Lets not talk about the tan ok 😂

I just wanted to talk about the lil mindset shift I had on holiday.

This holiday was pretty special (obviously it was my hen do duh 😂) it was the first holiday EVER that I wore a full bikini.

I normally have some form of shorts on.

This is the first holiday since 2018 so my body is definitely different & so is my mindset.

Im not in the shape id like to be & there are some insecurities bubbling under the surface, but…

The thing I realised is no one cares ❌

No one is pointing or staring ❌

Everyone is just focused on themselves & getting sweet tan (not jealous at all 💁🏻‍♀️)

My point in this post is to remind you that life is short, too short to be consumed by your thoughts about your body.

But that its ok & completely normal to have insecurities about your body but you don’t have to let them stop you from living 🥰

No one can say they are 100% happy in their body & you never will be.

But you can learn to love your body for the amazing fact it keeps you alive & supports you every single day 🙌🏻

*Pics attached to show 2018 vs now. Not a huge difference body wise I know.

But I am so much more confident & happier in my skin than before and that matters soooo much more🙏🏻

As a coach helping your client lose weight & feel better about themselves is usually a given.

But its not my ‘MAIN’ priority ❌

My main goals a your coach is to help you make the relevant changes to your lifestyle so that you improve the following…

👉🏻 Your relationship with food
👉🏻 Getting you moving & active
👉🏻 Your relationship with yourself
👉🏻 Improving your confidence

The last but definitely an important one.

👉🏻 Make it simple & easy to fit you & your lifestyle ✅

Whats the point in following a diet that doesn’t suit you & your lifestyle?

Which is exactly what I have done with 😊

What started off as a fat-loss journey transformed into her taking control of her life & putting herself first.

She has dealt with soo much over the last year & a bit. But she is so much stronger mentally to deal with it.

Which has helped her not throw the towel in 👏🏻

She is in a much better place to start focusing back on fat-lose now.

How do you deal with the things life throws at you?

Do you just think ah ill wait till it gets easier to prioritise my health & fitness?

Or can you keep yourself ticking over till things get easier?

If not I can teach you how 😊

All you have to do is let me know, DM & lets have a chat 📱

How the night began 😂🍹🥂

To how the night ended 🤢🤮
(Swipe to the end 🫣)

Had the best day, that I can remember anyway. So grateful for these bi***es 🥰

Definitely to old for this now god help me in maga next month 🙃

You can change a lot in a year 👏🏻

0.5kg (1lbs) mind not sound like a lot of weight loss right?

If you achieved that in a year you would be disappointed wouldn’t you?

Of course you would & Jo agreed 😊

But then she also said that the lifestyle & mindset changes she has made are MORE IMPORTANT.

Because she will never have to worry about gaining the weight back ❌

After a big diet we took a step back & pushed up food & focused on training, nutrition, sleep, self-care & mindset work.

She has put in 12 months of hard work doing the s**t people don’t want to do because it doesn’t get results straight away.

She isn’t done ❌

We are in Jo’s final dieting phase now (pretty much for good, well with big dieting).

All that hard work will show 💪🏻

Then we get her into a maintenance phase so she can live her life never having to worry about dieting again 🙌🏻

That is the definition of a successful diet ✅

Not 8 weeks or starving yourself & training yourself into the ground.

Only to gain all the weight back after you stop ❌

If you want similar results to Jo, then lets chat 😊

Send me a message to find out more 📱

Are you a slimming club member?

Well listen up 👂🏻

Im all for finding your approach to fat-loss but in a safe & sustainable way.

Doing something that fits you & your lifestyle ✅

Not something that forces you to cut out most foods cause you know syns 🤷🏻‍♀️

(Don’t even get me started on that term 🤬)

Definitely not something that shames you in front of a group of people for ‘ONLY’ losing 3lbs that week 🤯

(Unqualified people running these groups btw that know f**k all 🤔)

Slimming world is literally set up so you fail & have to return over & over & over again.

Hows that a successful diet??

Sarah was in the exact same position you are right now.

She was returning to slimming world to give it one last shot.

But then she reached out to me 🥰

And the last 8 months…

Ill let her speak for herself have a swipe through to see her progress 💪🏻

Yes she may have lost weight quicker in the beginning if she had done slimming world, but…

I can guarantee she wouldn’t have maintained it especially over xmas 🎅🏻

Not only has she done that but ahe is still progressing each week.

Getting stronger, more confident & more happy in herself ♥️

Things slimming world would have never given her ❌

So if your thinking about dusting the old books off & getting yourself to a meeting, DM me 😊

Let me help you like I helped sarah, slimming world is always going to be there (unfortunately).

What have you got to lose? 🙌🏻

Are the scales ruining your progress?

Are you set on achieving a specific number & then thats it you will be happy 👏🏻

The scales can be a complicated tool to use if you don’t understand them.

(See yesterday’s post for more info 👇🏻)

Jo has worked with me for a year now, we have worked on a number of things.

We have been through a fat-loss phase going from 66kg to 60kg, to then maintaining & coming out of a diet completely.

After 10+ years of yo-yo dieting her body needed the break 🙌🏻

Leading up to now the last big diet she will ever do before a big wedding 🤔

(hmmm wonder who’s that could be 😂)

From her very first pics to nows, there is 1lbs difference 🤯

Yet a complete change in her body 💪🏻

This is why you have to stop letting the scales dictate your choices & how you judge your progress!

And whilst I have your attention…

GO LIFT WEIGHTS LADIES 💪🏻

Stop being afraid of getting big & bulky, you can change your whole damn body with lifting.

If you want to achieve a similar transformation to jo, then DM & lets have a chat to see how I can help 😊
