Going Down.

I broke up with my dietitian.

I don’t know if it’s forever, or just for now, but I needed a break. I loved her. She was so positive and supportive, but she was all about ‘me, me, me’.

Nothing in my life is about me right now. Everything is about work and Lacey. With my job I am giving my all for everyone else. I love giving and that suits me. I have always been the mothering, loving, caring type since a young age. It’s who I am.

But I would like something to be just about me. When I would go for my appointment we would spend the first fourteen minutes talking about the dietitian’s children and how clever they are. They are clever (and cute) so the conversation is completely justified. The last minute would be a quick weigh in and a check on how I am travelling.

I don’t have anymore space up there (pointing to where my brain should be) for more things, information or other peoples luggage. Is that selfish?

I spoke to Hubby about it and I am going to try and go it alone. Not really alone though because I have all you guys and him. I’ll see how I go and if I need to go back, I can.

So far so good though. This week I lost 0.5kg (about 2 pounds I think) which is pretty good.

I finish work on Tuesday. The thing I am looking forward to the most is having the time to take Lacey for walks and being together as a family with Hubby.

I can’t wait. xx

  1. don’t put up with that telle, good for you. i would feel guilty taking the money if i were her. good on you for losing weight without her. who needs her?

  2. Not selfish at all. All mum’s need something for themselves. You can do anything you set your mind to. Its been a massive year for you all, so enjoy your well deserved break!

  3. You’re right. This isn’t a simple friendship where you need to allow your friend to gush or vent and put your own feelings aside. This was a professional relationship, and you were paying her for her time… not the other way around. When you pay for ME time, you should be getting ME time.

    and you deserve it.

  4. Heather – Thanks. You’re right. I am paying for a service and it should be about me!

    Simone – Hopefully I can keep going with my weightloss without having to go back. I don’t think this week will be too successful with Christmas and all it’s temptations… but after that… watch out!

    Kathryn – Thank you. xx

    Thanks Jo – I can’t wait to have a nice break and let Lacey sleep uninterrupted. Bliss.

    Gwen – You have a lovely Christmas too. xx

    Kate – PERFECTLY said, and thank you. xx Merry Christmas. xx

    Tony – Oooh can you imagine how that would go down. Ouch! 😛
