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.

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.

A few things to celebrate today. Having to get into that small singlet yesterday prompted me to get one out that I wore 12 months ago and compare. WOW!!!
Went to gym tonight to have my program updated. I was going to cancel it because I am not well but thought it was better to go. We wrote a new program together and I requested back strengthening exercises! I didn't do the program tonight but was stoked when my measurements were taken. I have lost 27cm, 3% body fat and 6 kgs since last weigh in in November. The trainer said I am obviously doing something right so that was good. I was unable to go to kickboxing or my tennis leson today and cancelled my group training for the rest of the week. At gym I just did 15 mins on the treadmill hoping it might loosen me up. I have given some thought to the walk runs and decided to do the Mothers Day Classic and the run to the G. Are there any bloggers who would like to join me?. I think my sister won't be around for these events. If anyone is interested just drop me an email and wecan encourage each other to keep training. I am determined to keep training and enter events regularly because it has been such an exhilirating thing to do and makes me feel so good about myself. I am wondering is anyone else sore from the run yesterday. Part of me is sore from my back and stomach problems but the rest of me is also sore. Is anyone else hobbling around? The contrast between all that energy yesterday and the limited way I am moving today is quite dramatic!
