To appreciate & value life & respect our history, I have a knitted poppy this year.

And I will certainly be wearing this one with pride.

๐ŸŒบ Whilst we are 11 days away from Remembrance Sunday itโ€™s always good to reflect on what itโ€™s all about & what it represents.

๐Ÿ™To to be grateful to all those who are in the forces today keeping us safe, those who have served & all those who fought & sadly lost their lives in the line of duty.

Without them we may not be here today.

So I say embrace life, be the best you can be, be the healthiest you can be, value & appreciate each other, be happy and be kind.
And wear your poppy with pride โค๏ธ

Sorry ladies but itโ€™s time to post this one again!

Dare I say it BUT I can't believe we are 9 and a bit WEEKS away from the festive season!!
Before you know it, it will be upon us!

With that in mind:
๐Ÿ‘—How are you feeling about digging out the party dress?
๐Ÿค”You don't want to even think about it yet?
๐Ÿ˜ฒ "Oh There's plenty of time, I'll just need to "be good"
๐Ÿ™ "I can't worry about that now, there's too much going on"

BUT it's not just about the dress, it's:
๐Ÿ‘‰ How do you feel about yourself?
๐Ÿ‘‰ How do you feel in your clothes?
๐Ÿ‘‰ How are your generally feeling?
๐Ÿ‘‰ Are you happy both inside & out?
๐Ÿ‘‰ How do you want to feel for the rest of your life?
๐Ÿ‘‰ Do you want to change your mindset/relationship with food?
๐Ÿ‘‡
And whatโ€™s your self confidence like?

Iโ€™ve had a few enquiries following my post last week about my Wednesday evening classes 6-7pm & whether I was planning to run any morning classes.

Iโ€™m conscious there are many of you out there who may be retired, may not work mornings or may be a busy Mum & who are struggling to find a friendly all ladies fitness group to come along to on a morning.

โ€ผ๏ธWell, Iโ€™d love the opportunity to meet & train with you!
So I am putting out some feelers to see who would be interested!

My classes are:

โœ… Strength based using a variety of equipment & body weight BUT all to suit your needs & to work with any challenges you may have.

โœ… Itโ€™s not about lifting heavy weights

โœ… Designed to strengthen & tone - this is key as we approach different stages of our lives

โœ… Ladies only - friendly, fun & non judgmental

โœ… For beginner AND any level welcome

โœ… Varies every week

If this sounds like something youโ€™d be interested please either drop a comment below ๐Ÿ‘‡ or message me direct or email
[email protected]

I have potential premises lined up already!

๐Ÿ™ Please do share away !

Iโ€™d love to hear from you

Ladies letโ€™s do this!

After a lovely relaxing time with hubby , some sun, lovely food & drinks itโ€™s back to managed portions for me!

๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸปAs I normally do I tried to capture a few of my meals so as I can share with you (not literally) before I gobbled them up! ๐Ÿ˜‚
โ—๏ธBut also to demonstrate you CAN still eat healthy whilst being away from home..

All of which are delicious & nutritious with a bit of indulgence too!

โค๏ธHere are just a few of my favourites I enjoyed
and all of which can easily be created at home!
In no particular order.

โ–ถ๏ธ Omelettes with mushrooms, ham, peppers. Spinach, herbs & salad.

โ–ถ๏ธ A small side of chia pudding

โ–ถ๏ธ Grilled chicken, hummus (too much!) some Turkish dips such as ezme, yoghurt based ones

โ–ถ๏ธ Salmon a few times - black rice with one meal

โ–ถ๏ธ Greek yogurt, peanut butter, chia, fruit

โ–ถ๏ธ French toast omg! This was delicious! Think it was brioche with fruit, peanut butter & yoghurt
โ–ถ๏ธ Grouper with salad

โ–ถ๏ธ Prawns

โ–ถ๏ธ Actually only had one pud, fruit as the main one

Lots of healthy MAIN dishes BUT what do you notice?

โ€ผ๏ธYes!! My portion sizes went out the window in some cases!
Where were my hands ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ when I needed them?! (See previous posts on portion sizes )
It happens to us all!

๐Ÿ˜ณ And of course a cocktail or 2 - Prosecco & nibbles!

๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸปIs there anything here you fancy?
Let me know what you think by dropping a comment below ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿ–๏ธ Iโ€™m back now, following a lovely time away with hubby in Turkey last week.

