was so good! I used up some sorry looking salad in the fridge to knock this up, and the tip to crinkle cut the halloumi (from @littlepenniestomightypounds) is a game changer!

What did you have for lunch today?

Happy Friday everyone! That means time for a face

Happy Friday everyone! That means time for a face to face Friday.

These past couple of weeks I have loved being let loose into clothing shops again, and being able to pick up some size 16s from the rack and them fitting. I also bought a size 14 dress in the sale for autumn and it fits 😭😭😭

I also don’t shy away from mirrors. I didn’t realise I did this until I stopped doing this. If we walk past a mirror somewhere then I stop to look at myself and smile instead of trying to avoid looking at myself.

There are some down times though. Last night I was sick again (hasn’t happened for a few weeks 🤮), my skin is really dry and my hair is still falling out, although it has slowed down.

Still absolutely no regrets!
