I have made plans which is a positive, going to take up yoga again which means being in a group of people which initially is one of my fears I am about to knock on the head for good, I need a life!

 

For the past two years I have become a hermit, I work from home as a moderator for 3 different websites, I bought this house in an area nobody knows me. I have lovely neighbours but I keep myself to myself but do motivate my son to go out to play instead of playing on x-box live all the time. He now plays football and goes to boys club.

 

So that's my reason for joining yoga, I am really excited about it because I know Yoga is fantastic for relaxation and any other medical complaints like a bad back (sciatica) or i.b.s even.

 

I take my prescribed medication but I am also a firm believer of using natural stuff. I take Burdock root for my water retention, extra strength peppermint oil capsules for i.b.s and I take cider vinegar tablets to control my weight. I am not on any kind of diet really but I do log everything I eat on a website which I will post at the end of this blog. I also log my exercise, I walk half hour every day which is roughly 3000 steps. I have a pedometer which is linked to my Nintendo DSi.

 

It has taken me quite a while to get this far in looking after myself after letting myself go for so long… I just didn't care whether I lived or died but now with the right medication I feel so much stronger, they really do work!

 

Well that is all for now folks, thanks for reading. I shall be back soon as I have more news regarding my new life.
