Been thinking about joining our January Bootcamp starting NEXT MONDAY 10th JANUARY, but want to hear more from someone who's done it before?

Here's a testimonial from one of our amazing clients Helen....

I just wanted to write a quick note to you all if you are thinking of starting the bootcamp and are still undecided. My name is Helen and exactly a year ago I started the elite program and looked like the first photo below. I have lost a huge 10 stone (140lbs or 63.5kg) in this last year. Finding Jess can only be described as a life saver. I now look like the second photo and feel a million times better than I was. The last photo was taken in front of the same door 10 months apart. All I can add to this statement is do it, let Jess and Dale Wallington help you it will be the best decision you ever make.

Don't overthink it - sign up and let us support you with your healthy 2022 transformation -

NEW YEAR NEW ME!?!? 🧐

The New Year is here and it often brings with it the inevitable mindset in some people of “new year, new me”

🧐What should that “new me” actually look like?
🧐Who decides?
🧐Should I be thin?
🧐Am I too thin?
🧐Should I have muscles or is that manly?
🧐Should a women be curvy?
🧐Should I wear make up?
🧐Is it okay to have wrinkles?

How many of you remember a time when your friend turns to you and says she hates her body?
Do you tell her she should? Do you tell her she’s gross? Do you remind her how good she used to be?
We BET YOU WOULD NEVER SAY those things to your friend. The thoughts wouldn’t even cross your mind. Yet somehow, you don’t give yourself the same treatment and that’s what NEEDS TO STOP. ⚠️

Body trends will come and go, but self-love doesn’t have to.😍

We often hear women saying that they want to be a stone or 3 stone lighter, like they were 10-15 years ago. That they want to be that person again and that they aren’t happy with what they see in the mirror. Isn’t it strange that we don’t wish to look forward but are happy in looking back?

Looking back at the known compared to dreaming or aiming for the “new” possibilities.

Start small, I know we all start with new years resolutions, and lets face it, not many of us actually stick to them for longer then 2 to 3 weeks (pretty much the same time on a diet) …

On our Apples&Pears 🍏🍐bootcamp, we aim to not just hit a weight loss number… that happens but it happens and continues to do so because we understand and determine the WHY….and knowing that WHY (whether it is because you are tired of feeling tired, or whether it is because you want to be there for your family for a long time to come) that WHY is going to keep you motivated and that WHY is going to lead you to the results that you want and the life and to that person you see in 5 years time.

Stop looking back, look forward. Daily small steps will take you to that final destination. If you need guidance of that PUSH to get going.

Join our bootcamp starting 10th January and lets work together to achieve YOUR goals.

✅"I wish I had more time.
✅I wish I could add that to my day.
✅If only we had an extra day in the weekend.
✅I don't have any time free.
✅I am too busy. I have so much to do already..."

Ever found yourself saying any of these reasons/excuses as to why you are always missing out on the opportunity to eat healthy, work out, take some time to do a self care activity?

We all too easily prioritise work, house chores, family obligations over what our body needs to function at an optimal healthy state.

If COVID has taught us one thing over the past two years, it is that we CAN ADAPT!

Some of us still work at home but have managed to work into our routine a workout, a walk, batch cooking, taking a longer lunch break, multi task chores with self care (put on a facemask whilst doing the ironing!)

There will still be a few of you, reading this, who want more time, NEED MORE time to feel as though they have a handle on everything they THINK is needed.

Have a look at the areas we try and focus on when creating new habits and healthier lifestyles.

Try and reflect on your day, week, month, lifestyle and see where you can make small changes to prioritise YOUR needs. 🙏

Say no to generic packages and being treated like a stereotypical person. Strive to put yourself first. Prioritise your health, needs and goals.
We were taught by our parents, and those of you who are parents hopefully teach your children this same important message, we are all different and so should be treated as individuals.

Fight to keep your identity and to make your health goals fit your lifestyle. That way we can achieve balance and make sustainable habits that impact our lives for years to come.
One way does not suit all 🥰

Are you an APPLE or a PEAR? 🍎🍐

In case you're new to the whole concept of Apples & Pears, here's a little explanation...

Your BODY SHAPE is a blueprint of your long term hormonal balance. The shape you are literally tells us what NUTRITION and EXERCISE you should be doing, to get the best results.

APPLE SHAPE 🍎 ...if you’re storing more body fat around your waist, back, abdomen, “love handles” this is all about the hormones INSULIN & CORTISOL. So you don’t handle sugars or starches well and will benefit from low carb nutrition. Your training needs to be high intensity to improve insulin sensitivity.

PEAR SHAPE 🍐 if your “problem areas” are your thighs, hips & bum then your shape is an indication of OESTROGEN dominance. Your nutrition needs to focus on improving liver and gut function to effectively metabolise and eliminate oestrogen. So high fibre, low/no alcohol, low/no dairy, slow-releasing whole grains and plenty of dark green leafy vegetables.

And there you have it! Please SHARE this post with someone you think would benefit from this knowledge 🙏🏼😁

If you'd like to learn a little more, our Apples & Pears Bootcamp is specifically designed for people who’ve STRUGGLED with shifting weight from their problem areas.

