Fat Fridays: How Far Can You Run? It’s Not a Competition. Before This blog is my safe space. I had never run before, not properly anyway.

Remember: Always Read the Labels

Fat Fridays: Is Sugar Sweet or Toxic? 09.04.2021

Before: I remember adding 3 large spoonful’s of sugar to any hot drink I had made. Stirring it and smiling in greedy delight to accept the sweetness I was about to deliver to myself.

Fat Fridays: Fear of Change? 02.04.2021

Before I hid my body away beneath layers of black clothing, oversized black clothing to be detailed. As I avoided looking in mirrors, I never really knew how stupid I looked.

Feedback on this vegan blend: Vanilla Flavour is tasty! Easy to drink. Quick Meal. Plant-based, 100% vegan. Packed with vitamins and minerals. As I felt full, I didn’t snack or overeat!

Weekend Workout – 06.03.2021

#WeekendWorkout I woke up this morning and went for a power-walk/light jog. It took me a few hours to peel myself up out of bed and push myself to get out of my front door.
