Hi everyone! I know I haven’t written for a while – I was a bit busy when my cousin (whose wedding I went to in the States earlier this year) decided to spend her honeymoon here and then I got sick again – its possibly the flu but definitely not COVID-19. In the meantime, I’ve…

Hello readers! I hope you are all well and getting through this super cold winter we are shivering through in Melbourne. It’s been a really disjointed few months for me, and the trip to Singapore and the States feels like an eternity ago. As you know, I had an undiagnosed (kept testing negative) case of…

Hello readers! I’m still finalizing my in between posts – things have been a little hectic lately, but today I celebrate another lap around the sun, and it’s been a hell of a year. I’m 36 this year (have never understood the whole lying about your age thing, maybe because my ever practical mumma bear…

Hello readers! Long time no see! (as my mum likes to say). Unfortunately, after almost three years of avoiding COVID-19, our whole family fell prey to it after mum had a visit to hospital. Except ME. I got the flu, because I’m special like that, and to be honest, I think I would have rather…

Hello everyone! I hope you’re all keeping well. Things are a bit hairy globally at the moment, so I’m really trying to stick to the mantra of ‘focus on what you can control’. So, some good news on the forefront. At least, I think it’s good news, but it’s good for me unless things go…

Hello readers! Let me start off by wishing you all a very belatedly Merry Christmas; Happy Holidays and a safe and prosperous New Year. It has, unfortunately, not been the best end to 2021 as I had hoped. I last wrote in October, where I was navigating the ‘I had a reaction to the Pfizer’…

Hello reader! I know it’s been a while – we have been in lockdown since mid-July and I’ve been a little too depressed to write. Lockdown this year has been harder than last year as we have had to get through them without government support. They keep telling us that we are in their thoughts…

Hello readers! We are going to pivot a little bit away from my ramblings about fitness and food and move into an area that is still stigmatised despite the increased openness from public, political and influential figures: mental health. Not just mental health as a whole, but what we believe to be the trigger for…

Hello readers! First off, a sincere apology to Sarah, whom I did promise this article up sooner, but with the extended lockdown in Victoria. I hit a mental health wall and my brain refused to compute (more about this in a seperate post) so instead of forcing it to comply, I just took a week…

Hello readers! I am, again, at the halfway mark of my second round of the Aston Rx 28 day program. Things have been a little slower this time round re weight loss – i.e 5kg down in two weeks as opposed to about 6.2kg last time, but there has been a marked difference in the…

Hello readers! I am super sorry how long my post challenge update has taken me, and you would certainly be forgiven for thinking that I had passed out somewhere along the line and was forgotten about. However, good news! Not only did I make it through the challenge, I did the majority of the classes…

Hello again everyone! I realise I made the title sound very Harry Potter, but I promise you, this is less interesting then the tale of a boy wizard. Post snap lockdown in Melbourne, we are back on the KX40 challenge wagon. I did miss three classes because of the lockdown, but the first class back…