⬇️If you want to FEEL AMAZING in your clothes and LOOK GOOD NAKED AGAIN and you’re interested in finding out more, or even joining the next Apples & Pears Bootcamp to get AMAZING, LASTING RESULTS, simply comment “I’m ready to shape up!” In the comments below. 😁👍🏼⬇️

VEGAN THAI TOFU CURRY

Packed full of colour, flavour and veggies this is the perfect comforting dinner to share with family and friends. It will feed 4 for well under £10 and is extremely easy to make!

All you need to make this Thai Tofu Curry are these simple ingredients that you can get from most supermarkets.

Ingredients:
🧅1 red onion sliced
🧄2 garlic cloves crushed
▢Thumb sized piece of ginger finely chopped
▢1 lemongrass stalk (prep instructions below)
▢1 tsp ground coriander

Method:
- Heat a pan with olive oil or coconut oil and add in the onion, garlic, ginger, spices, red chilli and the lemongrass (chop the ends off bash with the side of your knife and slice down the middle from top to bottom, this releases all the flavour) and fry together for a couple mins.

- Now add the chopped tofu, broccoli, pepper and fry for a further minute
Add the chickpeas, coconut milk and Tamari and stir. Allow this to cook on a medium heat for around 8-10 minutes.

- Finally add the basil, mange tout and spinach to wilt down and it’s ready to serve (remove the lemon grass stalk before serving)

- Serve with brown rice, quinoa or just serve in a bowl on it’s own.

FAT DOES NOT = BODY FAT ✅Surprised? Read below to find out more ⬇️

-Carbohydrates: When you eat carbohydrates, your body can burn them for energy, store them as glycogen, burn them off as heat or turn them into fat.

-Protein: When you eat protein, your body can use protein for protein synthesis and many other metabolic purposes, burn it for energy or rarely, turn it into glucose or fat.

-Fat: When you eat fat, your body will either burn it for energy or store it as body fat.

We know that fat DOES contain more calories per gram than protein or carbohydrate and so it can be easy to overeat fat and therefore calories however it is important to note that fat actually increases satiety.

Medium chain triglycerides found in butter and coconut oil activate appetite-suppressing hormones and slow stomach emptying so you feel fuller for longer.

The issue we have today is that people are eating more processed foods.

🍔🍟🍕🍼🍪Junk food is specifically designed to be addictive, so it overrides that natural feeling of fullness to make you keep eating; cookies, pastries, cakes…Fat coupled with sugars and processed carbs is a deadly combination that influences your metabolism in a negative way. ICE CREAM really is the queen of fat and sugar combined which is why a spoonful tends to lead to a whole tub being consumed!

Naturally-occurring fat from whole foods will help satisfy your hunger needs and prevent you from overeating in a specific period.

Pay attention to your appetite and don’t overwhelm it with foods designed to be addictive and remember, total calorie intake does not automatically increase just because more of it comes from fat!

Magnesium, why is it vital for your health and wellbeing? 🌱

1- Magnesium is an important player in many of the bodies processes that allow you to take protein and convert it into the chemical that helps you to feel sleepy. 😴

2- Magnesium helps the body maintain levels of GABA (gamma-aminobutyric acid), a neurotransmitter that is responsible for “turning off” wakefulness.

3- It helps calm the nervous system down, helping it work more efficiently.

4- Magnesium also plays a role in muscle relaxation and nerve function. Magnesium is often a supplement used to help people with managing symptoms of restless leg syndrome.

➡️The recommended dietary allowance for magnesium when used for sleep or general health is 310 milligrams per day.

➡️Magnesium is not classified as a sleep aid, so you do not need to worry about what time to take it before bed. It won't knock you out but it can help to calm and relax you if taken one hour or so before you settle in for the evening.

🤓What happens if you go over the recommended dosage?
Some people may need more and others may be very sensitive to magnesium, the most likely result or too much magnesium or magnesium sensitivity will be an upset stomach. In fact, milk of magnesia can be loaded in magnesium which is why it is used as a laxative.

During our bootcamps, we teach women how to maximise their diet to ensure that they are NOURISHING and not RESTRICTING. Using recipes and templates, along with webinars on meal planning, any meal can be adapted to suit your individual body and also your personal preference! - There is no point eating food you take no enjoyment in consuming...... WHAT IS THE POINT!

Recent news stories have been focusing on climate change and plant based diets so we thought we would share with you a super quick and easy recipe which I love. I always encourage people to push their boundaries and try new recipes, foods and cuisines.

What is WILLPOWER? 🤔

According to most psychological scientists, willpower can be defined as: The ability to delay gratification, resisting short-term temptations in order to meet long-term goals. The capacity to override an unwanted thought, feeling, or impulse.

Lack of willpower isn’t the only reason you might fail to reach your goals....

Establish your motivation for change and set a clear goal. Second, you need to monitor your behavior toward that goal - our 30 Day Apples & Pears Bootamp will help you to better understand your goals and to clearly track your method and progress along the way - visibility is everything, this includes visibility of your nutrition and excercise; you could be surprised at how much willpower you have once you understand the journey you need to take to achieve your goal.

🌱If you're ready to live a more balanced life then our Apples & Pears bootcamp will be perfect for you.
