It has been one whole year since getting laser eye surgery and I literally have no idea where the time has gone! Hopefully you are familiar with my laser eye journey which started over a year ago and know that it was definitely not an easy ride. To recap, I had LASEK iDesign with Optical …
One whole year. I am going to start by stating how PROUD I am of myself for everything I have created in this past year. A website, a book, a finance tracker, weekly blog content and much more whilst working full-time as an external auditor, becoming ACA qualified and maintaining my 5-day week gym life. …
So far in this blog series, I have mainly covered the factual side of how my skin went out of control. We can now confirm dairy was my enemy. What I did not really touch on is how I dealt with the aesthetic side of things during my final year of university. It is a …
Part 1 revealed exactly how disastrous my skin had suddenly become. I was diagnosed with disseminated secondary eczema in late 2016 that had no cure. However, as stated, I began to realise that things did not quite add up. If it was triggered by an allergic reaction, why did my skin allergy patch test come …
Today is the day I have decided to take you along the very difficult journey I have had in somewhat recent years with my skin. Growing up, I fortunately had never suffered with eczema, psoriasis or anything of the sort. I had only really experienced mild acne on my face. This all changed in March …
A phrase I often hear is “where do you get the time?” and this is exactly what I want to delve into with this blog post. In the past year I have managed to become ACA exam qualified, create Jag’s Journey and write/post weekly blogs since, release a finance tracker, release a BOOK, help many …
Thank you for staying tuned with my Invisalign journey. So far I have covered details about the initial consultation, the first fitting and the unexpected first weeks of Invisalign. In this blog, I would like to continue with this Invisalign journey but share details that are more unknown at the start of the treatment. This …
The time has come in my life where I can no longer do without having a car. Before COVID-19, I would always travel on trains. I did not need a car for work, I could go to the gym in town on the way home from work and I am fortunate enough to have amazing …
Now that I have covered the first steps such as the consultation and treatment plan in my Invisalign journey, this brings me on to the first weeks of Invisalign. As with laser eye surgery, I clearly have a habit of not researching what to expect beforehand. I literally just seem to go with the flow …
Before reading this blog post, I would recommend reading the Invisalign blog prior to this. In the first blog I have already covered why I made the tough decision to get Invisalign. As per my free scan at the consultation, I was under the impression that Invisalign would solve all my insecurities and issues with …
Now that I have taken you through my laser eye journey, I am now excited to bring you along my experience with Invisalign. If you are unfamiliar with Invisalign, it is essentially a brand which provides clear braces. Having already had braces before, apparently 80% of Invisalign customers have had braces previously, I was not …
Welcome to my secret behind how I manage to make an average saving of 83.71% of my monthly disposable income (after bills) since October 2019. This means I am spending approximately only £204.57 per month after bills. Due to this finance tracking spreadsheet entirely, which I started in December 2018, I have managed to save …
Below are a list of frequently asked questions (FAQ) I have been asked, some through the Facebook group or directly. Disclaimer: Please note, I am not an optometrist. I have however recently undergone LASEK iDesign laser eye surgery and have researched a lot around this. These answers have therefore come from my own experiences and …
If you have been following my LASEK laser eye journey, you will know it has not been an easy ride. The first month in terms of vision fluctuation was absolutely horrendous. It was a very difficult time and a rollercoaster to say the least. However, I described my one month aftercare appointment to be a …
If you are reading this, I am assuming you have decided to take the exciting yet daunting leap of faith to get laser eye surgery (good luck)! It was not until I had my treatment that I realised there were some strict guidelines I needed to adhere to following laser eye surgery. These guidelines caught …
