VIDEO: Mountain Climbing in Benalmadena

This was the most adventurous and exciting part of our trip to Malaga. We stumbled across the cable cars when we headed to the Theme Park.

My New Baby

From the title of this post, I'm pretty sure you've guessed it. YES! I have a new baby. Ive been waiting for this moment for literally 9months. You know that moment that us mothers bang on about looking into their babies eyes for the first time? How soul touching it is. You just feel alive. I feel so blessed to re-live this feeling for the second time.

Summer Smoothies, Cramping Cardio and Yawning Yoga

What a way to start the weekend. I woke up and decided to make a fruity smoothie. I added frozen blackforest fruits, Hazelnut milk, water and half a scoop of my strawberry flavoured protein powder. What do you add to your fruity smoothies?

Now my lunch was all types of amazing, I'm still thinking about the taste of it right now. SO AMAZING. Grilled honey glazed salmon (Yes I'm getting trigger happy with this honey) With iceberg lettuce, olives, feta cheese drizzled with balsamic vinegar.. drool with me. So good and so filling that I didn't even have a dinner.

Off To A Good Start

Well this morning got off to a good start, possibly the best breakfast I've had in a long time. I scooped some Alpro Vanilla yoghurt into a desert jar, layered it with oats and raisins, added another layer of vanilla yoghurt then topped it off with blueberries and a drizzle of honey. DELICIOUS! surprisingly filling as well. I also woke up to a large glass of water and a Green tea. I always wake up extremely dehydrated so it was just what I needed.

I didn't actually eat much today as I was quite busy with the daily chores and errands, however I did have a couple bananas here and there.

I rustled up a quick lunch in the early afternoon. Avocado spread on wholemeal bread, topped with grilled halloumi cheese, So quick and simple. It wasn't amazing, I imagined it on toasted wholemeal with a mild salsa, I may try that tomorrow actually. Yummy.

Now for dinner, nothing fancy but oh so scrumptious. Honey Glazed grilled chicken, avocado on a bed of spinach, broccoli and brown rice. Ugh, you just had to be there, you just had to taste it, honey glazed! Mmmmm.

Well thats day 1 over, it all happened so quickly, and I'm quite proud of myself if I do say so myself.
How did you guys eat today? Any suggestions for an exciting healthy meal.. do tell.

Signing out with a cuppa Slimatea, I'll let you know how this detox goes.

The Starting Line

.. And so the Journey begins, I sit here thinking is this what I really want to do? Share my gruesome, painful, sweaty fitness journey with the world? Invite them into my kitchen to see what i'm eating? Take them along to the gym to share my workouts? Is this really what I want to do? Theres no going back.
Once you have joined me on this journey, there's no turning back, there's no giving up. I'm taking you along with me on my journey to fitness, blog by blog, vlog by vlog, day by day. I'm here to support you when you feel like indulging in a fat greasy burger, or a creamy pasta dish. I'm here to inspire you to take up a healthy lifestyle, whilst inspiring myself, its always best to go on these journeys with someone to share the experiences. So, Are you with me?

Great!!


Well heres a little about me. I am a food loving young mother, which I guess explains the huge pouch around my mid-rift that I'm trying to shift. I work as a freelance TV Presenter for Arsenal Fan Tv. Watching the footage back is the most gruesome thing ever, I would be moderately happy with my face/make-up but once my body is in shot its a Crisis. Not TV friendly at all. So it's time for a change, to improve my image and most importantly my health and lifestyle.

Now we all know how hard it can be to lose that
belly tyre, and its true what they say, it starts in the kitchen. This is going to be such a challenge, Food is my LIFE! but we're in this together right?.. Right?

GREAT!

Ok, so I promise to share a food diary with you; breakfast, lunch, dinner and liquids. I will also produce a weekly vlog on my youtube channel of my workouts and exercises. This is going to be so fun.

N.B As this was a impulse decision to get my act together I wasn't fully prepared to share an amazing lunch with you today, but in all fairness it was pretty healthy.

Ok, you got me, it was a pretty boring lunch, but I promise you they will be a whole lot better than this (Once I do my groceries) This popcorn is absolute heaven btw, Salt and Sweet and only 115 Calories. Winner. I also had a Cheese and Pickle with rocket sandwich on Wholemeal bread. Strangely tasty, And of course a bottle of water, ALWAYS.

Unless I'm out to dinner, its cocktails haha :)

Well I guess thats it for today my lovely, but don't forget to keep me posted on your progress with workouts and nutrition. We're in this together x
