Friday Five: Things I’m loving RIGHT NOW
happy friday! i’m linking up again with Meranda and Lacey for the Friday Link up! Today I just wanted to share a quick post with you on Things I’m Loving Right Now: Not a material thing, but I’m loving the feeling of positivity right now with the fresh start of the year. It just seems…
And… Another Race!
A few months ago I signed up for the Spieren voor Spieren (that’s “muscles for muscles” literally translated) City Run in Hilversum (the media capital of the Netherlands). I knew it was the week after Milan and I thought it would be fine since at Milan I was “only” running 7KM so no big deal…
Week In Review:: 13 Nov – 20 Nov
Reflections this week Right. Let’s just get it out there. I have an important announcement to make. I am no longer on a mission to lose weight. Nope. I’m fine the way I am. I’m not going to write about how much I gained or lost or maintained yet again because let’s face it, it…
Part II::What to do when you can’t do what you do
I went to the physio. I was definitely not happy with the outcome. In fact I went home and I broke down and sobbed on my husband’s shoulder. What the hell was I going to do now? What about my races? I had a race on the 3rd of July! What about the Dam to…
Numbers and Stuff
As a self-proclaimed hater of calorie counting, I have to admit I’m kind of enjoying this new challenge. That’s how I see it, as a challenge. To see all the numbers, not just the Weight Watcher ProPoints, has been kind of fun in a twisted diet-mentality kind of way. Because, let’s face it. All of…
Positive Post: Monday Reflections and Ten Things
Last week was a mixture of the good stuff and the not so good stuff. Stress is a fairly common factor in my life at the moment, at least when it comes to work. It was probably the worst week for someone new to start on my team, but it happened anyway and I had…
Positive Post: 1st Monday of the Year Edition
Usually Mondays are fairly tough to get cranked up. A typical Sunday night is to struggle with sleep and/or wake up every few hours and then when it is actually time to get up, there is more struggling taking place. Last night was no exception but I had already had it in my mind that…
I’m Not a Weight Watchers Leader
Nor do I pretend to be. . There was a time though, that I was at my goal weight of 68KG or 150lbs, that I went religiously to my meeting every week, brought friends with me, had online “clubs” (remember Yahoo! Clubs?), and supported and cheered on new and old friends as we each worked…
And, we’re Back
After nearly one year of being on ProPoints (well, let’s face it I took a break for a few months because it was doing my head in), I can’t help but have mixed feelings now that the US/ North America will be using the program soon (and the UK already started apparently). . Why mixed…
Getting Le Crap Together
Looks like I’ve finally reached the point where I’m sick enough of myself and my excuses to do something. So, I have a plan for next week. Today is already pretty much over (not a license to eat like a person who doesn’t care about her body), we start over again tomorrow. I have planned…
