On the Way to ONEderland: September 2011
http://livinginonederland.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
On the Way to ONEderland. Wednesday, September 21, 2011. The Long and Winding Road. Leads to the cupboard, apparently. I'm back after a crazy few weeks in which M and I did what was meant to be a brief vacation in Virginia with his family, then a brief vacation with my family near Miami, and then returned home in time for 9/11. In the middle of this was 9/11 to negotiate - always a bit tricky - and the usual life choices and challenges. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Current goal: lose 35 lbs. 2011 Ride for...

On the Way to ONEderland: July 2011
http://livinginonederland.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
On the Way to ONEderland. Tuesday, July 26, 2011. Quick update: the wedding was a blast, my outfit was a hit. I was unable to avoid all cameras and saw some photos of myself. I could have zeroed in on a million flaws, but in the end I just kind of shut off the negative part of my mind and focused on how cool the bright tangerine color looked on the beach at sunset. Am I on track with any weight loss? No Am I holding on tight to as many good habits as I can? More soon, once I get a minute to update. While...

On the Way to ONEderland: Seeing Thyself
http://livinginonederland.blogspot.com/2012/04/seeing-thyself.html
On the Way to ONEderland. Thursday, April 26, 2012. Uncomfortably familiar with exactly how this photographer describes/sees herself. I've sometimes seen myself in pictures and wondered, "Who is that person? I look so different from how I feel about myself. See what I'm talking about here. April 26, 2012 at 10:36 PM. Interesting article. I was especially interested in the comments.opinions are so varied. May 11, 2012 at 10:24 PM. May 28, 2012 at 8:49 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

On the Way to ONEderland: March 2011
http://livinginonederland.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
On the Way to ONEderland. Friday, March 25, 2011. Today I got an accurate sense of just. how. awfully. bloated. I am. A few months ago I ran into a store to buy a jacket because it was unexpectedly cold and I wasn't adequately dressed, and I saw one on sale for $14. Naturally, the jacket was in a size smaller than I usually wear, but I got it anyway, because just a few days earlier I'd found a different style jacket in the same size and it fit fine. Now then. What do you think I tried on this morning?

Live to Slim - Bring It On: May 2015
http://livetoslim.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Fun on the beach. Tuesday, 12 May 2015. We're having a lovely if somewhat breezy time here in Northumberland. I love it here. The beaches are just stunning and empty. The dogs LOVE it cos there are sand martins flying every evening so they run around like mad things. We have walked for miles, golfed in a howling gale (exhausting) and eaten and drunk like people who know no limits! I think it is the sea air.well, that's my excuse and I just don't care as we're having a wonderful time. Tuesday, 5 May 2015.

On the Way to ONEderland: April 2011
http://livinginonederland.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
On the Way to ONEderland. Friday, April 29, 2011. Cloud, Meet Silver Lining. Scene: Me, in my messy bedroom, attempting to clean up the chaos of six weeks inattention. Suddenly I spot my heretofore still-too-tight skinny jeans in a bag of clean laundry. I gasp. Against all my wishes, they've been washed! Overcome by compulsion. Must. Try. On. Fear holds me back. Compulsion wins over fear. Jeans slide on. Easily. I take them off, check label, make sure they're right pair. Thursday, April 28, 2011. After t...

On the Way to ONEderland: November 2011
http://livinginonederland.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
On the Way to ONEderland. Monday, November 28, 2011. Must Not. Succumb. Am going to eke out a win today if it kills me, but afternoon sleepy-time/munchie-time is getting me down. My eating was supposed to be a thing of beauty all day, given that I carefully planned my week's meals on Sunday, and then even stepped into the kitchen to pre-prep my lunch salad last night so I would have *no excuse* for eating off plan. All was according to plan, including biking to work (hey, it's freakin' 60 degrees today!

Live to Slim - Bring It On: Baby steps
http://livetoslim.blogspot.com/2015/07/baby-steps.html
Fun on the beach. Monday, 27 July 2015. I will give it a good go this week and will try to find the time tomorrow to mock up a sheet for recording of food and exercise purposes. It really helps me stay on the straight and narrow. On balance, I think the early morning swim is the best option so I will have to prepare properly to avoid all temptation to back out! I know what that sneaky chimp is like. Come on someone - give me a push through that door! Consider yourself pushed missus :-). Fat Blogs I like.

Live to Slim - Bring It On: Helloo! I've missed yooouu!!
http://livetoslim.blogspot.com/2015/06/helloo-ive-missed-yooouu.html
Fun on the beach. Monday, 29 June 2015. Wow, that was a long break from blogging! I don't know what happened. I went on holiday, thought about posts, promised posts but never quite got round to taking the laptop out from its hidey hole and turning it on. This walk was from Warkworth to Alnmouth. Well, to a view of Alnmouth as, when we got there we discovered we couldn't cross the river without a monstrous detour. So we stood on the dune and looked at it. We never did get to Alnmouth! Since Rich joined my...

Live to Slim - Bring It On: September 2014
http://livetoslim.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
Fun on the beach. Tuesday, 23 September 2014. So, Slimming World. I've just been to my week 2 weigh in and recorded a second 2.5lb drop. So a total of 5 lbs in all. Unspectacular given how heavy I am and how, if had followed the regime properly, I could have dropped that and more in the first week but, hey, 5lbs is 5lbs. So that is my reality. He was sad that I had missed it but Rich and I had already seen them over Ladybower Reservoir on Sunday so it was no problem. I did eventually get off my backside ...
