Yes — you read that right. A cake company wrote a book about losing weight.
It sounds almost ironic, doesn’t it? But if you know my story, it actually makes perfect sense.
Before I started baking healthy cakes in London, I spent years helping people change their lives from the inside out — through fitness, nutrition, and a real understanding of health. I was a personal trainer for over seven years, both in London and abroad. During that time, I helped more than a hundred people transform their bodies and habits, coached them through tough workouts, and taught them how to eat in a way that actually felt good.
I’ve always believed that health isn’t about restriction — it’s about balance. And that’s the philosophy behind everything I’ve done, whether it was training clients, preparing food, or writing my book, Beyond Weight.
From Dumbbells to Dough Mixers
My journey didn’t start in a bakery — it started in gyms, sports fields, and kitchens.
After years of training clients, I opened my first business: a healthy meal delivery service. Every morning, my team and I cooked and delivered hundreds of meals across the city — fresh, balanced, and made for busy people who still cared about eating well.
Later, I opened a coffee shop where we served good coffee and healthy cakes — made from natural ingredients, gluten-free flours, and refined sugar-free recipes. It was here that I began experimenting with what eventually became our signature line of vegan cakes London customers now love.
When I eventually moved to London full-time and launched my bakery, the goal was simple: to bring something different that doesn’t have to be the enemy of health. You can enjoy something sweet and still feel good about it. You don’t have to choose between your goals and your pleasures.
The Surprising Link Between Cakes and a Healthy Lifestyle
People often ask me, “How can someone who makes cakes write a book about losing weight?”
The answer is: because I’ve lived both sides.
I’ve trained, fought, and competed. I’ve done crazy endurance challenges, from long-distance runs to martial arts competitions. I’ve cooked for people who wanted to lose weight, gain muscle, or simply feel better in their own skin.
And I’ve also seen how most diets fail — not because people lack discipline, but because they lack the right mindset.
Beyond Weight isn’t a diet book. It’s about learning to think differently about health — to find freedom from the constant noise of fitness fads, and to reconnect with your body in a simple, sustainable way. It’s a guide for people who want to feel strong, capable, and confident — without obsessing over calories or cutting out joy.
What the Book Is Really About
In Beyond Weight, I share lessons from nearly a decade of working in health and fitness — everything from how to build better habits to how to stay consistent when motivation disappears. It’s the book I wish I could have handed to every client I ever trained.
It covers topics like:
- How to break the cycle of “on and off” diets
- How to manage stress and energy better
- Why discipline beats motivation every time
- How to eat in a way that nourishes both your body and your mind
- And most importantly — how to stay consistent, even when life gets messy.
You’ll find a blend of science, practical advice, and stories from real experience — not theory. It’s not about quick fixes. It’s about real change.
Where It All Comes Together
Now, I run a bakery that makes vegan bakes and gluten free birthday cake options for people who want to enjoy something sweet without the guilt. But the heart of what I do hasn’t changed — I still help people live healthier, happier lives.
Writing Beyond Weight felt like the natural next step. It connects all the pieces: my years of training, cooking, and building businesses around wellness.
So yes, I might sell cakes — but they’re the kind that remind people that health doesn’t have to mean giving up the things you love. You can eat well, stay fit, and enjoy life fully.
If that message resonates with you, you can find Beyond Weight at Yourtrainer.uk — a book for anyone ready to move beyond diets and discover what true, lasting health really means.
