Welcome to the Sweat 'n' Sass blog; a place for active living, healthiness, wellbeing and that little bit of kick-butt attitude. Motivation and encouragement is what I seek to provide you, as well as total belief in you to achieve your goals. I hope reading this fills you with confidence and determination.

I aim to connect with, inspire and motivate as many of you as possible. I'm always available to message so feel free to get in touch.

Sweat 'n' Sass believes a healthy body needs a health mind. Our bodies can't work on their own, they need our mental health to be in top shape to be able to support the body to achieve its goals.

Sweat 'n' Sass believes that smiling is our most powerful tool and that laughter isn't just a good medicine, but an awesome abdominal workout too!

Sweat 'n' Sass believes that if you can't pronounce the ingredients on the label, then perhaps you could do without eating it. We should be eating REAL FOOD. Think about what you're eating and ask how many hands did it have to pass through to get to you? The fewer the better.

Sweat 'n' Sass believes that what you think is what you become and we should think of ourselves as goal achieving, PB smashing, healthy, positive, energetic people.

Sweat 'n' Sass believes success can be measured by how many times you smiled today.

While I am very passionate about healthy and active living, I am not (yet!) a qualified trainer or nutritionist, so I request that you direct your questions to a trained professional who can give you the right advice specific to you and your goals. As always, please consult your GP before undertaking a new fitness program.

My Favourite Meal of the Day | Breakfast | via kyliefrost This was actually my second breakfast of the day. You see, I wake up at 5:10am every weekday and eat my slice of peanut butter, honey and flax seed on brown toasted bread somewhere between 5:45am and 6:30am (depending on how late I am running). Out the door before 7am it is a long 90 minutes before I have finished commuting to work on the London Underground. By this time I feel starved, my metabolism is raging and I’m in need of something substantial to keep me ticking over.  Just before 9am it is time for my second breakfast and that’s exactly what this bowl of natural yogurt and muesli is. For me it is a huge treat because it tastes delicious and there is enough dried fruit and protein for the slow release energy I need to keep me working for hours!  But to keep my metabolism ticking I eat my apple at about 10:30am - which is also my alternative to the mid morning caffeine hit my work colleagues enjoy.  And that’s me done until Lunch time at 1:00pm.
