Time for change,

I would just like to start by wishing you all a very Happy New Year. 2012 is going to be a bloody good year, I have decided. LOL  




I have started this year with a very positive attitude and intend to keep it through the year, I have given my head a wobble and have made a few changes about the things that matter to me, like the people who are important to me will stay in my life and I will cherish them and make the most of every second I get with them and the people who are not important to me won’t even get a second thought, as I have spent far too long caring for people who no longer matter to me.



I have started to do Slimming World again as I have been a little indulgent over Christmas and now I need to get back on track. For anyone who is thinking of starting a diet I would highly recommend Slimming World. I lost 3 and a half stone on it and I have to say that its really easy to do and I never once felt hungry, that is an amazing thing for me as I am normally always hungry and I love love love nice food. I am the type of person who lives to eat, I have had such fun doing the diet and most of the meals are yummy. I would defiantly recommend theLancashire Hot pot and the SW chips are delicious. I have even got my dad eating them. LOL  My only bit of advice and I may get my legs slapped for saying this, but oh well here goes, If you fancy a slice of Pizza have a slice of Pizza don’t try and make an alternative, like a mash potato pizza, as it just does not get rid of the NEED for Pizza. I don’t know if other people are like me but when I get something in my head I just have to have it and nothing else will do. 

I also need to start to do more exercise but because I have Fibromyalgia (there will be a post about this very soon to explain what it is and what it does to me)  I have to take it mega slow and try and build up very gradually, the example my specialist gave me was if I can manage to take the dog out for a walk, I have to start by doing 30 seconds of brisk walking and then cut it back down to a slow plod and build it up from there, 30 second to 3 minutes of brisk walking could take months to achieve. This is going to be a very slow process and I know it will do my head in but I know I will get there.

Well that is about it from me for now.
