Since we have posted about the vision board we have been having so many conversations with people telling us how many things have come true on their vision [...]
It’s your workout, so own it!
Never mind what she’s doing to your left, or how she looks to your right. One persons hard workout, is another person’s recovery session. It doesn’t matter what anybody else is doing except you. Sure if you like what you see someone else doing, great, but don’t compare what you are doing to someone you [...]

I think I’m in love with my vision board!
To say I was sceptical about this vision board thing is an overstatement! Really? I put pictures on the things I want on a bit of board and they come true? Well my friend was insistent on my doing one, and now, it is in fact the love of my life. I cannot get enough [...]
Food myth number 1 – “my portions are too big!”
If you’re not eating crap, we’re pretty sure you’re portion sizes are not too big. So many people use the “portion size” excuse for why they are a little weightier than they might like. Well we hate to break it to ya, but it’s the smaller portions of bad things that sneak into your day [...]
The Fit Girl Monthly Challenge – January
Ladies, we were so proud of your commitment during the 12 Week Challenge and knew that some of you were wanting to have a gentle nudge (read swift boot) to launch you into 2012. So in the spirit of setting challenges, we thought we should invite you to set some goals or habits that contribute [...]
Goals and Resolutions…oh wait, Dreams too!
The dream bit is the fun part!
What I learned in 2011 about goal setting…
I spent the last 3 months of 2011 making myself accountable for my goals to my good friend Rosa, most of you will know here as Rocofit. Basically we meet once a week to set small goals to help ourselves reach our bigger goals and make sure that by meeting each week we are progressing. [...]
Right now, I’m mostly into big, pretty books…
So my Christmas list this year is rather same-y, it’s books, books and more books! And not in a literary way, more just, big and pretty! I love a coffee table book, particularly photography books or books about home design. One day I might train a little less and become a fabric designer…oh wait, I’ll [...]
How not to get your phone stolen
A rather unfortunate thing happened to me last week, my mobile got snatched clean outta my hands, when I was sitting at a bus stop, texting. I was aware that phone snatching was on the up recently, but was very much caught by surprise. It happened at 10am, at a full bus stop, in a [...]
“Spaces not faces” – a rugby application that is useful for crowd dodging.
Get through the shopping crowds right here!
I bought me some new shizz!
Every airport visit is a purchase opportunity, no? Well I found myself in Stansted airport a few weekends ago with some time to kill and what better way to kill time than to have a wee browse in the shops! So in I went to Kurt Geiger, only to see the little make up pouch [...]
Green Energy on my plate!
Who knew that one could actually feel energised from eating greens? I mean I’m all about a little spinach and broccoli love and have it daily, but much to my dismay, I needed more, a lot more. Why the sudden green obsession? Well I went on a little (by little I mean I could barely [...]
Who inspires me? You do!
So a few weeks ago I write about what motivates me. This week I was inspired. Inspired by you. I took a bunch of like minded girls for an NTC session at Nike Town London. They absolutely smashed the session. Nothing pleases me more than seeing a bunch of girls giving it their all in [...]
