Q&A

 

 

 

 

 

1. HOW DID YOUR PERSONAL HEALTH JOURNEY BEGIN?

To be perfectly honest, I haven’t always worried about what I eat. This has evolved as I get older, and my body has changed and I need to watch a little more what I put into it now. It certainly helped living with my trainer, who has taught me so much about healthy eating.

2. WHO OR WHAT INSPIRES YOU?

With social media so prolific these days, I am constantly inspired by people on Twitter and Instagram. Your day is bombarded with healthy, gorgeous women! How could it not inspire you. And, as I said earlier my trainer Alexa is a great motivation.

 

3. YOUR DAY ON A PLATE?

Breakfast: Oats made with coconut water and raspberries.

Morning Snack:  - Protein bar + Green apple

Lunch: Tuna salad

Afternoon Snacks: Green juice + Handful of nuts

Dinner: Chicken stir fry with brown rice

After dinner treat: some dark chocolate

 

4: FAVOURITE WAY TO GET MOVING?

I remind myself how good I am going to feel after 🙂

 

5. THREE THINGS YOU CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT

  1. My family

  2. My friends

  3. Chocolate!

6. YOUR SECRET VICE

Lollies and chocolate are my weaknesses! Who doesn’t have that weakness! I try not to have them in the house, as I know I cannot resist if they are there.

 

7. TOP SONG ON YOUR PLAYLIST

Jarryd James - Do you remember.

 

8. YOUR MANTRA

Be true to yourself and treat all people equally!