๐Ÿ™„ And heading now into a busy social period as we head towards Christmas!
Did I just say that?!!
Where has this year gone?

Iโ€™m sure itโ€™s like that for many of you too!

โœ‹ It can however potentially stop us from making those lifestyle changes we want to make, because โ€œweโ€™ve always got something going onโ€ but does it really have to stop us or are we using that as a reason not to?

๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธCould this be you?

๐Ÿคทโ€โ™€๏ธAre we afraid of giving up those things we enjoy?

๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸปFor some of us it maybe that weโ€™re waiting for that trigger point to kick start us into taking some action.

So, donโ€™t any of the following resonate with you?

1๏ธโƒฃ Perimenopause/Menopause - whilst it's not exactly a party every day it is something that happens to all us lovely ladies!

2๏ธโƒฃ Planning a wedding or going to a wedding?

3๏ธโƒฃ Reaching a milestone birthday?

4๏ธโƒฃ Having a family?

5๏ธโƒฃ A holiday

6๏ธโƒฃ Had a pre-diabetic diagnosis or other health issue/scare?

7๏ธโƒฃ Or just simply want to get healthier but don't know where to start?

8๏ธโƒฃ Wanting to do something about their weight but are too scared to get in touch?

โœ…If the answer is YES to any of these and you're wanting to do something about your weight management/health then please do get in touch - it will be one of the best things you ever do.
Please check out my reviews to see what other clients say, you won't be disappointed.
I'd love to help you too.
If you know anyone which this post may resonate with please do share away!

Iโ€™m not going to lie but I feel a bit apprehensive sharing these pictures of me.

I have rarely shared pictures of me like this to anyone, let alone social media as itโ€™s personal to me.

So, for me itโ€™s a bit of risk, but I hope you will understand why Iโ€™ve done this.
And Itโ€™s not to get feedback or comments I promise.

๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸปI made a commitment to you on a previous post, that Iโ€™d share with you, how Iโ€™ve got on.
I guess I felt a bit accountable to all of you and Iโ€™m a woman of my word!

โ—๏ธBefore I start, the other thing to remember is, that we are all different, shapes, sizes, physique, morphologies & heights.
My off track will be different to yours.
We all have very different goals.

๐Ÿฅ… My goal is not necessarily going to be the same as yours or as the next person.
And the same applies to you.

So, here I am on the left towards the end of July & on the right 10 weeks later.
And have still had socials during this period.

๐Ÿ‘‡The main things for me were:
โ–ถ๏ธ I wasnโ€™t feeling great about myself & being perimenopausal only added to how I felt about me.

โ–ถ๏ธI was beginning to think that Iโ€™d never shift the extra pounds gained & thought it must be down to perimenopause & my age.

โ–ถ๏ธ I was still training consistently but not progressing or seeing any physical changes.

โ–ถ๏ธI wanted & needed to be pushed & challenged.


โœ‹โ€if youโ€™ve always done what youโ€™ve always done, youโ€™ll always get what youโ€™ve always gotโ€

So, ๐„๐๐Ž๐”๐†๐‡ was ๐„๐๐Ž๐”๐†๐‡!
Something had to changeโ€ฆ

โœ… As a nutrition & fitness coach, Iโ€™m not ashamed to say that Iโ€™ve been working with a fitness coach too.

โญ๏ธTheyโ€™re an expert in what they do and Iโ€™m an expert in what I do.

โœ… I want to learn & to be the best I can be so learning & self development is key for me.

โœ… Iโ€™ve massively progressed my training and am so much stronger.

โœ… Iโ€™ve made a few changes to my diet to allow me to fuel myself correctly & train hard!

โœ… Iโ€™ve worked flipping hard - itโ€™s made me realise how much I can push myself instead of just going through the motions.

โœ… This has pushed me outside of my comfort zone, itโ€™s also challenged some of my beliefs & values.
I donโ€™t always agree but challenge is a good thing.

โœ… If you really want something you can make it happen.

โ—๏ธEven though I help so many ladies on a daily basis who feel like I did, it doesnโ€™t mean Iโ€™m immune from all of this stuff.

If youโ€™d like to get things back under control then Iโ€™m here waiting to help you.

Come on! Letโ€™s do this - life is too short to not feel great about yourself โค๏ธ

I know itโ€™s gonna sound kinda weird but do you know what, itโ€™s really hard to leave my clients โค๏ธ and of course all of you lovely followers!

