Savvy 'n' Sassy

Hey! Pic borrowed but can't find owner! Sorry I have been a little quiet of late. I've had no energy! Seriously! Body has been exhausted and brain full of fog and this time I cant blame the menopause! I t's all my own fault to be honest . Before I tell you my Top 5 YT Fitness Vloggers, there needs to be a little context! In my infinite wisdom I decided to do a crash diet. Now before you gasp and clasp your pearls there's a good reason! I watched a documentary on TV about how crash diets had modernised and were a great way to kickstart weight loss and get super healthy, super quick. Tests showed that people rid themselves of type 2 diabetes etc in just a couple of weeks. Now I don't have any of those issues thankfully, but, I am Mrs Impatient, so I thought it would be a great idea.....you know, safely kickstart some weight loss and get motivated!

Mind the Gap!  Savvy answers for Sassy women to bust the pay gap justification myths! So, there has been a real hullabaloo about the BBC and their curious way of paying women far less than men.

Millions of us are baring our skin for the first time in months but not everyone is doing it safely. It is so easy to burn and that's not good! The sun however can have a positive effect on us human beings. A little sunshine is very beneficial. It is a source of the much discussed Vitamin D which is in fact a pre-hormone that can reduce the risk of certain cancers, absorb calcium, protect bones, help prevent type 2 diabetes by 80% and help prevent multiple sclerosis.
