Shameless Hussy's Natterings
American who emigrated to Europe over 10 years ago. Never looked back! I practice disciplined mindfulness daily. It's important to me. Google Jon Kabat-Zinn or go here for an non- intimidating over-view: http://www.getsomeheadspace.com/. I have MS, but even without the benefit of a Sharon Osbourne, it won't kill me. In fact it's barely on my radar at the moment. (It doesn't do that, People Magazine!) Proud 'Big Pharma' guinea pig. ...

Viewing Saturn through a telescope in the middle-of-nowhere Co. Mayo will keep you sane, people.

Member Since: 3/24/2007
My Goals:
Current Eight Week Goals UNDER CONSTRUCTION: 6 March 2013 Weekly weigh-ins
My Program:
No gimmicks, no gym membership, no excuses. Food weighing (NO by volume measurements. Can be WAY off), meal tracking, weight tracking (1x per week in maintenance, once per week in loss-mode), phys (check my tracker). Refer to those old blog entries "Burn baby burn" and "What DO you eat" for more info. Last one less pertinent now, as currently, happily non-vegan.
Personal Information:
Realised I was fat, not "thick" or "voluptuous" in the summer of 2006 and lost about 5 kilos without making a real commitment to lifestyle change. I committed in late November 2006 and have lost 25 kilos since then. (and maintained! This is 4.5 years later.)
Other Information:
Not sure if I cotton to the term ex-pat, but it's been a decade years since I set foot in the States, so I guess that qualifies me. 4 years in Germany, now 6 years in Ireland. Married to my Irishman, so they're stuck with me! Basically I let myself become a bit "portly" in my young adulthood and put a stop to it five years ago. I've truly morphed from Stay-Puft Marshmallow Girl to swoon-inducing goddess. Okay, a bit of toning is in order, but I've the tenacity of a cockroach (gross. Tried to come up with a better image, I really did, but the brain is fried this morning and that's the phrase google spit back up at me.) so I know I'll get there. I've been on Spark since March 2007 and with the kick-kiester support from the ladies at "And You're Not Invited" it's been informative, supportive, and snort-worthy (those wenches are masters of emoticon humour).
