For years I thought eating less around training was the answer 🙃

Less before runs. Less after. Ignore the hunger. Push through the cravings.

Spoiler: it made everything worse.

I was exhausted by 2pm, obsessing over food by 3pm, and eating everything in sight by 8pm — then waking up and doing it all again.

It wasn’t a willpower problem. It was a fuelling problem.

When I finally started eating to support my training instead of punishing myself for it, everything shifted.

✨ Energy that actually lasted
✨ Cravings that stopped
✨ Running felt good again

And now I get to help my clients feel the same way.

💬 Here’s what they’ve been saying lately 🥹

If any part of this sounds familiar — the restriction, second-guessing, hunger and cravings… this is your sign.

Comment FUEL below and I’ll send you the details on how we can work together. 👇

Are you making this BIG fueling mistake⁉️

A common problem I’m seeing more and more with my female athletes is a lack of prioritising recovery nutrition.

I get it. The last thing you feel like doing is force-feeding yourself a big bowl of oats after a hard session.

But high intensity (i.e tempo sessions) or long, endurance sessions >90mins are the ones that matter and is where you get the biggest adaptions from.

And delaying your recovery nutrition is only going to worsen:

👉🏼Immune function
👉🏼Glycogen synthesis
👉🏼Muscle recovery

This means a weakened immune system, inability to back it up with following day sessions and prolonged muscle soreness.

So have a think about WHY you’re delaying your recovery nutrition.

Is it because you purely didn’t bring anything to have to eat afterwards?

Or it because you have a low appetite and don’t eat until you are STARVING..

So, think about what you can do to navigate this.

👉🏼Bring a protein shake and dried fruit with you for an easy, on the go option
👉🏼Meal prep some extra meals to cover for weekends
👉🏼Have some ready to eat options in the freezer/cupboard for when you are low in energy

So back over to you, how is your recovery nutrition on the weekends?

See how my client lost 3kg in 3 weeks in the Fuel For Her Program 👀

Di is an endurance athlete who was training consistently but just couldn’t shift the weight.

She had tried doing low carb diets in the past and would lose weight but just wouldn’t find it sustainable.

She has a complex history of PCOS and Perimenopause and food intolerances whilst also battling thyroid issues and new onset of AF.

Her diet initially wasn’t “bad”

She was eating regular meals, including pre-training carb snacks and having healthy takeaway.

But it wasn’t strategic.

1. She wasn’t periodising her carbs around training

2. Her meals lacked adequate protein — contributing to increased appetite and cravings

3. She was holding back with her recovery nutrition after long runs on the weekend

So here’s what we did.

We designed her meals to have more carbs in the later parts of the day to fuel her PM training

We need corporated high protein into all meals (at least 40g per meal)

We created a good plan for convenient, on the go recovery options for weekend training.

And the result? ⤵️

👉🏼3kg wt loss in 3 weeks
👉🏼Waist (Natural Point) down 2cm
👉🏼Waist (Belly) down 2cm
👉🏼Glutes down 1cm

And eating more then ever 🙌🏼

If you’re stuck with fueling for performance (without underfueling), let’s work on that together and put a plan in place that’s tailored exactly for you.

DM me “FUEL” and let’s get started 🍌

Have you had a blood test by your GP and you’re told that everything is ‘normal’.. but you feel like sh*t?

I’ve had multiple clients over the past week who have had this same thing happen to them.

Something I always ask of them is ‘can I take a look’ and without a doubt, there’s usually something on there that wasn’t explained or they were’t aware of.

Client A: Prior bariatric surgery. Perimenopausal. Told everything “looked fine”.. but clearly it wasn’t.

Consistently dropping B12 levels.
LOW folate levels!
Borderline Ferritin (and decreasing in time)

👉🏼We started her on a bariatric multivitamin, iron supplement and folate supplement

Client B: Surgical onset of menopause. Struggling with fatigue.

Increasing cholesterol levels the past few years (now in high range).
High triglycerides. High BMI.
= super high cardiovascular risk

👉🏼We discussed GLP 1 medication and strategies to reduce cholesterol.

So, if you’re feeling like you’re being dismissed and needing to advocate WAY too hard to have things checked, it’s time for a better GP.

