At what point do you say to yourself “you know what? I am sick of having to pick myself up! At what point do you just give up? Imagine your life if you just gave up on the things that you wanted to do. Where would you be today? Would you be happy? Would you be content with whom you are? Do you think every successful person who achieved their goal had no obstacles and that’s the reason why they succeeded? Should we listen to the outside voices of people who believe because we have an illness we should take it easy, curl up and rest, give up, try something simpler and so on? |

In my last blog I talked about feeling fatigued and having my joints more sore than usual. I mentioned how you need to listen to your body.Well I can’t have been listening very well.Talk about the “Man Flu”………. More on that a bit later though. It was as I had predicted, a very busy week.The kid’s school production was all about the Rugby World Cup and boy did they do a fantastic job. My Son Ben, who was nervous about the whole thing, did very well. His class was representing Wales and they sang a beautiful song and then he also got to do the Haka at the end. |

Well, the title says it all really. I was putting off doing my update as I aren't feeling too inspiring. Then I thought well, I guess some people would like to know how a Personal Trainer gets through these kind of days. Last week was a shocker. I had such a bad tummy bug and spent alot of time on the toilet.....lol Not nice!!! This week I'm definately suffering from lack of motivation, I've hit a wall, I'm frustrated, Feel overwhelmed with goals I have set etc. If a client came to me feeling like this I would re-boot their training. |

Feeling like you have been heard is so encouraging. I got to take my daughter to see her specialist last Thursday afternoon. The Doctor seemed to really be listening to me. Really concentrating on what I said and what he thought our options might be. This felt new to me as some of our last appointments he has got Eva mixed up with another child, had the wrong file on his computer screen etc. Thursday was different. Maybe the complaint I have lodged against the hospital at Evas birth has got them covering their ass, I dont care as long as we get some help. |
