You can’t keep being angry with that reflection in the mirror if you aren’t doing the things to change something about it.
I avoided mirrors. Would get dressed in the corner of my bedroom so I couldn’t catch a glance of my body. I buried my head in the sand, out of sight out of mind. Then I’d get these painstaking moments. Walking past a shop window, an unflattering photo taken that I’d try and refuse to be in. It would bring it back to reality, then I’d comfort eat to make myself feel better. The never ending hamster wheel.
Let this be your Thursday motivation that plan didn’t come easy to me, I’d spent years of burying my head in the sand, trying to embrace a fuller figure. But I was unhappy, I could do all the fancy make up under the sun, the posh shoes, the bags, none of it made me feel better, I was so unhappy inside and only I could change it.
It can feel scary, it can feel like your about to rip a plaster off, but nothing worth having comes without a bit of sacrifice! Draw inspiration from those around you, but do this for you.

Same woman. Same life. Different mindset.

The photo on the left was a time when I felt tired, uncomfortable, and disconnected from my own strength. The photo on the right? That’s what happens when you choose yourself. again and again. even on the hard days.

This transformation wasn’t about being perfect.
It was about showing up.
Choosing healthier habits.
Believing I deserved to feel strong, confident, and happy in my own body.

If you’re at the beginning of your journey, please remember:
Progress takes time. Consistency beats perfection. And the strongest thing a woman can do is refuse to give up on herself. 💪

Your future self is waiting. Start today.

If I wanted to be the BEST version of myself for this summer with my kids, here’s what I’d focus on:

1️⃣ I’d move daily, not for a smaller body, but for more energy.
Walks to the park. Bike rides. Swimming. Playing tag instead of watching from the bench. Movement that lets me keep up and say “yes” more.

2️⃣ I’d eat to feel good, not just to lose weight.
More protein. More water.
Less mindless snacking while finishing their leftovers.
Because energized mom > exhausted mom.

3️⃣ I’d protect my sleep like it matters (because it does).
Going to bed earlier so I have patience, not just productivity.
A rested mom shows up differently.

This isn’t about being the smallest version of me.
It’s about being the strongest, happiest, most present version.

The goal?
More memories.
More laughter.
More “watch this, Mum!” moments. ☀️💛

People will always have opinions about what you do in life… but the only opinion that truly matters is the one you have of yourself. Trust your journey, back your decisions, and stay true to who you are. If I had a pound for every person who said I’d fail or if I’d of believed I couldn’t have achieved the goals I wanted I wouldn’t be where I am now 🏆

What I’ve learnt since losing weight is that people will always have something to say, about how you did it, why you did it, or what they think you should’ve done differently. But unless you’ve carried the same shame, exhaustion, and frustration I did, your opinion means nothing. I did what I had to do to save myself, and I’ll never apologize for that.

There was a time I barely recognised myself.

Becoming a mum was the greatest gift of my life… but somewhere in the sleepless nights, the survival mode, and the constant giving, I lost me. I was overweight, exhausted, and carrying more than just physical weight. I carried shame every time I avoided a photo. I carried the quiet heartbreak of not feeling comfortable in my own skin while holding the most precious thing in my arms.

I’d sit at soft play watching instead of joining in. I’d second guess every outfit. I’d dread mirrors. I’d convince myself I was just “the mum now” — that my needs came last, that this was just how it was.

And the hardest part? It wasn’t just about how I looked. It was how I felt about myself. My confidence shrank. My patience was thinner. I said no to plans. I hid. I told myself stories about what I wasn’t capable of.

But here’s what I’ve learned, you can love your children deeply and still need to find your way back to yourself.

Now it’s half term. And instead of sitting on the sidelines, I’m running around soft play. I’m climbing, chasing, laughing, being present. I’m not pulling at my clothes. I’m not calculating angles. I’m not second guessing whether I should join in.

I feel strong. I feel capable. I feel free.

This isn’t just a physical transformation. It’s mental. It’s emotional. It’s the relationship I rebuilt with myself. It’s showing my child what self-respect, resilience and growth look like.

The difference isn’t just what you can see.
It’s what I feel.

And that changes everything 🤍

7-year check-in.

7 years ago I stood at the top of these stairs and took my “before” photos.
Same staircase. Same angle. 7 years later, and I’m still maintaining that loss.

So many people told me I wouldn’t keep it off.
Yet here I am. Still standing strong.

Proof that it is possible…with the right tools, the right support, and commitment to yourself.

Summer trip number two booked, but I’m deffo talking the Mr into a third 💪🏼😅
I cannot wait to be back into warm weather and running round after Louie on a sandy beach, can you believe that in 18 weeks we’ll be in June….
➡️ that means if you lost 1 pound per week you’d be down a stone and a half for that family holiday, 2 pounds you’ve lost 3 stone forever… sounds good doesn’t it!
➡️ My diaries open, get booked in with me, get that holiday booked and get grafting for summer 2026 🌸
P.S ya girl on the left would cry every single holiday, cry on the lead up trying on clothes, cry even more looking back at photos! It was s**t, I felt guilty almost and ungrateful, but I couldn’t shake it, and it was only me who could fix it! So I’ve been there, done that, felt all those feelings just like you, so do it now and don’t waste another summer!
