feedmysoul

I need to find me and in the process look after the me that I want to take into my future.

Reading other peoples journals has inspired me to try one for my own. Perhaps I can lose weight and find the inner me.

It is time to feed my soul not my body.

. : About me : .

Name::michelle
From::victoria, Australia
I am a mother of 3 almost grown children working full time in our own business. I used to also do a lot of voluntary work. I am an ex secondary school teacher. I have been overweight for the past ten years and have reached a stage in my life where I don't want to put up with it anymore. I have been so busy being wife, mother, boss, helper that I seem to have lost myself. Coping with one crisis after another without complaining but always turning to food for comfort. I need to find me and in the process look after the me that I want to take into my future. Reading other peoples journals has inspired me to try one for my own. Perhaps I can lose weight and find the inner me. It is time to feed my soul not my body.

JUST KEEP JUMPING

Well I really missed everyones blogs over the weekend because I was just to sick to go near the computer. My DD gave me her virus last week. (although strictly speaking I started it 2 weeks ago and have just been given it back.) She is really sick poor thing.
I weighed in on Sat morning and had put on 400g. Not too bad considering I had been on hols and overeaten but I was still hoping for something better. Still a 70s girl. Without all that exercise it would have been much worse.Managed to eat my way through weekend feeling miserable and unable to sleep. Went to the show on Sat and it was really enjoyable. Very nostalgic 60s musical. Poor daughter went to soccer because she said she felt better. I didn't go because I was too sick.Had to go get her. She was sitting on the side of the field in the pouring rain. We just got home and she started throwing up. Poor thing had a migrane I think. So after she had a nap we curled up on couch together and watched BB. I made myself not go to kickboxing this morning because I need to get better. Very little exercise I think this week.
I am in office alone for next 4 days but not in mood for working this afternoon so turned to blogs. Thank goodness you people are here when I needed you. Thanks for all your lovely comments. Please don't think I am whinging when I tell you about things going wrong because my life is always chaotic. I am using this journal to let things out but am not constantly seeking affirmation or anything. Don't know if I am making sense. Hope you understand what I am trying to say. I get a lot of pleasure from sharing in other peoples journeys and trying to be supportive. But I would hate to be seen as being needy or a whinger!
Life is what it is and the best way to face the hurdles is to just get on with it and jump when you can, or fall when you cannot. Then pick yourself up and jump again. But, it is really nice to have some people to share it with who don't make judgements and can make me smile and feel less lonely. Thanks everyone.
