How confident do you feel about your nutrition right now?

Do you feel like youโ€™ve got it pretty dialled inโ€ฆ or are you a bit confused with all the conflicting advice out there? ๐Ÿคฏ

So many people I speak to say things like:
โ€ข โ€œI donโ€™t actually know what I should be eating.โ€
โ€ข โ€œI try to eat healthy but it never seems consistent.โ€
โ€ข โ€œThereโ€™s so much information online, itโ€™s hard to know whatโ€™s right.โ€

๐Ÿ’ฏThatโ€™s exactly why nutrition coaching can be so helpful โ€” itโ€™s not about strict diets or cutting out everything you enjoy.

โœ…Itโ€™s about simple habits, guidance, and accountability that fit your lifestyle.

Iโ€™m just a little bit curious ๐Ÿงโ€ฆ

๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸปIf you had to rate your nutrition from 1โ€“10

(1 = no idea what Iโ€™m doing, 10 = completely dialled in)โ€ฆ

What number would you give yourself? ๐Ÿ‘‡

๐Ÿ‘‡ WHY HAVENโ€™T I SHARED CLIENT TRANSFORMATION PICS?
There are so many positive & amazing things happening with my clients behind the scenes that you donโ€™t get to see, that doesnโ€™t mean to say itโ€™s not happening.

I know many followers like to see the visuals or the proof if you like,
But, not everyone wants to share their weight loss transformation pictures & I completely get that.
So youโ€™ve got another pic of me instead!! ๐Ÿ™„๐Ÿ˜‚

In fact, Iโ€™ve had 4 ladies complete their journeys with me in the last few weeks.
All of which have chosen not to openly share their before & afters.
I totally respect their decisions.
I would never make anyone do anything they didnโ€™t want to.
As long as they are happy with what theyโ€™ve achieved overall thatโ€™s all that matters.

For some, the journey is deeply personal.
For others, itโ€™s not about the before-and-after photos, but about how they feelโ€”healthier, stronger, more confident. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿ’ƒ

Sharing photos can also come with pressure, comparison, or unwanted opinions.
And letโ€™s be honest, no one owes the world proof of their progress.

Sometimes the biggest transformation isnโ€™t visible on the outside at allโ€”itโ€™s the mindset, the discipline, the self-love, and the peace that come from taking care of yourself. ๐ŸŒธ
Hence my choice of photo today.

So whether you post your pictures proudly, or keep them tucked away as your private & proud reminderโ€”youโ€™re valid.
Your journey matters.
Your growth is real. โค๏ธ

๐Ÿ‘‰ What do you thinkโ€”do you like seeing weight loss transformation pics, or do you prefer celebrating the non-physical wins?

๐Ÿ’œ International Womenโ€™s Day 2026 ๐Ÿ’œ
As a female business owner, this weekend is a great reminder of how powerful it is when women support women.
Running a business takes resilience, determination, and a lot of passion โ€” and itโ€™s incredible to see so many women doing just that.

Iโ€™m proud to be part of a community of strong, hardworking women, some of which are building their businesses too.
And who too are setting goals, and lifting others up along the way.

๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ On Sunday we celebrate the achievements of women everywhere โ€” and continue pushing for opportunity, equality, and success for the next generation.

My thoughts too go out to all those innocent men, women & children who are currently caught up in war zones & wish for peace across the world ๐ŸŒ,

๐Ÿ™Finally, a huge thanks to all the ladies who have worked with me, are working with me & who may work with me in whatever guise - thank you for your incredible support.

Happy International Womenโ€™s Weekend!

I feel so grateful today reflecting on one incredible woman Iโ€™ve had the privilege to work with, for a year now in the gym.

Despite living with Fibromyalgia โ€” a condition that brings daily pain, fatigue, and challenges most people will never fully see or understand,
along with a number of health challenges, she never complains or never misses a session.

There are mornings when her body aches before the day even begins.
Days when energy is low. Moments when progress feels slower than sheโ€™d like.
But hereโ€™s what stands outโ€ฆ

She shows up. ๐Ÿ’ช

๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸปNot because itโ€™s easy.
๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸปNot because she feels amazing every time.
โœ…But because she refuses to let her condition define her.

Weโ€™ve had to adapt.
Weโ€™ve had to listen to her body.
Weโ€™ve adjusted intensity, celebrated small wins, and focused on consistency over perfection. Some sessions are strong and powerful.
Others are gentle and steady.
Every single one counts.

What inspires me most isnโ€™t the weight she lifts โ€” itโ€™s the resilience she carries.

Living with fibromyalgia means navigating invisible battles.
And yet she continues to choose strength.
She continues to choose herself.
She continues to prove that progress isnโ€™t about being pain-free โ€” itโ€™s about being persistent.

