About Me

Hi I’m Jess and I live on a farm in Oxfordshire, England. I live with my gorgeous other half Phil. We have two Cats Daisy & Molly and two house rabbits Trigger and Poppy and our wonderful dog Betty.

I’ve always struggled with my weight. The bulk of my weight went on during university. Living off potato waffles, chips, kebabs and beer! Before uni I was very sporty and in various sports teams so I was able to eat bigger potions- I needed to. But I stopped the exercise and carried on eating the big portions....

I’ve had many failed attempts at weight loss. I’d lose a stone and fall off the wagon and not get back on. However a few changes have happened in the past couple of years. I’ve been Veggie/Vegan for the past 4 years. I never thought I would be (as I was a massive meat lover) but watching Earthlings changed me overnight. So all of my recipes will be veggie and a big majority vegan.

April 2014 I turn 30. This year I need to make changes. I've already quit smoking (yay) and now I need to get my body healthy. We are entering the phase that we are starting to think about having kids and I won't be an unhealthy parent. I want to be able to run and play with my children. Oh and I don't even know if i'll be able to have kids yet- so I need to get baby ready!

I'm a spiritual person- I love meditation, yoga, crystals and all that jazz so expect some of that woo woo stuff :D

My overall main goal is to lose 8 stone- WOW that's a lot. I don't really want to think of that number all the time as it's just to overwhelming. So my first big goal is to lose 4 stone by the end of 2014. I'mm trying to set goals that are achievable. I'm also going to make some mini goals which i'll cover in a blog post.

So join me on this journey, it’s going to be a long one as I have a lot to lose. I could do with some friends to support me :)
