These are the chronicles of an unhealthy girl, trying to re-create herself in healthy form, by taking long walks through surrounding parks and woodland, eating better and not hating on herself too much.
Warning: there may also be singing and my own knitting patterns involved.
I made the decision back in January 2012 to try and lose some weight; to try and be healthier, to try to give myself a better future.

The story continues to this day (I Aten't Dead yet, to paraphrase Terry Pratchett's Granny Weatherwax) and has been chronicled by me in different ways, on different platforms, in different styles over the years.
This blog is an attempt to bring them all together in one cohesive whole. Or at least all together. I can't promise cohesion, but I can promise my story through essays I write for another (private) blog, a collection of expanded facebook statuses, photographs of places that both helped me move physically and moved me emotionally, the occasional knitting pattern as and when I publish them, and general chatter from my conversational meanderings around the web.
This blog, however, is not an attempt to be instructional! I have no qualifications in or about nutrition, and only know what little I've gleaned from the 'net, and from my real-life betters. I can barely bake a cake, so all recipes are thankfully not my own. I have even fewer qualifications in yoga, or strength-training, or how to avoid smacking your face with a Wii-mote when Rhythm Boxing.
Forewarned is forearmed and all that!
