Please tell me you know where this is from... otherwise this photo will make no sense 😂

There are just certain movies scenes that get stuck in your mind and you can’t unsee them. I watched this entire scene with my jaw on the floor and couldn’t stop laughing as Annie pretended she wasn’t ill and Lillian is in the middle of the street in a wedding dress. Megan wins in this scene though! Whenever someone says women aren’t funny, I just name this MUST SEE Bridesmaids scene. True friendship is formed when bodily functions go wrong 😅

Other iconic scenes that come to mind are Mean Girl’s “she doesn’t even go here”. So much so, that in school, we made a parody trailer and I was one of the girls in the crowd doing the trust fall. And let’s be honest, we’ve all pretended to be Rose on the end of that ship. Fun fact: The first song I knew all the words to was Celine Dion’s My Heart Will Go On.

Even just talking about these scenes makes me want to rewatch all of them and luckily I can with #SkyCinema from @SkyTV. They have so many must-see movies on there, I’m never going to get any work done 😂. I want to know, what’s a must-see scene that you can’t get out of your head? I want to build a list #SkyCinemaMUSTSEE

When I started getting back into an exercise in a

When I started getting back into an exercise in a body positive way, I had to be really careful to remove all goals.
I’m a really competitive person and so even if the goal wasn’t weight or calorie specific, and is instead performance based (like a goal of doing 20 pushups), I would override what my body is telling me to achieve the goal.
I would push through because I didn’t want to be seen as a “quitter” or lazy.
All things that are subtly part of diet culture.
So that’s why for me, the most liberating thing was to remove all numbers entirely. After all, when you were riding your bike as a kid, you didn’t set any goals.
When something is fun, you don’t need goals because the fact you are enjoying yourself is what propelled you to keep going!
I stopped tracking how long I had been exercising for.
I stopped tracking the distance.
I even stopped counting how many reps I was doing.

Years later, I sometimes introduce goals. Right now, I have a goal of walking 5k steps a day.
But at the beginning, this is what I had to do to form a completely different relationship with exercise.

I wanted my feed to look more like what I’ve bee

I wanted my feed to look more like what I’ve been looking like for the last 2 weeks or so, so hi! This is what I look like right now.
I’m going through a tough patch and it’s nothing I won’t get through.
Actually the greatest thing therapy and life coaching has given me is the fact that I know with every fibre of my being, I will survive this.
That and the fact I have absolute proof that the lower the low, the higher the high.
So watch out cause my next high is gonna be INCREDIBLE.
But for now, I’m knee deep into processing feelings.
You all know I’m an advocate of crying so I do my work during the day and I cry in the evenings.
I do both.
And sometimes one affects the other but that’s OK because I’m human and I have my limits too.
So anyway, here’s a selfie I took after I wrote this caption.
2020: The year of puffy eyes, messy hair and living in the same 5 comfy dresses
