34 DAYS until I step onto a bikini fitness competition stage 🍑🙈 and I still have around 18kg I’d ultimately like to lose.

I started this 165 days out, 30kg overweight.

I’m a mum of two. And for YEARS I’ve said:

“I’m going to lose the weight.”

These shorts? I used to wear them travelling with just a little bikini top.

AND I STILL DIDN’T THINK I LOOKED GOOD ENOUGH.

What an idiot 😂😭

Fast forward to motherhood and when I started this challenge, I couldn’t even get the bloody things over my bum.

And now?

WE’RE GETTING SOMEWHERE 👀🍑 can’t breath in them yet but im in.

I’ve lost weight before. I’ve done the diets.
Forced myself to do cardio.
Lost the weight.
Put it back on.

So this time I wanted to do something different.

Instead of just changing my body, I wanted to change how I actually LIVE.

The walking.
The protein.
The whole foods.
The strength training.

And keep doing it until it becomes normal.

Because something rather ridiculous happened today.

I WAS HAVING FUN IN THE GYM 😂

The music was banging.

I was feeling my little biceps.

Actually ENJOYING my workout.

WHO EVEN AM I?!

The woman who used to sit on the sofa eating crap and dreading exercise is now having a little party between sets 😂💪🏻

And THAT is the kind of progress I’m most excited about.

Don’t get me wrong.

I’ve still got a LOT of fat I’d like to lose.

And in 34 days I have to get on a stage IN A BIKINI.

Absolutely terrifying 😭

But I’m starting to become someone who actually enjoys doing the things that will get me there.

And hopefully keep me there.

34 days left.

Am I going to be bikini stage ready?

I genuinely don’t bloody know.

But we’re going to find out 😂🍑

Autumn days, beautiful places. ✨🍂

Yesterday someone at the gym asked me if I miss being as lean as I used to be.

I said sure, sometimes I do! Looking back, I gotta admit, having a shredded 6 pack was pretty cool 😜

BUT, the way I approach fitness today is VERY different , especially since becoming a mom.

I used to be all about constantly pushing myself to look a certain way.

Now my priorities have shifted a lot.

Do I still care about how I look? OF COURSE!
But having shredded abs 24/7 is no longer my definition of being fit. I am still training hard because I LOVE lifting, enjoying food, spending time with my little family, and not letting fitness consume my life.

Because YES, you can work toward your dream physique, get stronger, and feel amazing in your body WITHOUT putting the rest of your life on hold!

And I’d LOVE to help you do just that!

I’m starting one last challenge this year, and if you’re ready to get stronger, feel more confident, and find YOUR balance, come join me! We start NEXT MONDAY!

Comment STRONG and I’ll send you the details and the link to join!

The new Porsche Mission S concept made an appearance in New York City yesterday.

Honestly, I really like how this thing looks. Excited to see where Porsche takes it!
