Dating when overweight.

By blogadmin | August 27, 2008

>online casinoстоловеmach-zehnderuestions about it, dating when overweight and dating as a single parent are not the easiest things in the world to do…..but hey…..you gotta get out there. Well that’s my opinion anyway.

I didn’t want to get back into dating, after the last fiasco, because no matter what is said, you can’t help but think that your weight is the issue. Yet, I don’t want to try and find a partner on a website for men that like bigger woman such as BBW because I would like to find someone that likes me for me – not because of the size of my arse. Any ideas anyone?

The Weight Loss Merry-go-round.

By blogadmin | August 25, 2008

I feel like screaming from the tree tops – ‘here we go round the mulberry bush….’ It’s the story of weight loss for everyone. You go well, you go crap…..and these few months have been crap. I refuse point blank to let it stop me from continuing this journey though – it’s far too important. So, I’ll just have to get over it I guess. One of the worst moments of my life was seeing photos of myself at my daughters birthday party last year – well it’s her birthday again in 8 weeks and I won’t reach my goal in that time (unless I get some can’t eat enything illness – which I don’t want), and part of me feels SOSOSOSO bad about that, but the other part says ‘hey, you’ve lost weight, you’re getting your issues with food etc sorted out and you feel better – so stop complaining!!!’.
I will stop complaining because there are worse issues in the world than being overweight and I’m working on it. Besides, I can get closer in the next few weeks.

The Jon Gabriel Method

By blogadmin | August 23, 2008

Has anyone tried The Gabriel Method???? I have recently seen this clip and looked up his sites and yes let my fingers do a bit of walking – what did we do before Google – I just can’t imagine life ‘back then’.
It’s a bit sales pitchy etc but man if it’s works why not give it a go. I’l be buying the book to read and add to my collection. I firmly believe that if you read / hear /see enough, one day something will sink in. I feel that about everything in life really. It just takes that one word or action to make something click.
Anyway, check out the clip and his sites.

Sorry I’ve been so slack!!

By blogadmin | August 19, 2008

I’m not sure why I’m apologising to cyber space, but saying sorry seems to be something I am very good at….but hey, that’s a whole lot of sessions with The Lovely Liz to work all that out.
Yes I am back. Where have I been and what have I been doing??? Here is the list of reasons I have been absent.
1/ I’m a single full time working mum, and trying to start a business so just haven’t had time.
2/ My 71 yr old mother came to stay with me after a full knee replacement and life just changed.
3/ I hurt my back.
4/ I had pnuemonia and that included a hospital stay.
5/ I went away for a couple of weeks.
6/ We had Easter and I felt guilty (another REALLY healthy emotion) about eating chocolate.
7/ I have a 2 1/2 year old!!!!
8/ I have felt a little bad deep down that my results haven’t been faster.
Now the question is which of these reasons is valid??
They all are!!!
Yep, it’s been a crazy few months, but the truth is if I had really wanted to find the time, I would have – and it’s that simple.
Have you ever felt so overwelmed that you kinda get off the beaten track and you’re not sure how to get back on?? I’m not talking about being depressed, just lacking focus and not being able to see the trees etc.
Well I had a weeks holiday in Fiji, the end of the financial year has come and gone and the auditors have gone for another year….. I’ve found my focus again, thanx to my new trainer – she shall remain nameless at the moment, but she’s an inspiration – she lost over 50kg and is now a personal trainer!!!!
I hope you will continue to join me on this crazy adventure.
Good news is – I have still managed to strip some layers during this slack time.
