The month of August ushered in two things, fresh Rain and New Yam! If you’re in Lagos (and indeed elsewhere in Naija) the eased lock-down would have had you expectant-exciting aromas of roasted yam with palm oil and veggies,corn on the cob paired off perfectly with African blue pear. But no, we are social distancing and with the rain now here, gathering with friends for an evening of fun and grubs is turfed . What a wow!
Don’t mind my sarcasm, I love the rain. I just don’t feel it’s needed...

Zzzz’ and weight loss, any connection? I’d say an intricate connection! Studies have it that too little sleep wrecks your metabolism encouraging weight gain! Several factors affect sleep: your bedtime rituals, room temperature, mattress quality, your dinner, age, environmental noises the list goes on.

About Me
My name is Juliet and I’m a mom, businesswoman, blogger, aspiring baker and Vincent’s lifetime girl! As a passionate weight ‘loss enthusiast’, I help people overcome their weight challenges by providing motivation, meal plans, recipes, exercise plans, tips and tricks simply because I’ve been there.
I believe in life- in all its beauty, dangers, worries, fun, pains, work (O yes!) excitement, happiness. I know that within each one of us is a burning desire to share, to do good, to work, to find meaning, to enhance that which we perceive to be oh so not good about us.
Weight challenges are an individual thing. Beauty issues are in the eyes of the beholder (my take!). But then, there’s a common denominator in all our problems: they won’t go away on their own.
There’s no one size fits all remedy for life’s problems. At khyra my aim is to provide you with the motivation, info, tools, time and community of like minds to help on your journey to a fit, graceful and trendy you.
I’ll be sharing home grown, weight loss, beauty and fitness ideas that help the modern woman (and our men!) shed excess kilograms, keep the weight off, live healthy vibrant lives, enjoying themselves and being at their most beautiful and productive best
