A little bit late with posting this, but better late than never! This shows what a busy month September was for me, but probably the best month of the year so far! I went to Egpyt for a holiday which was incredible, I turned 21, and to top it all off I also started my… Continue reading Foodie Finds – September 2018
One thing that I have learnt since I started taking my fitness seriously, is to never underestimate the importance of having a goal to focus on. Time after time I would aimlessly wander into the gym and do the same thing every day (cardio, of course) and wonder why I wasn't seeing the results that… Continue reading The importance of setting goals
What a fab month July has been (although slightly worrying that I'm halfway through my uni summer break already).

Also, it is gluten-free, vegan, and a great source of… Continue reading Edamame Pasta Dish

April saw sunny weather, my first cheerleading competition, and lots and lots of uni deadlines. But, I still managed to find lots of goodies for you this month...definitely, a chocolatey theme going on this month! ❤ 1) Tesco Dark Chocolate and Peanut Bar This makes the perfect on-the-go snack and is also a great post-workout… Continue reading Foodie Finds – April 2018
Yes, food really does affect your mood. When you think about what effects your mental health, the typical answers are stress, self-esteem, and relationship issues, to name but a few, however, we often underestimate the impact that food has on our mental health. When you consider the science behind it and the growing evidence that food… Continue reading The Impact of Diet on Mental Health
Here are my foodie finds for the month of March. For me, March signifies the start of spring and better weather (not to mention the chocci easter eggs which I hope you're all enjoying this weekend). 1) White chocolate whey balls These are from Bulkpowders and are amazing!
