What better way to start the year, than with some new gym gear?! I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, new gym outfits make me excited to go to the gym! I want to show off my new clothes and see how well they fare during a sweaty workout. I always like for my outfits to serve a…
In the last few months, I’ve seen some friends who I hadn’t seen in a while. A lot of them have been asking me what I’ve been doing to get into the shape I’m in now and how I manage to keep going with everything I have going on. I’ve also been going through some old pictures and videos since…
Have you been trying to lose weight for years with different diets and types of exercise? Do you find that the thing that works for your friend doesn’t work you? It’s so frustrating working super hard on your diet and training and not getting any results. Of course, training and and a good diet will get you some results, but…
I love food. I love eating it and I love making food for others. Breakfast is probably my favourite meal because there is just so much choice. I mean, the fact that I can do sweet or savoury, 1 course or 2 courses, just makes it the most enjoyable meal time for me. Just typing this is making me excited…
So, you’ve decided to join the gym. You have told yourself that you are going to be committed to going a few times a week to get fitter and stronger. Awesome!

It has only started to feel like it this weekend for me when we went to a lovely Christmas Grotto in Sidcup (Ruxley Manor) and saw Father Christmas and all the lovely decorations there. It’s given me some great inspiration for when we set up our decorations over the next…
I happen to have 2 scales at home. One just reads your weight, the other, weight, BMI and body fat. One day, I decided to weigh myself on both scales and noticed that they gave me different results. I then went to the gym and weighed myself there. I got different results again. Funnily enough, I was having this conversation…
My daughter, Elsie, LOVES nursery rhymes! She wakes up asking to watch them, and we sing them before she goes to bed. Her favourite ones are those that include actions or dancing, which I found really cute…until we had done “heads, shoulders, knees and toes” 15 times in the space of 10 minutes. For us mums, finding time to exercise…
Granola is one of my favourite things to have for breakfast or a snack. But, 1. It’s way too expensive for what it is and 2. Shop bought versions always have too much sugar. Oh, and there’s also the fact that you have to find the brand that has just the right ingredients that you actually like! I like nutty…
