Anaesthetic high

It’s weird, when you are a child you are given constant reassurance, praise and multiple pats on the back for doing things well, or quite honestly, even averagely at times. Adulthood hits and there seems to be this weird shift. Suddenly we might make someone too much of a show off to praise them, too […]

Body Confidence

How many times have you clocked a beautiful girl, probably “bigger” than you and just thought wow, she looks amazing. I would bet a lot of money that her body confidence and heightened sense of self worth has made her look that bit more attractive than you feel you are. I am such a slave […]

Wedding nostalgia

One of my best friends gets married later this year, it’s a special fairy tale ending so I am extremely excited and all things wedding got me a bit nostalgic for my own wedding, nearly six years ago. Watching the home movie the other day I realised quite how different life is now and tried […]

New Year vision

Not at all cliche to pick up writing again 1st January but you know, New Years goals and all that jazz. The lovely Alice has done a collage board to show her “resolutions” as such and I thought it was a great visual representation. I am going to print mine out and stick it on […]

I’m baaack

So I’ve not blogged in what feels like years. The thirtieth birthday has been in full swing for the last few weeks and the weight loss has taken a back seat. I never fully recovered from Easter so I find myself currently 5 lb heavier than pre Easter and Birthday. Lines have been drawn and […]

Boxing 🥊🥊🥊

So the weekend didn’t really pan out as planned, an emergency dog rehome stalled the plans for a weekend away 🤦‍♂️. I did however still make it down to London for the Mahara sports event. I felt completely out of my comfort zone in all honesty and worried the whole train journey there that it […]

Fitness buddy

Who doesn’t love a good gym session with a friend. Today was the first time in years that I met a friend at the gym and she took me through an amazing circuit of weights and exercises. The time just flew by and I’m sure I worked a lot harder than I normally would so […]

The look of love 💕

So PT two days in a row with yoga thrown in has broken me. Pushing the double pram up the bridge home felt like I was on SAS, he who dares wins 😂. No pain no gain though right? I’m definitely in the all or nothing camp when it comes to exercise so aiming for […]

Tuesday essay 😂

I am having a busy week but not overly active so struggling to fit all my steps in, a lost bank card has also annoyed me, what an idiot. 🤦‍♂️ I was really pleased with myself as I remained on plan all weekend and a naughty weigh in on “the sad step” as Joe Wicks […]

Contemplation

Well that’s another Christmas over and another year I’ve eaten to excess and made myself feel ill! 🤦‍♂️ I feel vile but I have drawn a line in the sand and I am fully ready to be back on it tomorrow. It’s really not long until the big 3-0 so I need to stop messing […]
