As the sun decided to come out for another Spring day in Brighton, I decided to go for a picnic at the park near where I live - the picturesque St Ann's Well Gardens.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To reflect the warm, sunny feeling, and because I've been looking for any excuse to wear it, I decided to wear my new <a href="http://joyrich.com/usa/" target="_blank">Joyrich</a> "<a href="http://www.asos.com/pgeproduct.aspx?iid=2483025" target="_blank">Elegant Affair</a>" Dress (from <a href="http://www.asos.com/" target="_blank">ASOS</a>).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
However, though the sun was out, I must say I was absolutely freezing!!</div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
For the past five years years I have had long blonde hair, however
towards the end of last year something strange came over me, and I decided to follow the trend and go for the “balayage/dip dye" look. I had the top half of my hair dyed brown, and the bottom half left blonde.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
A good look, you would think. But no. It wasn’t
good. For 3 months I looked like I had horrific roots growing out - as if I had a brown fringe slapped on top of a head of blonde hair.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
So last week I finally made the decision to go back to blonde, and, to have
all my lovely long hair chopped off. And, thanks to Kirsty from <a href="http://www.electric-hair.com/salons.aspx?ID=1" target="_blank">Electric Hair Salon</a>, Brighton, who is Electric's Art Director and a L'Oréal Colour Expert, my hair has been saved!</div>

With this new hair, and after all this bleaching, a new hair routine is also needed. Kirsty advised me that, for my bleached blonde hair, I need to use products that will repair my hair from the inside. And so I came across this Limited Edition "<a href="http://www.hqhair.com/kerastase-elixir-ultime-125ml-jade-jagger-limited-edition/10656090.html" target="_blank">Elixir Ultime</a>" by Jade Jagger for Kérastase at <a href="http://www.hqhair.com/health-beauty/brands/kerastase.list" target="_blank">hqhair.com</a> (currently offering 15% off Kérastase products!).</div>

The elixir contains four different oils: Moroccan Argan, Pracaxi, Maize and Camellia. It can be used before shampooing, before blow drying or even afterwards (so on wet, damp or dry hair).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Having previously tried the L'Oreal Elvive "Extraordinary Oil" serum for coloured hair, which left my hair greasy and weighed down, I had my reservations about the Kérastase Elixir. However, much to my surprise, it was a completely different story.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
My hair (pictured above) has been left feeling sleek and shiny, not at all weighed down, and feels like there has been no damage at all from bleaching. The trick, I find, is to apply a tiny, peanut sized amount to the palm of your hands, rub your hands together, and then smooth through the ends of your dried hair. Or to apply a small amount to wet hair before blow drying (also works as a great de-tangler!) The Elixir Ultime is my ultimate colour saviour! Thank you Kirsty, thank you Kérastase, and thank you Jade Jagger.</div>

Over Christmas, it is a usual consequence of our indulgent festivities that we put on a few pounds. And though throughout the year I follow rigorously my low carb diet plan - at Christmas I am no different to the rest of us.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
During Winter, my super tight denim "skinny shorts" go into hibernation, however now as the sun is starting to come out and the Christmas weight has been lost (thanks to some hardcore low carbing and Bikram yoga), it is time to resurrect the shorts.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In celebration of the beautiful weather, I took to Brighton seafront to take some photos of my new blouse from <a href="http://www.dahlia.com/">Dahlia</a> - teamed perfectly with my denim shorts. I adore the darling oriental baroque print, and the chiffon-like fabric makes the blouse feel so luxurious to wear.</div>

It's nearing the end of January, and what a wonderful beginning to 2013 it's been. And with the end of January comes the beginning of February - and, Valentine's Day.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So for us low-carbers, dieters, diabetics, and general healthy eaters, to help us avoid all the chocolatey temptations that may be in store for us, I have written us a recipe for some deliciously tempting (but not naughty) heart shaped Chocolate Tarts.</div>
<b><br /></b>
<span style="color: purple;"><b><u>Ingredients:</u></b></span><br />
<span style="color: purple;"><b><u>Base:</u></b></span><br />
130g butter<br />
220g ground almonds*<br />
6 tbsp. Splenda*<br />
2 eggs<br />
pinch of salt<br />
<br />
<span style="color: purple;"><b><u>Chocolate filling:</u></b></span><br />
3x 85g bars (255g total) Cavalier dark chocolate*<br />
255ml double cream<br />
tbsp. Splenda*<br />
tbsp. butter<br />
2 drops vanilla extract<br />
<br />
*ingredients can be bought <a href="http://www.jillybakes.co.uk/" target="_blank">here</a><br />
<br />
First, set the oven to 180<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="en-GB" style="line-height: 119%;">°C.</span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-size: x-small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><span lang="en-GB" style="line-height: 119%;"></span></span></span><br />
For the base, in a bowl, mix the ground almonds, butter, splenda and salt to make a breadcrumb-like mixture. Then mix in one of the eggs to make a sticky dough. Squeeze the dough down into heart shaped cases (makes 8-10). Brush the cases with the remaining beaten egg. Bake for 20 minutes and then leave to cool.<br />
For the filling, heat the cream, splenda and vanilla on the hob. Melt the chocolate with the butter in the microwave, then add to the cream until completely melted. Fill your tart cases, chill for and hour, then serve with some raspberries or strawberries and some extra cream!<br />
<br />

