Day 31: How’s it all going? So it’s been a month since I’ve been actively focussing on incorporating Health at Every Size principles in my life. So, how’s it going? What changes have I noticed? What’s good, what’s not so good and is anything just flat out bad? From my first post there are three […]
My Projects
The Anatomy Of A Binge
Day 30: Losing Control As long as I can remember I have binge eaten. For me the binge is almost always the same. I’ll be feeling OK, positive even, and then over a few days my energy and motivation levels will slowly subside until I end up feeling like getting out of bed is an […]
I Am Not Fat
Day 27: Do you identify as fat? I have a friend that I work with regularly whom is an amazingly talented communicator. I don’t remember how the subject arose, but we found ourselves talking today about fat. My friend noted she had a problem with the word fat, which many people do. It’s not that […]
Reconnect With The Taste Of Food
Day 25: Food is just food Yesterday my mother text me what she was having for dinner. Osso Bucco with caramelised brussle sprouts, crispy potatoes with a red cabbage salad and a glass of wine. It sounds like a menu at a restaurant but she made it herself. I’ve written before about how it seems […]
What I’ve Been Reading
Day 23: Looking for inspiration I have cookies for lunch today. Yesterday I exercised twice. It’s safe to say that I’m feeling a little bit out of control. It’s also safe to say that I, like the majority of the world, have some real issues about food, dieting, fat and health. There is so much written […]
I Really Want To Go On A Diet
Day 22: Letting go is hard I went clothes shopping the other day after a long hiatus. It wasn’t an intentional hiatus, more my partner and I are going on holiday to England (6 weeks an four days from now!!!) so it’s really been a question of not wanting to spend money. But, turns out, […]
Plus Size Clothes Shopping
Day 19: Disappointment Clothes shopping when you’re plus sized is an unpleasant experience. Or maybe it is for everybody. I don’t know but I do know I went shopping and found only a couple of things that fit me and they didn’t really suit me. There’s something so heartily disappointing about being in a mall […]
Time Out
Day 18: Muh! The forecast today is 100% correct. This is a productivity free zone today and I’m actually quite happy with that. So, nothing to see here, move along. Tomorrow is soon enough to get back into doing some work. Alright, if you must see something, below is a cute cat video. Have a […]
What Is My Set Point?
Day 17: So this is it then? I talked yesterday about what results I can expect from following a HAES lifestyle and if you read the post you’ll see weight loss didn’t make the list. Does that mean this is it then? This is the weight I will be forever? Well maybe, and then maybe […]
What Results Can You Expect With HAES?
Day 16: My fantasy of being thin If I’m forgoing the usual methods of measuring lifestyle changes *cough* diets *cough* such as getting on the scales or out with the tape measure, then how am I to know if the program is a success or not? Well, usually when I’ve gone on a program I’ve […]
