Tonight I’m laying in the bath in my sparkly clean bathroom feeling a mixture of feelings. I’m wondering why on earth it’s taken me this long to ACT (Accept and Commit) After years of living with a chonic illness I thought I had my life pretty much sorted. I have so many little tricks to […]
I know my worrying and anxiousness is unnecessary but at the minute I’m finding it hard to think rationally! It all started 18 months ago when I went for my MRI, this was probably the 8th or 9th one I’d had so was confident it would be fine. I’d never really liked them but never […]
It doesn’t matter what the question is… food prep is the answer. I am too tired to cook healthily after work… Food prep is the answer. I want to lose weight… Food prep. I need to stick to my macros… Food prep… I need to watch my portion sizes… Food prep. I live on my […]
Just over a week ago I had a rushed neurology appointment! I had my appointment letter dated to remind me to ring up and book my appointment which usually takes about 4-6 weeks! I hadn’t really mentally prepared myself for it knowing I had a while to think about which disease modifying therapy I was […]
Today’s blog is a bit of history regarding my fitness journey and explains why I decided to start a female body building program. My main reason is because I want to be strong enough to cope with whatever my MS might throw at me, it’s not about becoming a body builder but more about building […]

So much has happened since my last post and it seems I spoke far to soon. I went downhill pretty fast after my second shot and by my third shot I was desperate for somebody to tell me I needed to stop! I haven’t been able to get my head around writing about it (or […]
I’ve been holding back from writing this blog post because I didn’t want to jinx anything or speak to soon. Nine days ago, on a sunny Friday afternoon I met with my MS specialist nurse to have training and administer my first shot of Plegridy. Not only was this the first dose of this particular […]
Last week was a fab but ridiculously busy week. I had things planned every single day which left no time for the dull everyday chores that I seem able to forget with ease. Housework… Left… Food shop… Left… Washing… Left… My usual weekly food prep… Left! This would’ve been fine if a) I didn’t use […]
I spent all last week wondering why I hadn’t received the call from Bupa yet to arrange delivery of my plegridy. I was completely taken by surprise when a call came at 8.30pm last night with no caller ID! Usually I don’t answer them if I’m not expecting a call but my niece is in […]
MS, Me and My Moments!
