QUICK & CONVENIENT MEALS!

This week I am loving the Macro Satay Tofu! I cooked it with all the left over veg in the fridge, added some noodles and had the perfect lunch ready to go!

Great source of plant-based protein and low in saturated fat.

Only takes 15 minutes (including chopping) so there are no excuses!

I hope you enjoy!

Sunday Market Haul 🥦🥭🍓🫐

Had the best morning exploring all the market stalls at and getting all the fresh and local produce for my meals and snacks this week!

The box of mangoes was the best $12 I have ever spent! Already cut up half and put them in the freezer and will have the rest with breakfast this week 🤩

Support local 💙

FUN FACT: Not all fitness trainers can do chin ups… 🙋🏽‍♀️

To be honest I find them so hard but that just motivates me to work even harder to build my strength and achieve my goal of completing 10 chin up’s (over hand grip).

Does it frustrate me that I can’t just do them, YES! Do I have little tantrums because they challenge me, YES! But that’s what’s going to make it so satisfying when I achieve my goal! I’ll make sure to keep you posted 👊🏼

Practice… PATIENCE… practice!

Hands up if you struggle with chin ups 🙋🏽‍♀️🙋🏽‍♀️

This month is National Mental Health Month 🦋 I’m going to take this opportunity to shine some light on the Gut-Brain Axis.

Have you ever experienced the feeling of butterflies in your tummy when you feel nervous? Or have you ever been in a situation where you felt ‘sick/nauseous’? There is a very good reason why we have these feelings. They are due to the Gut-Brain axis 🧠

The brain has a direct effect on the stomach and intestines and the gastrointestinal tract also has a direct effect on our brain and mental well-being.

The Gut-Brain Axis and the gut microbiome play a huge role in your health, well-being and behaviours. For example stress, anxiety and/or depression can actually alter our bowel habits and cause diarrhoea or constipation. We are very quick to blame the last meal or snack that we just ate for causing our sore or bloated tummies or the diarrhoea when in fact it could be due to stress/anxiety🧐

This bi-directional connection is evidence based and shows that a poor diet is directly related to our mental health and wellbeing.

However, we also know that a diet rich in fruits and vegetables, whole grains, lean protein and healthy fats has a very positive effect on our gut health and mental health 💙

Comment a 🧠 if you learnt something new!?
