A really good question
Wednesday, November 18, 2015 6 comments "Basically, I take everything I've ever been told I can't or shouldn't do, and do it anyway." Lately I feel like I've been explaining my WordPress blog to people a lot. The first few times I stumbled through some wittering rubbish that pro... Read more
7 times it's okay to skip a workout
Friday, July 24, 2015 6 comments 1) Whenever the heck you want. You do not owe health, fitness, or a particular body size/shape to anyone. 2) Whenever the heck you want. If the thought of slogging through yet another session fills you with dread - don't do it. 3) When... Read more

Who are you?
Friday, May 08, 2015 9 comments I am an introvert. Sometimes even the thought of social interaction takes more energy than I have. So last night after a gym induction so sexist I’m still struggling to contain my rage (that’s a-whole-nother blog), when I had to decide between g... Read more
Oh dear
Wednesday, April 08, 2015 8 comments I knew it was a bad idea. I knew I would regret it. But I did it anyway. After 2 weeks of taking it easy to get over my virus, this morning I stepped on the scale. I saw 12 stone and my heart plummeted. I never ever wanted to see that number ag... Read more
A woman left lonely
Saturday, March 28, 2015 6 comments I don't know if it's the miserable weather today, or the come-down after my best friend came to see me last night, but I feel terribly lonely today. I was hoping to go for tea with another friend but I've still not heard back from her. I'v... Read more

End of an era
Monday, February 09, 2015 5 comments I actually, really did it! I'm FREEEE! I have hated my job for nearly 2 years and today was my last day. Ever. I got down to the car park at the end of the day and felt such a mix of emotions I didn't know whether to laugh or cry. I went ... Read more
New job
Tuesday, February 03, 2015 12 comments I finally have some time for a blog! So, the mind-blowingly excellent news is that I have a new job! I have signed so many documents my signature no longer looks right, sent off every piece of ID I own, completed a medical questionnaire, an...
