So I'm acutely aware that my weight is absolutely connected to everything else in my life. I'm in a chaotic job that I've learned to hate, I have 2 hyper kids who's favourite game is to ask for stuff the minute my arse hits the couch and a husband who would eat ME if I didn't move around regularly. As a result almost everything I eat is pre-packed and bought on the move and takeaways are a staple just to make it through the week.
BUT...I'm about to be made redundant and although that sounds really bad it's actually offered me a huge surge of motivation. I've worked there for a long time and as I mentioned before, leaving isn't the saddest thing I can think of so this turn of events has resulted in a strange alien feeling of liberation. I'm not feeling the need to skip lunch or check emails at the dinner table anymore...I'm eager to take the time!!
I can do anything I want and right now I want to not feel my waist band cutting me in half every time I pick up an abandoned lego brick!
2 days in and 3lbs down...I know weighing in wasn't ideal after 2 days but I wanted chocolate before my eyes opened this morning and I needed some motivation. Thank god the scales co-operated!
Watch this space, I'll be needing someone to tell me how many syns there are in a bottle of maple syrup when the consultation meetings kick in!
