Flutter By.

My funny and sassy friend Dorsey over at Searching For My Inner Skinny has awarded my this beautiful Butterfly Award for my blog. Before I start my Thank You speech I had better start nominating other blogs I think are pretty cool. 1. I know she has a whole plethora of awards already and a … Read more

HYC.

I did well this week. I have lost 1.05kg (2.3 pounds, if I remember correctly). I’m proud of myself this week for the following three reasons: 1. Being motivated to the point of perspiration by seeing some pretty darn icky photos of my current self, instead of getting down and eating myself into a state … Read more

Day Five.

I love my husband. I know I go on about it, but my love for him overwhelms me. I didn’t know that a love like this was ever possible and when it hit me, well it certainly hit me and never left. He is my best friend, my soul mate, the best father I could … Read more

Day Four.

I find it hard to be grateful for myself and especially my body. When I was pregnant I was amazed at what my body was capable of doing, carrying that little life around inside me. I had a really healthy and wonderful pregnancy. I know doctors thought because I was bigger that I would have … Read more

How Do You Measure Up?

The Australian Government has a nifty new campaign called How do you measure up? regarding battling obesity and getting healthy. I like it. The ad has been on TV a fair bit. I like that it’s realistic. It shows a man walking and talking. I could describe how it all goes, but it’s better if … Read more