To anyone facing their own silent struggle: your pace is still progress.
Your effort still matters.
And your courage does not go unnoticed.

Strength doesnโ€™t always roar.
Sometimes it shows up quietly, ties its trainers, and gets to work.

So proud to be part of her journey. ๐ŸŒŸ

โœจ What Does โ€œToning Upโ€ Actually Mean? โœจโ€œ I want to tone up Lisa.โ€I hear this such a lot but what does it actually mean?...

โœจ What Does โ€œToning Upโ€ Actually Mean? โœจ

โ€œ I want to tone up Lisa.โ€
I hear this such a lot but what does it actually mean?
Well, people usually mean they want to look a bit more defined, possibly look leaner & feel strongerโ€”but what does that actually involve?

๐Ÿ‘‰ โ€œToningโ€ isnโ€™t a special kind of workout.
Itโ€™s really just a mix of two things:
1. Building muscle
2. Losing body fat

Thereโ€™s no such thing as a โ€œtoningโ€ exercise. To get that defined, sculpted look, you need resistance training (yes, weights!) to build muscle, and a healthy diet/cardio plan to reduce fat so those muscles show.

๐Ÿ’ช So instead of โ€œtoning,โ€ think:
โ€ข Strength training
โ€ข Progressive overload
โ€ข Consistency
โ€ข Smart nutrition

No, lifting weights wonโ€™t make you bulkyโ€”itโ€™s one of the BEST ways to get that fit, strong, lean look many people are after when they say โ€œtone.โ€

So when you next hear yourself saying tone, donโ€™t forget you need to build some muscle too as well as losing some or any body fat.
Work on whatโ€™s really happening beneath the surface!

Being brutally honest, Iโ€™ve procrastinated quite a bit for a number of reasons, over posting this pic.

So, please donโ€™t perceive this as being โ€œHey! look at me, I love myselfโ€
As it really isnโ€™t like that, I promise.

I kinda just wanted to share with you, how I lacked self confidence going into this photo shoot.
Even though it was my second time.
๐Ÿ’ฏTotally outside of my comfort zone!

You may remember me saying from my first shoot that this was the first time Iโ€™ve got my legs out in this environment.

Why?

Well, because like many of you lovelies out there you probably have bits of your body that you donโ€™t like either or you possibly donโ€™t even like yourself.

But letโ€™s stop โœ‹ right there.
Do you know what?

I actually appreciate what these legs are capable of!
Iโ€™m lucky to still blimminโ€™ have them & touch wood ๐Ÿชต they are 55 now & in a good, strong condition enabling me to do so much.
And getting stronger month by month.

Iโ€™ve worked so hard and in preparation for this shoot.
I get this look isnโ€™t for everyone, this isnโ€™t what this is about.

Whatโ€™s important is that youโ€™re happy with who you are, inside & out. ๐Ÿฅฐ

Learning to appreciate & love โค๏ธ yourself.
By that I mean be confident, value you, your health , your body, your life.

Work with someone who can bring all of that including that inner you out,

Surround yourself with people who support you, make you feel happy & who are positive.

So for me this is what happened here.
I worked with a lovely photographer who gave me the confidence to be me & bring out the inner Lisa again.
A Lisa who I didnโ€™t even know existed until I did my very first shoot in 2024.

If youโ€™d like to be more confident, be a healthier, fitter & stronger you.
Iโ€™d love to help you & help you bring the best out of you.

Happy Valentineโ€™s Day โค๏ธ

Protein is trending hard right nowโ€”protein yogurts, cereals, pittas, bagels coffee, even desserts.
To be honest itโ€™s endless.

To that point protein is everywhere right now ๐Ÿ‘€

๐Ÿ‘‰๐ŸปBut hereโ€™s the question:
Are we focusing on protein so much that weโ€™re forgetting fiber, plants, and overall balance?

Most people actually need:

โœ…Adequate protein - typically 1g per kg of body weight but will vary on level & type of activity.
โœ…A decent amount of Starchy Carbohydrates
โœ…More fiber
โœ…More whole foods
โœ…Less ultra-processed โ€œhigh-proteinโ€ snacks.
โ€ผ๏ธThe average consumption in a British diet is actually higher than the recommendation for dietary protein ( see above ๐Ÿ‘†)

Are you consciously adding proteinโ€ฆ or just buying whatever says โ€œhigh proteinโ€ on the label?

If you are drawn towards those high protein labels thereโ€™s a high probability itโ€™s costing you more for the privilege = potentially taking advantage of the consumer ๐Ÿ˜ข.AND maybe high in sugar or fats & some other stuff - so check!

Iโ€™d love to know your thoughtsโ€ฆplease drop a comment below ๐Ÿ‘‡
