Reality check

^{During the pandemic, I fell into some unhealthy habits. I spent a lot of time sitting on the sofa, snacking on biscuits and barely moving. I’d put the Joe Wicks workouts on, but instead of joining in, I’d just sit and watch them.}

^{My dad took a photo of my sister and I sitting on the sofa - I was holding a cake in one hand and a bottle of Prosecco in the other. I was genuinely shocked by how much weight I’d gained - I hardly recognised myself, and it made me feel really sad.}

^{I felt like I had lost myself. I was eating too many snacks, moving very little, and the weight had piled on. I didn't recognise myself and I’d lost my sparkle.  I knew that I needed to get that back - not just for me - but for my daughter too.}