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.youtube.com/embed/4yffJcuwthI?feature=player_embedded' frameborder='0'></iframe></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So this is probably one of my favourite recipes - mainly because it's ready in about 3 minutes, so it's a really quick fix when you have a sweet craving.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I was inspired to make this by the Cookie Dough dessert you get at Pizza Hut - the warm half baked cookie dough with a dollop of ice cream in the middle - an indulgent pudding for two, that I used to always devour by myself.<br />
<br />
And, with this recipe, you can now do the same without putting on any weight!<br />
<br />
All it takes is: <br />
2 tablespoons of butter<br />
4 tablespoons of splenda<br />
a few drops of vanilla extract<br />
chopped up sugar-free chocolate - I use Cavalier Dark Chocolate (it has a much nicer taste than the Balance brand)<br />
2 tablespoons Carbalose flour </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
5 tablespoons ground almonds</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
The Splenda, Cavalier chocolate, Carbalose flour and ground almonds can all be bought <a href="http://www.jillybakes.co.uk/" target="_blank">here</a></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
You can, if you want, use just ground almonds and omit the Carbalose flour. You may also need to add more/less flour so that it is not too sticky.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Then you just mix all the ingredients together in a bowl, bung it in the microwave till the chocolate melts and goes all gooey, and then eat it straight away with a dollop of cream or sugar-free ice cream!<br />
<br />
You can also just eat the dough raw, or roll it into little balls to make Cookie Dough Ice Cream (just like Ben & Jerry's)</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Tastes so naughty...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
But it's not.</div>

So in April 2012 I turned the sweet age of 21, and to celebrate I went out to eat with my friends at <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pages/Twisted-Lemon/" target="_blank">Twisted Lemon</a> in Brighton, and then the following day for lunch with my family at Hotel du Vin.</div>

Aswell as being served, at Twisted Lemon, one of the best burgers I've ever eaten (with halloumi to replace the bun) - I also found what is now my favourite cocktail: "Mint and Cookie Mudslide". Perhaps the highest carb option on the menu, it is made of Vodka, Mozart Dark Chocolate Liqueur, Creme de Menthe, Bailey's and Milk, crushed with ice, Oreo's and Ice Cream, My mission now is to make a low-carb alternative. Luckily, Oreos also come in sugar free: <a href="http://www.americansweets.co.uk/american-sugar-free-oreo-cookies-675oz-191g-box-17316-p.asp" target="_blank">see here.</a></div>

At Hotel du Vin, we were treated with Kir Royales and the most delicious French cuisine. And to top it off, an extremely rich and decadent dark chocolate torte (and disgustingly high carb!).</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">You can really use any combination of the ingredients for the base, depending on what nuts you like and what phase of Atkins you are on. You can also use sugar free biscuits (crushed up) that can be found <a href="http://www.jillybakes.co.uk/" target="_blank">here</a>, and milled flax seeds also work really nicely. I found the almond
extract really made all the difference - it creates an almost marzipan-like taste.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Mix all the ingredients together and then squish into the base of a
springform tin. Bake for 10 minutes then leave to cool.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">For the filling, blend the mascarpone and cream cheese with the Splenda. Beat in the eggs one at a time. Fold in the vanilla, whipping cream
and double cream, then pour over the base.Cook in the oven for an hour,
then turn the oven off and leave it to cook in the heat as the oven
cools down for half an hour (so as to prevent the top from cracking. Towards the end of the cooking time, you can add blueberries to the top if you wish.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">Remove from the oven and leave to cool at room temperature before refridgerating overnight in the tin.</span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">The following day, take your cheesecake out of the tin, and enjoy! </span></span></div>

<br />
"Digital" Brighton - voted "Best Small UK Club 2011" by DJ Mag. Home to some fantastic resident DJ's, including the extremely talented George "Poundance" Nunn.<br />
<br />
Ofcourse, the night began at home. Deciding what to wear and predrinking with my three beautiful house mates, Tom, Camille and Rachel. <br />

Perhaps the best part of the night: capturing the progression of our drinking from the sillyness of our photos.<br />

After this photo, it was time to make our way to the Club night itself: endless drinks costing only a pound (hence the name, "Poundance") and the one pound entry. A concept in itself that will inevitably leave you wondering the next morning: "What happened last night? Where was I?".<br />
Thank goodness we had the photos.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I will begin with the line: "Hi, my name's Jilly, and I'm on Atkins."</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I create low carb recipes, and post videos of myself making them on YouTube. Here's one of my low carb Cookie Dough: </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I also sell ingredients at <a href="http://www.jillybakes.co.uk/" target="_blank">www.jillybakes.co.uk</a></div>

But how did this all begin?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well, it started in my Gap Year whilst working as a waitress in the heart of New Zealand's fashion capital - Newmarket, Auckland. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I got fat.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When I arrived in NZ, I was 8 stone. When I returned home, I was 11 and a half. The unlimited supply of muffins and caramel slices at the end of my shifts, the Whittakers chocolate, the endless Cadbury creations in flavours that I had never seen in the UK. If it was sweet, I had to have it.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I was miserable. Addicted to clothes and shopping, and yet none of the clothes fit. Not only did trousers split when I sat down - but so did leggings. LEGGINGS. Stretchy leggings.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
When I got back to England, I had no choice but to diet. My mum had been on the Atkins diet for 7 years, and had started her own business, <a href="http://www.avidlite.co.uk/" target="_blank">Avidlite</a>, selling diet products. So, naturally, I followed suit. And, by cutting out carbs, I lost all the weight I had put on by the time my Fresher's Week at Uni began.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
And nobody there knew about my little, fat secret.</div>
