Combining protein + fibre together helps improve satiety (feeling fuller for longer)
Protein helps reduce hunger hormones, and fibre adds bulk and stabilises blood sugar. Together they help you feel fuller for longer and reduce mindless snacking later in the day.

These are some examples of snacks high in both protein + fibre to include throughout the day to help reduce cravings.

✅ Soy yoghurt with soy protein crisps (protein) + chia seeds & fruit (fibre)
✅ Berry smoothie - protein powder & soy milk (protein) fruit & chia seeds (fibre)
✅ Wholegrain crackers (fibre) with edamame (protein) & avocado (fibre+ healthy fats)
✅ Choc protein chia pudding - Chia & fruit (fibre) soy milk + soy yoghurt (protein)
✅Fava beans + nuts (protein + fibre)
✅Roasted edamame and seeded bar (protein + fibre)

Make 2026 the year you shift your mindset from extreme ➡ sustainable.

If what you’re doing only works when life is calm, you’re highly motivated and everything goes perfectly, it’s not sustainable. Real progress comes from habits you can repeat on your normal days.

Some mindset shifts to focus on 👇

Drop the all or nothing approach. You don’t need to be perfect to make progress.
✅ Stop trying to survive off coffee and a salad all day. Under eating usually backfires with cravings, low energy and overeating later.
✅ Don’t assume you’ve “ruined” your day because you ate something higher calorie. You really haven’t. It’s the spiral afterwards that makes the biggest difference, not the food itself.
✅ Enjoy your food
✅ Don’t wait for life to get less busy (it won’t). Focus on building habits that fit your schedule, not the other way around.

Your progress won’t come from one perfect day, it’ll come from what you do most days.

Healthy habits to focus on this week so you can nail your health & nutrition goals 📋 💬

✅ adding colour to your meals (fruit or veg) aim for at least 1/2 plate at each meal
✅ drink a full bottle of water before lunch
✅ schedule in a time for your movement / exercise and stick to it. Minimum of 20-30 mins daily
✅ prep your breakfast
✅ pair your carbs with a protein & healthy fat
✅ get 7-8 hours of sleep

Once you get the basics figured out, its a lot easier to add on new habits

New Year’s resolution reminders. You don’t need to have your whole life planned out in the first week of Jan.

If your plan only works when you’re highly motivated, it’s probably not sustainable.

Overhauling your diet, cutting foods, and setting unrealistic goals can feel motivating short-term, but it’s rarely what leads to real, lasting results.

What actually works:
• focusing on 1–3 habits at a time
• setting action based goals (not outcome based ones)
• keeping meals simple and repeatable
• prioritising consistency over perfection

Small changes done consistently will always beat an all or nothing approach.

If you’re constantly hungry at night, craving sugar, feeling “out of control” on weekends, or bloated by the afternoon… it’s probably not willpower. These are 4 mistakes I commonly see and all of them are fixable with small, consistent changes.

The low FODMAP diet isn’t a forever plan, it’s a short term strategy designed to reduce symptoms and help you identify your personal triggers

If you’ve been stuck in the elimination phase for months (or even years) this is your sign to take the next step

Why staying in elimination too long is not ideal:

👉🏻 It limits your fibre and prebiotic intake, which can
reduce beneficial gut bacteria

👉🏻 It increases risk of nutritional deficiencies, especially those on a plant based diet (iron, calcium, zinc etc)

👉🏻It increases food related stress and anxiety

👉🏻It can make your gut more sensitive over time?

👉🏻You never truly learn which foods you tolerate

Once your symptoms settle, the goal is to reintroduce and discover which FODMAP groups you react to so you can create a balanced, personalised plan that supports your gut long term

A list of common plant foods that contain 30g protein. This is useful for anyone trying to increase their protein intake. It’s pretty easy to see from this list which foods are more “efficient” than others.

My favourite go-to’s for optimising protein intake are soy based products like tofu, TVP soy protein crisps and seitan.
