Im just me.. Marleen

Hello Beautiful People
and welcome to my new blog..

The idea behind this blog is simple.. A place to share me, my life, my views and opinions..
I have learnt, that in life, we sometimes have to put ourselves "out there" in order to let people in.

So I guess this is my little platform to do just that.

I've started and stopped this blog a few times, nervous to let people in, nervous of what people would think of me for putting my life out there. But in reality.. I AM just ME.. so take it or leave it.. Follow my journey or dont.. Either way is ok but Id love to have you here.

So let me start by introducing myself..

I am a plus size, nearly 42 year old, Jujitsu loving, Gym loving mamma. Its what I do. Im still quite unfit but I do my best to keep up with the guys on the mat and I get fitter and stronger each time I go to the gym. Im Danish, I live in Ireland with my Irish hubby and our 3 kids. Im lucky to be a stay at home mum and Im a crafter. I have a CRAFTING BLOG if you want to see my work or you can find me on the links down below by my signature..

Other then that, my life is quiet, just the way I like it. A few close friends and my dog rounds it all off.
And that is it for this time.  Thank you for popping by and for any comments left behind.
Dont forget to come visit me on FaceBook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, Youtube or my FB page.

Depression.. My Story

Hello Beautiful People and welcome to my blog. In order for you to get to know me, I believe this is one of the first subjects I need to talk about and I hope you will forgive the long post. Yep I'll say it out loud.. I suffer from depression.. Depression for me, is like a lake. A black black lake, deepest in the center. As my life flows from one day to the next, I stand around this lake. On good days I’m happily dancing around the lake never going near the water. When I have bad days, it feels like I have taken a step into the lake. At the ‘height’ of my depression, I was standing in the center and the water rising. I was drowning. I literally felt like I was drowning. I could feel the water starting to cover my face, my mouth, my nose and all I could do was let it.. Lucky enough I realized what was going on and got help. Monday 17th oct 2011 is a date I will never forget. It was the day I asked for help and the day I saved my life. I was with my baby at a check up wit

SHEIN PLUS SIZE REVIEW... and how I got to try them..

Hello Beautiful People  and welcome to my blog.. Today's post.. A SHEIN review. . and how I got to try them.. Its no secret that I'm a plus size girl. I have been all of my adult life and have spent many years trying to change that. But over the last few years, I have come to realise that hating my plus size body, just don't do me any good. Maybe one day I will be slim, maybe I wont, but learning to love myself and look after myself just the way I am, is the key to being happier. My eldest, Emma, is 15 and she is my biggest supporter only outdone by the hubby lol.. She will NEVER let me call myself fat, or let me say anything negative about my body. I guess my years of telling her that there are no ugly people, only people with ugly hearts, has rubbed off lol.. Before the summer I realised that going home to Denmark, where it can be hot, I needed some summer clothes. So off to town me and Em went. There are very few places in our town that has plus size clothes. M

How to shop on SHEIN + Discount codes

Hey beauties So many people reach out to me after watching my SHEIN hauls and ask me how to get the best success when shopping on SHEIN. So in order to help you out, and have it all in one place, I decided to sit and pen it down for you. First of all, if you are not familiar with SHEIN, they are a Chinese clothing company. They are SUPER affordable and has truly become a big player in the high street fashion industry. The main reason most people love SHEIN is simply that its like an online Primark/Penney's. They have so many small quirky things in the homeware department, their kids clothes are great and they have great fashion for both men & women. And here we come to why I love SHEIN. SHEIN is not only affordable but they have affordable fashion for PLUS SIZE !! I know of no other website that can offer the quality that SHEIN do. I know of no other website that offer as fashionable and quirky as they do. And I know of no other website that offer such a HUGE section for PLUS S
