Project Fiona: About the challenge
http://projectfiona.blogspot.com/p/paleo-diet.html
From obesity to a heathy me in 26 seconds. A journey to improved health and well being. Since 1995 I have consistently gained an average of 2 kilos each year. I am now thirty (30) kilos overweight. Since 2006 I have been officially obese. To work towards a healthy body. And more importantly, learning to maintain that healthy body for life. To do this, I need help. Help with exercise, help with fat loss, help with healthy eating, help with sticking to my goal. So, I have turned to a. I document any observ...

Project Fiona: 13 reasons to look forward, not back
http://projectfiona.blogspot.com/2011/03/13-reasons-to-look-forward-not-back.html
From obesity to a heathy me in 26 seconds. A journey to improved health and well being. Thursday, 3 March 2011. 13 reasons to look forward, not back. The last few posts have all been about failure, losing control, making a mountain out of a molehill. So, I thought it time to give out a positive message. I have jogged 13 kilometres since Tuesday 22 February. 13 brilliant reasons to be proud. 13 reasons to look to the future, not the past. Regret is a waste of energy. I still walk my dog twice a day. It wa...

Project Fiona: When chocolate doesn't solve everything
http://projectfiona.blogspot.com/2011/03/when-chocolate-doesnt-solve-everything.html
From obesity to a heathy me in 26 seconds. A journey to improved health and well being. Wednesday, 2 March 2011. When chocolate doesn't solve everything. I am obese, I have self-destructive food routines, and I have decided that this needs to change. I need to nurture and nourish my body and soul. And the logical consequence of this epiphany? This cause and effect - I feel bad so I need a chocolate bar. Because the problem isn't chocolate. So, if I remove chocolate? So this whole "thing" is not about sho...

Project Fiona: 8 ways to nuture myself and nourish my friendships
http://projectfiona.blogspot.com/2011/03/8-ways-to-nuture-myself-and-nourish-my.html
From obesity to a heathy me in 26 seconds. A journey to improved health and well being. Friday, 4 March 2011. 8 ways to nuture myself and nourish my friendships. I had coffee with a friend after work yesterday. It was wonderful. She is a friend I love, but never see. One of my realisations is that I have no idea how to nourish or nurture my friendships. We talked about that. So I have no reference point for what normal adults do to be friends with another adult. C I have no idea how to form new friendshi...

Project Fiona: The beginning
http://projectfiona.blogspot.com/p/sugar.html
From obesity to a heathy me in 26 seconds. A journey to improved health and well being. I was having morning tea with friends, and I'd brought some home-made biscuits to share. Kelly declined the treat as she had decided to eliminate sugar from her diet after reading Sweet Poison. I was interested in Kelly's choice. She wasn't the first friend to tell me they had given up sugar - or more specifically - fructose. So Kelly lent me two Sweet Poison. Books - thank you Kelly! One of the Sweet Poison. It is on...

Project Fiona: The good space
http://projectfiona.blogspot.com/2011/03/good-space.html
From obesity to a heathy me in 26 seconds. A journey to improved health and well being. Thursday, 17 March 2011. I am in the good space. The one that can often preceed the descent into the pit. Everything seems to be going well. I am challenging myself, I am making good choices, and well, the goals I am trying to achieve may actually seem achievable - losing weight and exercising each day is a reality. And what happens next? So, what I am going to do this time, while I am in this good space? And here is ...

Project Fiona: Is exercise negotiable in your life? Part Two
http://projectfiona.blogspot.com/2011/03/is-exercise-negotiable-in-your-life_19.html
From obesity to a heathy me in 26 seconds. A journey to improved health and well being. Saturday, 19 March 2011. Is exercise negotiable in your life? For, me, exercise comes down to motivation - is there a convincing reason that gets me to exercise each day. When the reason is non-negotiable, then exercise will be part of my life. But what do I mean by negotiable exercise? I think it is exercise where YOU are the only person who experiences the consequences - negative or positive - of doing the exercise.

Project Fiona: February 2011
http://projectfiona.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
From obesity to a heathy me in 26 seconds. A journey to improved health and well being. Wednesday, 16 February 2011. The big lie - forming a habit in three weeks. I haven't posted here for a week. And that week is week four - half way through my eight week challenge. After three weeks of eating healthily, exercising hard, and feeling virtuous, I went off the rails. I became completely unreasonable in my thinking about my health, and everything in my life was catastrophised. THIS IS A LIE. What did I find?

http://projectfiona.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
From obesity to a heathy me in 26 seconds. A journey to improved health and well being. Sunday, 20 March 2011. Why is it, sometimes, that you can suddenly be hit by "blah"? Life is good. But I feel. blah. Have you got any plans? No, I feel. blah. Did you have fun at the movies? Hhmmm I suppose. blah. So, why do you feel like this? I dunno. blah. Fiona, signing out. blah. Saturday, 19 March 2011. Is exercise negotiable in your life? But what do I mean by negotiable exercise? You are choosing to exercise.