I would love to hear about your experiences with GP’s👇🏼

Also, if you LOVE your GP, add their details below so other people can find them too!

A wild concept that I just can’t seem to shake ATM is the importance of being ‘proactive’ when it comes to sports nutrition.

What I mean by this is not solely relying on hunger signals to dictate when to eat.

Which may sound weird, because this is the way we are taught to eat.. “eat when you’re hungry and stop when you’re full”

But when it comes to sports nutrition, these rules don’t necessarily apply.

👉🏼We STILL need to be fueling early morning sessions.

👉🏼We STILL need to be getting in recovery nutrition after a hard session, even if you feel hot and nauseated.

👉🏼We STILL need to be regularly fueling our long runs.. even if you feel “fine”.

There is nothing really intuative about it at all.

And I’m a pretty intuative person.. I trust my gut feeling and follow star signs 🦄💫🌊

But this is where fueling with strategy and intention become front-centre.

So have a think to yourself..

How can I be more PROACTIVE rather than REACTIVE when it comes to my nutrition?

❓Do you need to start taking in some nutrition before your earlier training sessions?

❓Do you need to intentionally eat sooner after a hard session.. (rather than waiting until you’re starving later on?)

❓Should you be taking gels with you on your long runs (even if you feel “fine”)

👉🏼 Start small and pick ONE thing today you need to be more PROACTIVE with to fuel your training.

Let me know how you go!

Are your Sundays morning currently taken over by long training sessions? Yeah, same 🙋‍♀️

If you’re training for long periods (even in Zone), it’s really important to be paying special attention to your fueling.

Yes, you may not be burning heaps of carbs (mostly fat oxidation in Zone 2), HOWEVER..

The thing that matters most here is the total of calories you are burning and long training sessions = a large energy expenditure!

And you may be thinking.. cool, I want to shift a couple of kilos..

👉🏼But here’s the problem.

Large energy deficits lead to physiological changes.

↑ Cortisol
↑ GI permeability
↓ Leptin
↓ Blood glucose levels

This leads to worsened recovery/immunity, increased cravings and snacking and low energy levels.

The best way lose weight and fuel well isn’t about fasted or under-fuelled sessions.

It’s about intentional fueling, which is something I teach my clients.

If you’re wanting a tailored plan exactly like this, DM me “FUEL” and let’s work together on your big goals 🥰

I remember the days when I used to absolutely dread Mondays.

The thought of needing to get up and take myself to a role at the hospital filled me with anxiety and dread.

Although I learnt a lot… I knew it wasn’t for me.

It didn’t feel aligned and I felt like an imposter and out of place.

I knew I was meant for more and I wanted to help people in a meaningful way.

Which is why I started working in private practice, so I could help people not just in the short term, although to help and be alongside them in their journey to achieving long term goals.

And this is an exactly what I do now.

There is nothing better than seeing my female athletes get fitter, stronger and get their confidence back.

So thankyou -you to my prior, existing (and future) clients for trusting me and supporting me on this wild journey 🥹

I can now say that I eagerly look forward to my Mondays and look forward to sharing this journey with you as the business grows too✨

Want to hear about how you can actually fuel well for your next endurance event? 🥣🍌

On the poddy this week, I have my beautiful client Cecilia, talk about her fueling journey for the Lake Taupo Ironman in New Zealand.

In the podcast, we discuss: 🎧

- The reason why Cecilia decided to take on an Ironman
- Cecilia’s fueling mistakes and her turning point to getting support
- What we put into place in the lead up to fuel her training
- A run-through of her race day nutrition plan and some of her key challenges

You can hit your daily calories and still wreck your hormones…

In female endurance athletes, underfueling within the day — even if total intake is “enough” — is linked to:

↓ Estrogen
↓ Resting metabolic rate
↑ Cortisol
↓ T3 (thyroid hormone)

More hours in an energy deficit = more hormonal disruption.

The takeaway? It’s not just how much you eat — it’s when you eat.

If you’re skipping fuel around training and “making up for it” later, your body still experiences stress.

👉 Fuel before, during, and after training to support hormones, recovery, and performance.

Fuel smarter, not just more ✌🏼
