Not only making changes in our home, but also in myself. I guess this is really where the need to clean up our home environment has started. Since December 12th 2011 I have been on a journey to better health and wellbeing through what I eat and what I do. I began a workbook: Fat Chance, the no going back weight loss book. Not much happened with weights or measurements for a few weeks but then the losses started, a few hundred grams a week. When Week 6 of the workbook rolled around the loss really started. I think my metabolism kicked into action maybe? It took a while as I hadn't been a breakfast or lunch eater - often having a huge afternoon tea and dinner and that was it. I have lost 14kgs now in total and am about halfway to where I need to be for a healthy weight. I put these layouts together at the Pukerau Scrap Weekend as a way of documenting some of this journey.
Mum started this workbook too.
It was good to have company over summer as I started trying to move more.

Swimming was 'my thing' when I was younger. It felt good to be back in the pool earlier this year. Sadly/happily my togs don't fit me anymore and I know I have more to loose so I don't want to pay for new ones that I hope to grow out of soon too, nor do I want to purchase any that are too tight with the idea that I will shrink into them. Not a good look!
I can now run for 30 minutes without stopping. I completed C25K last Friday and have continued the thrice weekly runs into this week.
My plate fettish is getting a bit sad. Today I picked up some other plates at the Sallies. Love my mismatched dinnerset, it's so easy to add to it.
I am enjoying the process of 'Making Change Happen' in my body and my home.
