Graze Box.

 
Towards the end of last year I subscribed to Graze - a company that sends you 4 carefully selected healthy alternative snacks in a box delivered straight to your door. Considering that one of my New Year's resolutions  (a link to 'My New Years Resolutions' will be below)was to start being healthier, I thought I'd share with you what the Graze box is also about and what I like about it.
 
I am subscribed to the 'Nibble Box' where you can choose from the maximum variety of snacks and it really gives you a chance to try out everything. I chose this one because I didn't have a clue what to pick at first as there are loads of different ones to pick from, e.g. chocolate box (balancing chocolate with wholesome snacks), Sugar count box (every snack is 10% under your RDA of sugar- so that it's easy to keep track of) and the breakfast box...well I think you'll be able to guess what's in that one :)
 
Graze is brilliant at being in control of when you want your boxes, for example my subscription is for every 2 weeks. However, sometimes I forget about them and I'm then swimming in Graze boxes for a week. When this happens I simply 'book a holiday'. No, unfortunately this doesn't mean that I pack my suitcase and travel to the Bahamas while my cat feasts on healthy snacks for a week. It means that I can tell Graze that I don't want my box being delivered for a couple of weeks (this is also great if you are actually going on holiday).
 
Graze's snacks are delicious. Being a real desert fiend I particularly like the flapjacks, Graze's heavenly brownie and the snacks that contain chocolate :) However, I have also been loving the 'Super Berries',  'Jalapeno Hot Chips' and 'Brilliant Banana Bread with Dates and Hazelnuts'. Mmm...
 
Also Graze always seem to be doing brilliant offers. Giving you vouchers and offers to try your first box for free is what they do. S keep an eye out in magazines and on television. I first tried my Graze box with a voucher out of a magazine.
 
Lastly, the box that your yummy snacks come in is so cute and 'natural' looking (idk) you can't help but give in to being healthy. Give Graze ago-trust me it isn't all seeds and nuts. There is a really wide variety of tasty things on offer. There's definitely something for everyone.

I love Graze because of it's wide variety and consistency of tasting fabulous. It also allows you to still snack throughout the day but with delicious alternatives that keep hunger at bay. And with you being able to pay through direct debit, it makes it very easy and consistent- no messing about with credit cards every 2 weeks.

New Years Resolutions.


New Years Resolutions:
 
-Take more photos. I've just had a bridge camera for My Birthday (Nikon Coolpix L830) and I already love and study Photography as a GCSE and this year I want to document everything. From random long walks to holiday adventures. Your coming everywhere with me this year.
 
-Write more posts on here about my experiences and opinions. I think this would be a good opportunity for you guys to actually get to know me. So expect me to be more opinionated this year. Lets get talking about those big topics and controversial issues.
 
-To eat healthier. Isn't this one of everybody's resolutions every year? Seriously, though I am going to give it a good go at eating healthier and food types in the right proportions.
 
-To drink more water. This one kind of relates to the last one but it's just as important. Drinking more water can help your skin flush out impurities leaving it clear, clean and glowing, whilst also replenishing your energy so you can cope better with your busy schedule.
 
-To start jogging. I began jogging last year a bit whilst also walking. This year I want to become a lot more fitter and be able to go on jogs most nights.
 
-To be more positive. One of my best friends is always so positive and optimistic that has inspired me to try and be a bit more like her. Not everyone hates you. In fact I bet it's a very very small minority. 2015 is the year when I have to start being more positive. This year I want to put myself in situations where I don't feel comfortable. Stepping out of your comfort zone is good sometimes you know.    :)
 
I hope this has inspired you to think about what you want to accomplish in 2015.