I am however, sooo looking forward to having some quality time with hubby, some R&R & hopefully finding the sun โ˜€๏ธ

โ—๏ธBut donโ€™t worry ๐Ÿคฃ Iโ€™m hoping to prepare & scheduled my posts in for you whilst Iโ€™m away so sadly youโ€™re not going to get a break from me! ๐Ÿคฃ

๐Ÿ™ So please still tune in to see what I have in store for you & of course your continued support in commenting, sharing, liking, loving, laughing as always is appreciated x

Have a great weekend & week next week!

And, if that wasnโ€™t touching enough, the card with it read:

โ€œThese flowers are growing in our garden & they remind me of you Lisa; bright & sunny.
Thank you once again for your support & immense knowledge,โ€

How lovely & amazing is that?!!
๐Ÿ˜ข Talk about bring a tear to my eye!!

Iโ€™m so lucky to do what I do & work with such amazing clients,

I donโ€™t expect anything from my clients other than for them to get the best experience from working with me.
And that they feel confident when they leave with me to continue, as they have the tools & knowledge they need.

Thank you to you all too youโ€™re all very special x

This is another common phrase I hear from my ladies before they start working with me.

So what causes bloating?

๐Ÿ˜”That swelling or feeling of fullness in the tummy is a common thing & not just us ladies who experience this.
I donโ€™t know about you but it can make me feel a bit down.
So, whatโ€™s going on in that tummy then?

๐Ÿ’จ Well, itโ€™s usually a result of gas in the intestines which can be caused by many things connected to the diet including overeating.& eating too fast, alcohol, constipation or possibly an intolerance to lactose.

It could also be hormone related or worse case scenario it could be more serious but, there would be more likely to be additional symptoms so always get yourself checked out if you are or if youโ€™re unsure & worried.

Whilst a bit of bloating is normal & happens to us all:
๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ The great thing is, that for the vast majority of us it is down to diet & thatโ€™s exactly where I can help & where I do help all the ladies I work with if they are experiencing this & where it is down to their diet.

So, if youโ€™d like to be set free of the bloat & start to feel better about yourself. feel good in your clothes please get in touch.

Feel free to comment and/or share - youโ€™re not alone.

Whether thatโ€™s nutrition, my fitness classes or personal training or a combination.

โœ… New friendships are formed
โœ… A fantastic support network is created
โœ… Having fun & laughter ๐Ÿ˜‚
โœ… Brings a social aspect ๐Ÿคฃ
โœ… Added motivation
โœ… Helps generally to strengthen mindset

And the list goes on!

Honestly, I'm not being rude, the reason I'm asking you in this way is because that's what a lot of my ladies tell me that they are - โ€œpeople pleasers.โ€

And that's often why they find it challenging to put themselves first.

๐Ÿคท But why do so many of us do this? It could be...

1๏ธโƒฃ We don't like letting people down
2๏ธโƒฃ We don't like to offend people
3๏ธโƒฃ It could stem from our childhood, parents & grandparents so, we've learnt it
4๏ธโƒฃ People expect us to behave a certain way because we've always been like that
5๏ธโƒฃWe feel guilty or bad if we don't....
6๏ธโƒฃOr it could be something else?
7๏ธโƒฃ Are you using it as an excuse?

Whatever it is, you could be allowing it stop you from achieving whatever your goal maybe or simply doing something for yourself/putting yourself first.

๐Ÿ‘‰If any of this applies, one of the things I will do is to coach & help you to find a way of managing those occasions/situations.

As these are often the ones that my clients find the most challenging & more often than not, food will be involved.

๐Ÿ‘‰ So, Is it time to start putting yourself first,?
If the answer is yes, then please do get in touch, I'd love to help you too.

Remember everyone will achieve different results, it may take longer to make real changes & may have different outcomes - we are all different.

โ€ผ๏ธAlso remember the most important thing is that you see ๐Ÿ‘€ the differences not anyone else.

After 8 weeks of working with me this lady has lost almost 11 pounds & 23cm which is amazing ๐Ÿคฉ

Whilst it took this lady a few weeks to consistently make the changes thatโ€™s all ok ๐Ÿ‘Œ.sheโ€™s got it now.

The key ๐Ÿ”‘is learning & being able to implement things at your pace.

