Our Mission

Nutrition plays an essential role in sports and athletic performance, particularly when considering lifelong health. Managing this can feel overwhelming, especially alongside a busy job and the conflicting nutrition information found online...

I’m here to provide clear, practical, and achievable advice that fits around your – or your child’s – lifestyle, goals, and sporting commitments.

Qualifications: BSc Hons Dietetics (University of Plymouth), PgCert Sports and Exercise Nutrition (Leeds Beckett University), HCPC registered dietitian, British Dietetic Association member, 2 years Paediatric NHS experience.

🥾A weekend in the Brecon Beacons🥾

Back home after a gorg weekend getting some steps in with gorg surroundings 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿⛰️ (& ready to sleep for 12 hours 😴😂)

Walks we did:
- Llyn y Fan Fach
- Pen Y Fan for sunrise 🌅
- Henrhyd Falls

Of course there were plenty of snacks along the way - I feel people often underestimate the amount of energy you use when hiking (particularly up a mountain) 🏔️

You’re body still needs plentyyyyy of carbs to keep your energy stores high & fuel your legs to keep powering you on 🙌🏼 - ever noticed you’re feeling a little shaky at the end of a hike? You should’ve probably had a few more sweets 🍬😅

Some of the snacks we took along with us to keep us well fueled⚡️
- cereal bars 🥣
- sweets 🍬
- fruit 🍇
- pain au chocolat 🍫
- crisps 🥔
- Lucosade 🧃

These helped
⚡️keep energy stores high
💪🏼 supported muscle fueling and recovery
⚖️ support electrolyte balance
🥰 add nice little sweet treats on the way round

So, pick your snacks & get out for a wander 🥾🙌🏼

🫶🏼 2025 recap 🫶🏼

Honestly felt this year had been a bit rubbish until I went to make this, it’s actually had a lot of fun times, a lot of hard work, and a lot of progress - despite December writing me off & a few tears (and a lot of coffee ☕️) along the way 😅🥲

I’ve learnt a lot and feeling ready to go into 2026 with a focus on helping athletes fuel their bodies to perform at their best & get the best from their training 🫡⚡️🙌🏼

2026 I’m coming for you 👋🏼✅

🤍 Sunday reset - dietitian style 🤍

A gentle reminder that a Sunday reset doesn’t have to be strict, aesthetic, or all-or-nothing 🤍

For me, it’s about doing a few small things that make the week ahead feel calmer and more supported — moving my body in a way that aids recovery, prepping something nourishing, and taking a bit of time to plan so I’m not making every decision on the fly.

It’s not about being perfect.
It’s about taking some pressure off ✨future me ✨

If you’ve been feeling run down or overwhelmed lately, this is your sign to keep it simple and kind to yourself

🩵 Nov 25 🩵

#dietitian #sportsdietitian #november2025

Just looking out for them 🤷🏼‍♀️😅 - I can’t help who I am 😂

No underfueling on my watch 🕵️‍♀️👀 and you bet I will be encourage my gals to have their pre-workout snacks & stay fuelled ✅ (may also need a post-workout coffee & cake in this instance 🫶🏼)

Disclaimer: you probs don’t need a pre-workout snack for your hot girl walk (depending how long it is) butttt if you want to I’m not gonna stop u (any excuse for a snack 😍🍰🍌)

📣 Things I’d call you out on as a sports dietitian if I wasn’t afraid to hurt your feelings (with the best intentions 🫶🏼)

If there’s one thing I always am - it’s honest ✅😅😂

🍔 You’re scared of eating UPFs but you’re not eating enough and your body, hormones, and gut health are suffering as a result
↪️ UPFs can be included as part of a balanced diet to support sufficient energy intake - eating too little consistently is going to be way more harmful than any UPF you can consume…

💊 You’re obsessed with taking 500 different supplements but don’t even take the ones you need
↪️ okay maybe 500 is a stretch but perhaps if you spent that money on getting an actual registered nutrition professional (hey 👋🏼) and finding out what supplements you should be taking - you’d actually save money ✅ and know you’re getting what you need ✅

🥯 You’re scared of white carbs for fear of harming your gut health yet feel like you’re going to 💩 yourself everytime you time you go for a run
↪️ having high fibre foods prior to training isn’t going to end well 💩 quickly digested carbs are an essential part of an athletes diet 🏃‍♀️

💪🏼 You’re obsessed with hitting your protein goals but you’re not getting enough energy or carbs to perform well during you’re training sessions
↪️ Yes protein is an important part of our diets for recovery and adaptation, but if you’re not having enough energy or carbs - you’re not going to see the results you want or be able to push yourself during training sessions to support progressive overload (essential for our body to adapt)

👋🏼 A little bit about me…

It’s been a while and there are a few new faces round here (welcome!) so let me give a brief introduction to myself & why I do what I do 🫶🏼

First of I love a bit of gym, running, yoga, and spending time with my gorg friends 🤍 (when I do get free time 😅)

I started this page way back in first year of uni (2020 😮) during covid sharing recipes & nutrition tips with no aim - just a bit of fun (and distraction from doing uni work 😂)

Once I’d graduated, the page became dietitianellen to reflect my new status 💁🏼‍♀️😮‍💨 and the page shifted towards nutrition tips alongside sharing the odd recipe 🥘

While in my final year of uni, I completed my first half marathon 🏃‍♀️🙌🏼 however lost 5kg due to under-eating, and had no fueling strategy (other than scranning a few jelly babies) which resulted in me hitting ‘the wall’ and coming short of my goal time by 6 minutes ⏳🥲 - despite being an almost qualified dietitian, I knew nothing about Sports Nutrition other than what I’d learnt from Instagram 🤷🏼‍♀️

Since graduating, I’ve completed my PgCert in Sports Nutrition and really solidified the power of nutrition in this area. Adequate fueling isn’t an added bonus within sports, it’s essential - even for those who consider themselves amateur athletes 🫡

Under-nourishment can have long term consequences on our health and performance - I’ve learnt that the hard way, and I want to help others to prevent this happening to them ❤️

Join me on my journey & hopefully I can help you on yours 🏅

Wanting to hit PBs in 2026? Let’s make it happen ✅⬇️

Training hard but not getting the results you want? You’re likely missing the nutrition piece of the puzzle 🧩 Get your nutrition right now to support your training and start 2026 with those PBs 🙌🏼⌛️

1. Carbs 🍞
The bodies main fuel ⛽️
Have them before a workout to boost performance 😮‍💨
Have them after to refuel the tank & be able to hit that next session quicker & stronger 🙌🏼

2. Energy ⚡️
If you’re constantly tired, sore, or hitting a wall with your progress - it’s likely you’re not eating enough 🪫
Sufficient energy is needed to support adaptation, recovery, and progress 📈

3. Protein 💪🏼
Most people get enough protein - but their timings are off ⏰
Protein is best consumed in 20-30g portions every 3-4 hours for optimum absorption & utilisation by the body - meaning better muscle growth ✅
Spread your protein out between meals and snacks (which also supports your energy intake 🤝)

4. Vitamins & minerals 🌈
Often dismissed, these are the little cogs that keep the big cogs turning ⚙️
Getting your fruit and veg in as well as calcium an iron sources is essential to support adaptation & immune function 🦠
And don’t forget your vitamin D supplements in winter ❄️

As with all nutrition tips - consistency & intention beats perfection 🫡 don’t feel you need to change your diet overnight 🌙 small changes that are sustainable for you and your lifestyle are the best way forward 🙌🏼✅
