A lot of uber eats and 🥂 these last few days...

I get asked a lot about how to approach food on holidays — And it really just depends on personal preference.

For me, holidays are about enjoying myself but also being mindful to not completely over do it so I still feel good.

And hey, calories on holiday don't count right? 😜

This life turned out nothing like I had planned... But I honestly wouldn't change it for the world.

Addiction changes everything. Some make it back — Some don't.

It was certainly one hell of a fight. But to be where I am today, I would live through those same struggles 100x over.

Today is quite a significant date in my ongoing journey that I would like to acknowledge, appreciate and share.

After I got sober I spiralled into a deep depression and started using prescription pain killers and junk food as a coping mechanism to put myself to sleep as I just didn’t want to be awake.

My health declined even more so than it already had after the 10 months of active addiction. I felt so weak, unfit and just overall unwell, mentally and physically. I spent the most part of the following 6 months in my bed either sleeping, crying or eating junk food which obviously perpetuated the situation and as a result I gained 20 kgs.

I knew exactly what I had to do but I was stuck in a rut that just felt impossible to get out of. I moped around feeling sorry for myself until I finally decided I couldn’t keep living like this. I had hit my second rock bottom.

I knew my body was 100% my own responsibility and only I could do som**hing about it. So I did.

On the 4th of October 2023 I made a conscious decision to put my best effort into restoring my health and finding myself again. Today marks exactly 2 years from that date.

I can’t believe what I have been able to achieve in the last 2 years and I am forever grateful for the life I live now and for the person I am today.

I went from not wanting to wake up every morning to now feeling the best I have ever felt. I genuinely look forward to waking up at 5AM, going to CrossFit most mornings, training at the gym, prioritising what is meaningful to me like nourishing my body with good quality food, travelling, spending time with my dogs and seeing the progress I can make each day, both mentally and physically. And of course, still remaining sober.

Seeing how I have rebuilt myself from rock bottom to where I am today in just 2 years honestly still feels surreal. I am beyond proud of myself and I am not ashamed to say that.

It was hard work to get to where I am today, and sometimes it still is hard but I always tell myself ‘you need to chase it as hard as you chased your addiction’ and it gets me through.

So cheers to 2 years of living a meaningful life again ❤️

Being on the front cover of a magazine has always been a childhood dream of mine ever since I started collecting the Total Girl mags when I was just a little kid.

Never in a million years did I think it would actually happen — Let alone happen because I have overcome a m**h addiction. Like what 🤯 It still feels surreal to say that out loud.

It wasn’t an easy thing to share so publicly… But, without realising it at the time, sharing my story has been a pivotal step in my ongoing recovery.

I no longer have this big secret I need to hide and keep to myself. I no longer hold the weight, shame and worry that people are going to find out and judge me for it.

And the positive response I have received has been overwhelmingly refreshing. I want to thank you all for being so kind and accepting of me and my story.

It feels like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

From all the endless messages to the support from close family and friends, my CrossFit fam, coworkers, the random phone calls and emails, people coming up to me on the street saying hi or shaking my hand, the new doors and opportunities, the people that I have met through this and everyone continuing to support my business — Thank you, nothing goes unnoticed.

And of course a huge thank you to for giving me this opportunity to share my story and to have chosen me to be on the front cover.

It still doesn’t feel real.

I really hope that one day I can make a true impact and change lives because that’s all I have ever wanted to do, is to help people.

This has helped me in more ways than you could ever imagine. So thank you again from the bottom of my heart ❤️

Being able to train and be active is a privilege, not a punishment.

You should be celebrating and taking full advantage of what your body can do...

Because there is someone in a hospital bed right now wishing they could walk again.

My top tips for navigating a successful fat loss phase 🤗

1️⃣ Nutrition should be your main fat loss tool. Training will of course contribute to the overall picture but you can easily undo your efforts by the food and drink you put in your mouth. Focusing on your nutrition is 🔑

2️⃣ Ensure you are properly hydrated by adding a good quality electrolyte to your water. Aim for 3 litres of water per day 💧

3️⃣ Find a way of training and move in a way that you actually enjoy. Try to shift your mindset from training to look a certain way to training for your performance and what your body is capable of doing. The aesthetic results will follow. 🤸‍♀️

4️⃣ Take a good quality creatine daily - It is a total game changer.

5️⃣ Eat the right combinations of macronutrients with every meal to support your blood sugar levels. This has a direct affect on your energy, hunger, cravings and sleep. It won't determine fat loss but it will determine how you experience your fat loss phase, in turn affecting how sustainable it will also be in the long term.

6️⃣ Focus on the quality of foods you eat alongside being in a calorie deficit. A 2000 calorie wholefoods diet is not the same as a 2000 calorie ultra-processed diet. 🥑🍬

7️⃣ Find your staples and go to meals. It is important to find what works best for you, not what works for that random influencer or your best friend or that coworker who has last 20kg. It's about you.

8️⃣ Be realistic with yourself. It only feels harder and more fustrating than it needs to be when your expectations don't match a realistic reality. Get the basics downpacked first. Focus on the variable that will give you the most benefit in return. Once you have that nailed, add another variable into the picture, like a compounding type of approach.

9️⃣ Be mindful of other areas of your health too. How do you expect your body to be on your side if your hormones are out of whack or if your in a constant state of stress or have terrible sleep every night? 💤

1️⃣0️⃣ Invest in a nutritionist to help, guide and support you. This will literally take all of the guess work out. It is a no brainer if you ask me!
