"You don't have to be great to start, but you have to start to be great."

About Me:

I successfully lost 42lbs back in 2013 through a combination of eating better and running. At this point, the heaviest I had ever been was 249lbs. I was still working on my weight loss journey when I became pregnant in 2014 and due to previous health issues with pregnancies that resulted in miscarriages I was advised by my doctor to stop running. I continued to eat properly until my gorgeous daughter was born in Dec 2014. I unfortunately had to have an emergency c-section so I was unable to exercise for 12 weeks. By this point I had just become lazy with my food and even lazier when it came to exercise. I put on a lot of weight over the next couple of years and then in 2017 when my husband and I split up I pretty much just ate my feelings. I am now almost 50lbslbs heavier than I was at the beginning of my weight-loss journey in the first place. My daughter turned 6 years and I struggle to keep up with her. She has so much energy and is always asking if we can go out and do stuff but I just don't have the energy to do it. This is my biggest reason for wanting to get in shape - I want to be a Mama that she is proud of and can have fun with.

Why I want to get in shape:

I want to be healthy! I want to be able to keep up with my daughter. I want to feel better about myself. I want to live a long life. Myself - If I'm not doing this for me then who the hell am I doing it for?

My Inspirations

  • My daughter
  • My favourite PJ's (yes that's quite sad but I LOVE PJ's)
