A gentle reminder: you don’t need to punish yourself for enjoying the holidays. 🧁🥂✨

The most effective “reset” isn’t restriction — it’s getting back to basics and returning to routine.

Breakfast is the most commonly skipped or under-fuelled meal. 😭 And even when it IS eaten, research shows breakfast is often lower in protein and total energy than recommended for performance and appetite regulation.

Skimping on breakfast can show up as: • low energy mid-morning 🥱  • increased hunger and cravings later on 🍭  • low / flat training sessions 😪  • slower recovery (especially if you’ve trained before) ❤️‍🩹

HOW to build a fuelling breakfast👇🏻 Aim to include:
• Complex Carbohydrates – wholegrain bread, bagels, oats, cereal, high-carb fruit • Protein – eggs, yoghurt, milk, cottage cheese, protein powder • Fats – avocado, nut butter, seeds, nuts, oils • Colour – fruit and/or vegetables

These are super common breakfasts — and a few small upgrades can be the difference between a 3pm energy slump or feeling steady, satisfied and in control through the day.

Confused about pre training fuel? Here’s 27 sports dietitian-approved ideas. 💡  
One of the biggest mistakes I see — even in well-trained athletes — is either overthinking pre-training food or under-fuelling because of fear of gut issues…

Here’s a simple framework that works for any sport:

⏰ 3–4 hours before training / racing → Balanced main meal Priorities: high carb, moderate protein, lower fat & fibre Guide: 1–2 g/kg carbohydrate

⏰ 1–2 hours before → Snack-style fuel Priorities: easy-to-digest carbs, low fat & fibre Guide: 0.5–1 g/kg carbohydrate

⏰ 30–60 minutes before → Light carb top-up Priorities: simple carbs Guide: 0.5-1g/kg (or 15-30g) carbohydrates

Reminders: • There’s no “perfect” pre-training food — tolerated fuel is best • Prone to nerves? Lower fibre + simpler carbs help • Practise fuelling in training — not on race day • Under-fuelling often shows up as early fatigue, flat sessions, and slower recovery.

A few gentle reminders from your dietitian if body image feels loud today 💭
It’s a feeling, not a fact. And your body isn’t the enemy.

Save this for the days you’re spiralling and need to zoom out and put things back into perspective. ✨

I’ve got chu 🤍

✨SAVE for later✨ ... What if I told you: 3pm sugar cravings aren’t a willpower issue… 
They’re quite often an under-fuelling issue.

And it usually starts much earlier in the day.
Common culprits 👇🏻 🥣 A small breakfast (& low in protein) ⏰ Skipping meals and snacks 😪 Missing a key nutrient (complex carbs, protein, fats or fibre – all important for stabilising blood sugars) ☕️ Running on coffee instead of actual food

These factors cause your blood sugars to dip significantly by the afternoon, and your brain responds by craving the fastest fuel possible: simple sugar ⛽️

The good news? You can easily prevent – and calm – those cravings with better daytime fuelling AND the right afternoon snack.

How to make an energising, satisfying snack: ✅ Protein + fibre + healthy fats ✨This combo keeps blood sugar more stable, reduces cravings, and gives you steady energy.

If you’re stuck on afternoon tea ideas, save this post for simple, dietitian-approved snacks that will keep you feeling in control and still hit the spot 💚

Fat loss should never cost you your performance, health, or sanity. ✨
Just a few things you’ll never hear from me. 🙏🏻

Despite 2025 throwing me ADHD, coeliac, endo and a big sign to “slow tf down”… I’m honestly so grateful for this little life ✨ (and how could I not be when it’s filled with beach days, high-vibe friends, aligned work, epic clients, and my four-legged bestie?!) xx

If you think dietitians just hand out meal plans and macros… think again 👀

Every client I work with has a completely different story — training load, gut health, energy, lifestyle, even how they sit on the toilet (yep, that matters too 💩).

My job is to look at the whole picture and create strategies that are simple, sustainable, and will work in real life — not just on paper.

If you’re ready for a more individualised approach, I’ve got two coaching spots left 💫
