For lunch Sophie enjoyed a bowl of gluten free prawn pasta with peas, goats cheese and tomatoes, which she said tasted ‘delicious’.
In the afternoon she ate two slices of rice bread – one topped with Vegemite and avocado, and the other with peanut butter, sliced bananas and a drizzle of honey.
Sophie also reminded others to drink at least two litres of water every day to stay hydrated.
Drinking 2L daily has been found to promote smooth digestion and enhance skin’s natural radiance while reducing the risk of headaches, hypertension and other stress-related pain.
‘Gotta stay hydrated girlies. You got to have your emotional support water bottle with you all the time,’ Sophia said in the video.

She said it wasn’t only her body that changed but she also experienced ‘immense mindset growth’
‘Rather than sharing the basic things I did to achieve losing weight, let me tell you about what I did for the last six months and five years,’ she wrote on Instagram.
‘For five years I’ve trained, dieted, rebounded, dieted again, rebounded again, competed in a bikini competition, rebounded again, dieted, rebounded, again and again… and again.
‘I’ve either always been ‘dieting’ or not, and when I wasn’t, I was so sick of it that I struggled to properly reverse and maintain that weight. The only consistency was that I showed up to the gym and got strong week after week.’
Sophie went on to explain six months prior she spent the ‘whole time sitting at maintenance/slight surplus feeling uncomfortable’ and started questioning her ‘identity, ability, life and self-worth’.
