The fight is now 3 weeks away and I cannot wait!
I will be going on Soccer AM this Saturday 4th Sept as a Soccerette, make sure you all tune in to see what my Party Trick is! I am sure some of you might be able to guess though haha
GX Poker Magazine have done a brilliant feature this Month about the fight so make sure you pick that up from your Local newsagents.
Models Fight Night will be feature on the lads mag website this coming Month and I will give you all the heads up when the info is up and running.
Ex Gladiator Jet, Diane Youdale interviewed me about the fight for her Radio show on BBC Radio Tees. Diane is lovely and very easy to speak to :)
Training is still going very well :) Gary has been putting me through my paces, and I have also been doing a lot of Circuit Training outside of my sessions too in preparation for the fight.
I have also had some great mental training from Sports Psychologist Niyc Pidgeon. Thanks for all your help :) You can read her blog here http://www.niycpidge.blogspot.com/

Not long to go!
Things are getting hectic! I have a meeting today to arrange having a documentary style show filmed in the lead up to the fight and also the fight night itself.
I am also having the Fight Night filmed for a DVD, so this mean all those who can't make it to the Fight can see what they missed and for those who did make it and want to have something to remember the night by. There will also be some extra bits and pieces on the DVD too such as interviews with the girls and behind the scenes footage.
We have quite a lot of articles going in the press over the next few weeks, I will let you know about that as they are released.
Its group training tonight and lots of sparring to be had :) Here's a video from my training yesterday

Well not partying is easier than I thought it would ever be, even though all my friends are out I don't feel bothered about missing out on a few weekends because of how much I am enjoying the training. I would have not said that a Year ago! I would have opted to party over exercise any day. Besides, I know I am off to Ibiza straight after the fight :) Closing parties here I come.

6 Weeks 1 Day :)
Oh my Days! I just want the fight night to hurry up! I've been having a lot of sleepless nights since I started training in Jan because I am so excited. I literally cannot switch off on a night for combination's and things I've learned going through my head. I love it but so tired some days. Hope it's not going to get worse and effect my training!
Anyway here's today's workout and food :)
No supplements because I forgot to bring them with me. Grrr!
Woke up and completed 15 mins of Skipping
Drank 1 Pint of warm water with half lemon Juice
Breakfast
1 Bowl of porridge, 1 Banana made with Soya Milk
At about Midday I did press up's and Tricep dips.
1 Protien bar
Drank 1 pint of warm water with half Lemon Juice
Lunch
3 Veggie sausages, Broccoli, Cauliflower, Carrots
4pm Went to sparring with Lisa. Very good session, even sacked off the head guards at one point! I hate those damn things, for one, the blows to the head still hurt and they mess up your hair! Nightmare.
Drank protein shake. Yak! But a must.
6.30pm Went to the Gym
Trained arms and core
1 Protein bar
15 Mins Skipping then zzzzzzz
Goodnight World xx

Went to the Gym and worked my arms - biceps, triceps and shoulders, did 45 mins.
Snack

Well it's been quite some time since my last post! A lot has happened since the good old Miss Adventure days, but it's all good :)
A lot of you know I have started a Models Fight Night, the aim of which is to raise as much money as possible to send Children in permanent care on the holiday of a life time!
I have been asked by a lot of people how my training and diet's going so I thought I'd let you all know on here :)
