Hahahaha, super cute haiku, and I can relate. Very much. Since March I've been not dieting because I truly am not a diet person, but recently I've kind of fallen off a little. As long as I keep getting back on track and am reasonable an oreo or three sometimes is OK. But how to be reasonable around such joy as Oreos... Sigh. Good luck!
They have Oreos in Nederlands? Lucky! Oh and check out sparkpeople.com, it's a good site to help you be more mindful of what you eat and it doesn't feel like dieting...plus they allow for stuff like oreos in their suggested meal plans. I started using it September first and I'm down almost 10 kilos.
Oh diets, I'm attempting to start South Beach here soon, its the only one I've had any luck with! But good luck and allow yourself an indulgence every now and again!
I'm at the (im)perfect confluence of diet trouble. The end of the biking season as we run out of daylight, warmth and clear roads is mixing dangerously with the yummy calorie season.
I'm adopting a lifestyle change, too. I kick-started it with a video blog post in which I revealed a full body shot of myself. And as I write that, I realize it sounds like I was naked when I did it. Something about the term "full body shot" seems to imply that in my mind. I'm not naked, though. I'm in clothes looking very, very, very fat. But! I won't be fat forever. I'm hoping to weigh a great deal less by BlogHer in July, because I'm going!
The story begins like this: A couple of years ago my husband got a crazy notion in his head that returning to school after years in the professional world might be a good idea. So he and I along with our three children left our suburban life in the U.S. and traded it for a new adventure in The Netherlands.
The saga continues like this:
A year of post graduate study was so much fun, we figured we'd stay a while longer. Working in a new field, attending new schools and living in a new city, I dare say we have settled into a rhythm in our expat lives.
This blog is the record I keep of our experiences here; good, bad and hilarious. Intended as an outlet for my expression, this is the place for me to say my something.