But heck! Iโ€™m super proud of her xx

So, when she came to me her biggest challenges were:
1๏ธโƒฃ Snacking
2๏ธโƒฃ Overeating
3๏ธโƒฃ Portion sizes
4๏ธโƒฃ โ€œGives up easilyโ€
5๏ธโƒฃ Self sabotaging
6๏ธโƒฃ Was always โ€œgrabbingโ€ food & snacks
7๏ธโƒฃ Staying motivated
8๏ธโƒฃ Reached for unhealthier choices when stressed & tired.

Now 8 weeks on:
โœ… โ€œI canโ€™t believe how little I snack!โ€
โœ… This is something I can do long term.
โœ… โ€œMy mindset is completely differentโ€
โœ… โ€œIโ€™ve broken so many habits!โ€
โœ… โ€œI donโ€™t feel deprived โ€œ
โœ… โ€œI used to always go down the crisps, chocolate & biscuit aisles in the super markets but now Iโ€™m not bothered!โ€
โœ… โ€œI I can see a real difference in how I lookโ€
โœ… โ€œI now listen to my bodyโ€

This lady now has the toolโ€™s & knowledge to allow her to keep working towards her goal & is keen to start her fitness again.

๐Ÿ™ Itโ€™s a big thing for this lady as it is for many to be able to share her pics & her story
So a big thank you ๐Ÿ™ from the bottom of my heart โค๏ธ.

I look forward to hearing all about her continued progress.

๐Ÿ™Œ๐ŸผPlease do join me in congratulating this lady on her amazing progress so far - well done!! ๐Ÿ‘

Itโ€™s almost 6 weeks ago now, I gave myself a right old talking to!

The reason Iโ€™m telling you this is, because most of us do go through this, ME included.

โœ… Itโ€™s how we deal with it rather than just burying our heads in the sand & ignoring whatโ€™s really going on.

โ–ถ๏ธ So, I wasnโ€™t feeling great about myself.
โ–ถ๏ธ My diet, whilst still healthy in the main, needed reigning in. Particularly on the weekends.
โ–ถ๏ธ More around portions Iโ€™d say rather than lots of unhealthier bits.
โ–ถ๏ธ My training days remained consistent but I just felt like I wasnโ€™t progressing, I was going more โ€œthrough the motions just to get it done.โ€

โœ‹So, ๐„๐๐Ž๐”๐†๐‡ was ๐„๐๐Ž๐”๐†๐‡!

Iโ€™ll share more with you in a few weeks time, but basically:

โœ…Iโ€™m eating better overall
โœ… Eating more ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ
โœ… Weekends whilst still socialising & having the things I enjoy, are managed much better.
โœ… Lost a few pounds
โœ… Training much better, harder & pushing myself
โœ… Thatโ€™s down to fuelling myself properly
โœ… Seeing the benefits both from my nutrition and my training
โœ… Not feeling bloated
โœ… Feel better in my clothes

So even though I help so many ladies on a daily basis who feel like I did, it doesnโ€™t mean Iโ€™m immune from all of this stuff.

If youโ€™d like to get things back under control then Iโ€™m here waiting to help you.

Come on! Letโ€™s do this - life is too short to not feel great about yourself โค๏ธ

I use the word โ€œsummerโ€ very loosely!

Whatever you get up to, I hope you manage to make some time for you โค๏ธ

Surround yourself with people who make you happy & make you feel good,

See you all again next week.
Have a lovely one!

๐Ÿซข I DIDNโ€™T THINKโ€ฆ..
5 years ago, that Iโ€™d be standing here now, hanging out washing with my name all over it!

At the time I was approaching the end of a 32 year career in banking, and had no idea what I was going to do next.

๐Ÿ˜ณIโ€™m not going to lie it was a bit of an emotional rollercoaster but I always knew, as a firm believer, that one door closes & another opens and that things happen for a reason.

๐Ÿ†During those 32 years, I was fortunate to have some first class training, met some amazing people; colleagues & customers some of which have become firm friends today.

๐Ÿ™I have got lots to be grateful for.
Without this, I wouldnโ€™t be where I am today.
Doing the best job I could have ever wished for.

Since setting up my business almost 4 years ago, I've been very fortunate to help & support all of which have been truly inspirational ladies (and a few guys) who I feel very privileged to have helped & worked with.

โœ…Once you get your mindset in the right place, you can do anything you want to & achieve some amazing things.

๐Ÿฅ… With this in mind, is there something you've always wanted to do or something you want to achieve?

If there is then, go for it!
