Fat Fridays: The Evolution of Unique – 18.06.2021

Fat Fridays – 18.06.2021 The Evolution of Unique From time to time, I reflect upon where I am at this moment in my life. Since I started my journey in 2019, I have evolved a lot in this space of time. It all started with my decision to stop eating animal meat. Today, I findContinue reading “Fat Fridays: The Evolution of Unique – 18.06.2021”

C25K: Week Five Reflections – 31.05.2021

Week five was a week worth of walking; a combination of the high temperatures and stress levels on the increase in general areas of my life had me feeling like giving up on the training plan. A mixture of the past cutting into the present, tempting me to revert to laziness. I walked daily, sixContinue reading “C25K: Week Five Reflections – 31.05.2021”

Fat Fridays: Off the Mark 28.05.2021

This week has been challenging, though it started well. History came zapping through my phone and pinging on WhatsApp with a ‘Hey, Unique…’ the innocence of the opening-line opened up that tiny door in my heart. Then blasted through with a missile, forcing my eyes to focus on reality. In short? There is no short.Continue reading “Fat Fridays: Off the Mark 28.05.2021”

Reflection: Week Four – 22.05.2021

This week I have been menstruating. I planned to go for a jog on Wednesday, but I never felt so good. I have been feeling under the weather; my GP reckons it may be a seasonal bug. Symptoms should pass in 24-48 hours. The good news is I finally have a new pair of trainersContinue reading “Reflection: Week Four – 22.05.2021”

Fat Fridays: How to Relax Effectively? 23.04.2021

How to Relax Effectively? Before I used to lay awake until well after 0200 in the morning. No matter what I did, I was unable to relax effectively. Some days I would struggle to keep up with my to-do list and continue the cycle the following night. I was like I was the only personContinue reading “Fat Fridays: How to Relax Effectively? 23.04.2021”

Remember: Always Read the Labels

Not everything is what it appears to be on the front. Many sugars contain bone char – which is the bones from animals pulverised and mixed in with sugar, during the process. It will take you less than a minute to check the label on the back of the packet, to see whether the packetContinue reading “Remember: Always Read the Labels”

Fat Fridays: Is Sugar Sweet or Toxic? 09.04.2021

Before: I remember adding 3 large spoonful’s of sugar to any hot drink I had made. Stirring it and smiling in greedy delight to accept the sweetness I was about to deliver to myself. Sugar was my thing! Sugar ringed doughnuts, sugary sweeties, sugar sprinkled over pancakes and the more sugar the happier I feltContinue reading “Fat Fridays: Is Sugar Sweet or Toxic? 09.04.2021”

Fat Fridays: Fear of Change? 02.04.2021

Before I hid my body away beneath layers of black clothing, oversized black clothing to be detailed. As I avoided looking in mirrors, I never really knew how stupid I looked. I mean, being a fatty and trying to hide in black is nonsensical. I was there walking around looking like a black hole. IContinue reading “Fat Fridays: Fear of Change? 02.04.2021”
