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.

WEIGH IN

Well after being bad last weekend I made up for it by being extra good during the week. I went to the gym 5 times and my training sessions twice. An average of 15000 steps per day and ate about 19 points each day. Lost 1kg. So very pleased with that.
I really enjoy the gym classes in particular but it is very hard to find the time to fit it all in. On Friday night inspired by The Biggest Loser I wrote a program using weights, fitball and mini tramploine. This is one I can do while watching TV and lasts 40 minutes. Hopefully if I get used to it I will also be able to incorporate it into my schedule when I am in NZ...minus the equipment. I have checked and 4 of the hotels we are staying at have gyms so I am planning to take my program there and push myself to complete it in the same time...hence making the gym time productive instead of just playing on their machines! That is the plan anyway. Exercise is definitely a key factor in my journey and I need to maintain it. As well as for weight loss and toning it is a great stress reliever!
