I would by lying though if I didn't tell you that I am so shocked by … Continue reading THE VEGAN DIARIES: Wine isn’t vegan?
LISTS: 10 reasons to watch What the Health
I love a documentary, generally I'm pretty nosey so anything from men living in the desert, marrying lots of women, having a ton of children to get closer to god (seriously Channel 4 where do you find these people) to food documentaries, and everything between. This morning I finally got round to watching What the Health, … Continue reading LISTS: 10 reasons to watch What the Health
SMOOTHIE: Smoothie bowl on the move
Smoothies bowls are everywhere at the minute, I think that every third post on instagram is a beautiful looking smoothie bowl.

THE FITNESS DIARIES: A bit of a rant about fashion rules
Every now and again, I need a reminder of how far I've come. Previously I've mentioned that I measure my progress by weight and photographs and sometimes I need to look back at where I was years ago, when I thought I was happy because I refused to admit that I wasn't. I remember the … Continue reading THE FITNESS DIARIES: A bit of a rant about fashion rules

SMOOTHIE: Matcha, matcha, matcha
I have a confession to make, I hate matcha. There, I've said it.

THE VEGAN DIARIES: Let’s talk about periods
Ok so people don't like to talk about periods but periods are a thing that half of the planet need to deal with every four weeks. Before I went vegan I never really thought about what tampons are made of, how they're made, if the chemicals that are used are tested on animals or if … Continue reading THE VEGAN DIARIES: Let’s talk about periods
THE FITNESS DIARIES: What the hell do I wear?
This question haunts me even now! What am I supposed to wear to work out? Are people judging me because I'm not wearing adidas?

If someone is looking … Continue reading THE FITNESS DIARIES: What the hell do I wear?
