What have I been up to?


Surprise!!

Hey team! A handy little app from the ABC to give you your 2.5k radius for exercising during lockdown. We put in Adelaide, but you can pop in your suburb and see how far you can go (while maintaining social distancing and SA Health requirements, with people in your household of course!)🤸‍♀️⛹🧘‍♀️🏊‍♀️

I can never look at runners the same again. And now, neither can you 😂 -Laura

Nothing like sessions for kids, made by kids!!! So looking forward to training one of my younger clients this afternoon!

I loooooove this!!!!!

We had an event that I needed an outfit for and told Rev, “I gotta go shopping.”⁣
“Why do you have to go shopping mommy?”⁣
“Well baby, because I’m bigger now and my clothes don’t fit. You know, like how you and Mack always need to new clothes cause you get bigger, too.”⁣
*gasp* “𝗬𝗢𝗨 𝗚𝗥𝗘𝗪 𝗨𝗣 𝗠𝗢𝗠𝗠𝗬!!” ⁣
⁣
Yes. Yes I did Rev 🥰⁣
⁣
I’ve been ordering clothes that fit me, but not a ton since I was hoping to get back into my pre baby clothes. But, at 18 months postpartum, I’m still 2 sizes bigger than I was before I had Mack. And the truth is, I’m not the same me as I was before him. It’s just not at all a priority for me to focus on my weight or my size. At least not the size of my body.⁣

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝗶𝘇𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗺𝘆 𝗹𝗶𝗳𝗲? 𝗬𝗲𝗮𝗵, 𝗜 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗲 𝗮 𝗯𝗶𝗴 𝗮𝘀 𝗵𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗽𝗼𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗹𝗲!⁣
⁣
Will I lose the rest of the “baby weight?” Maybe. But I don’t know if or when. What I do know is that the me right now doesn’t need a closet full of clothes that no longer fit me.⁣
⁣
So, I went through and purged. I own these items- THEY 👏🏻DONT 👏🏻OWN 👏🏻ME👏🏻⁣ ⁣
I get to decide how I want to feel. And I wanna celebrate the hell out of growing up- physically AND MENTALLY. ⁣
⁣
Getting (or staying) bigger doesn’t have to be full of shame. We can actually choose to make it full of joy. ⁣
⁣
Growing is good. More life lived is wonderful. ⁣
⁣
You gotta a closet full of not-quite-right clothes?! LOOK AT YOU GROWING UP 👏🏻👏🏻

Watch out Thursday nighters….my lil Miss has some plans for the session! 6:15pm Thurs, see you there!!!!

What a spectacular day in Adelaide. Quick coffee stop out in the sunshine after a short bike ride & gym sesh! Fitness & coffee always help to get me into the studying groove. Now back to the screen for me 💻

Did you know that I use my gym for therapy assistant work? Did you know that your physiotherapist can refer you to me if you would like further movement sessions & you have NDIS funding? I collaborate with any age and any capacity, developing a movement plan that’s fun, functional & best of all, my gym is accessible. Heres a peek at what I set up for one of my new clients-an obstacle course!!!

Meet Roxanne. She’s a Groodle that likes long walks along the beach & playing balloon tennis. A welcoming presence at the group fitness sessions, of course along with her owner, Jen.
