I started this blog at thirty kilos overweight and I'm tracking the process of getting healthy, slender, strong and more contented with my body, because I am worth too much to myself not to be happy. I'm trying not to beat myself up or obsess too much as I do it, as I'm ALL about mental health and happiness along the way. It's a delicate balance sometimes. This blog is a bit unusual: I've done large-scale weight loss before, kept it off for years, and now, following a series of stressful/anxiety-provoking life things, I'm doing it again. But, OK, if that's what it takes. I set out (at Easter 2011) to lose 30kg - hence the blog's title. I'm about half way there (as of Nov 2011). Progress is slow but OK, it is still progress. I'll take it.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
I’m really trying to cook more and eat processed stuff less.
Mixed results so far, but I’m trying.
If something didn’t exist 200 years ago, then it probably is not actually, “food.” Real food is from a field, not a lab.
