Once you tell someone that you follow a vegan lifestyle, the first question you will get is 'but where do you get your protein from?'. When I was vegetarian (so still eating eggs and dairy) I was never asked this question once, yet as soon as I went vegan it was all anyone would ask … Continue reading Best sources of vegan protein

Free Soul vegan protein bar
A big part of building muscle at the gym is ensuring you eat enough protein.

ASCIS London 10km run
I have always loved running. I started running when I was an early teen but really fell in love with it when I was about 16 years old. I have spent most of my life going through periods of running lots and then having quiet periods where I do no running at all. But last … Continue reading ASCIS London 10km run
Huel Thai Green Curry
And so the testing continues! I have to admit I am so far very impressed at the variety of meals that are on offer with Huel. When I think that most ready meal brands on the market have maybe two or three vegan options to rotate through, there are 10 at Huel! Obviously there are … Continue reading Huel Thai Green Curry
Huel chicken and mushroom ready meal

We had a big walking day the other day and in 30 degree heat (Celsius) it was not going to be an overly pleasant day. I therefore thought it best to bring some heavy duty snacks with me to keep me going throughout the day and thought that some protein bars would be a good … Continue reading PHD smart plant peanut butter and jelly protein bar

I have tried the PHD range of protein before and they remain one of my favourite ranges out there. The protein mixes well and the taste is very true to what flavour it claims to be on the front. Now that I am starting to work out more and focus on my macros, I decided … Continue reading PHD Smart protein mousse
Couch to 5k programme
I used to run all the time and I used to really enjoy it. But about 3 years ago it started to be more of a habit than an actual hobby. I was going to the gym to run for 25 minutes, purely so I could say that I had been for a run. My … Continue reading Couch to 5k programme
