...things just got real!!!!

All registered for my first body building show in May 2026.

Back in October 2023, despite years of experience in the fitness industry, I was lost and in the worse shape of my life, both physically and mentally. I had physical health problems including having to have tumours removed during Covid, high blood pressure and crippling levels of self loathing. Top this off with the joys of going through the menopause and you get the picture.

Raising a disabled child with complex needs, parenting my older children through University and the challenges of young adulthood, fostering, teaching and battling my own mental health issues had left me feeling completely deflated and sitting at 102kg and a UK size 22 - the biggest I've ever been.

Something snapped when I looked at this photo and I realised I needed to change. 2 years on and I'm now officially in prep to compete in the 2026 season. I am now down to a UK size 8, full of energy and feeling like I've found me again at the grand age of 48.

Excited to see what happens and where this journey takes me, with the help of my inspirational coach Claire. Thank you as always to my amazing husband for continuing to support me all the way and my brilliant children and Higgiefit community for being the best support... bring on prep over Christmas 😂

If you can resonate with this or need a hand to get back on track then drop me a message and let's help you to get back to being you!

Brilliant session with this morning 💪

Chipping away at the end goal and working on building that lean muscle and dropping that body fat now.

I am happy with my physique at the moment, I'm feeling strong and this is now where its getting hard... pushing past the point that is a healthy and comfortable body, to do something more and compete.

It's been years in the making and I still have a long way to go... but the biggest change for me is feeling comfortable in my skin despite weight fluctuations and body fat fluctuations.

I love that my body is strong and capable as I approach 50 years of age. I can lift heavy and I am working to increase my bone strength with resistance training, particularly important as I'm going through the menopause.

Too many people glamourise skinny as a goal... skinny is not the aim and never has been.

Strong as an ox and muscle definition is my goal... having the ability to do my sports and run around with my grandchildren as I do now.

The hard work and consistency with my nuturion will continue. I want to push my body to do the body competition as it is a tough sport and I love a challenge.

Above all else though, health is the number one priority!
I am 48 years old, I have 5 children and 2 grandchildren... I need to keep showing up for them 💪🩵

If you need help on your fitness journey or a good sports massage, give me a shout!

I am sooooooooo bloody proud of our AMAZING daughter. She has overcome her disabilities again and achieved something brilliant.

Told by her specialist that she would struggle with cognitive functioning and sequential activities, but she smashed it and is now British National Champion in her para category 🥰👏🙏

Thank you so much to the amazing coaches at Samantha Jayne Carrington Darrell D Carrington Alice David for everything you do 🩵

We need to stand UNITED against racism, against hate and against those who would have us fighting each other through fear!

Sending peace and love to everyone, from this Arabic girl to you all 🩵🌎
