Out with the old, in with the new!

It is the Tenth of January and I am sitting here with dye in my hair. That's right guys I am changing my look.

It all started about 3 days a go where I spontaneously dyed my hair as it has been not quite blonde not quite ginger naturally for years and I'd got fed up! Here I am doing it again however, as unfortunately first time round my hair turned out an odd ginger colour which changed in different light. hmm.. not a good look I'm afraid!

The next thing I did was take a lot of photos down from my wall. There were some from 2006, ticket stubs that reminded me of nasty things and drawings from friends I no longer see. Doing this was nice and refreshing as i think its only healthy to realise every now and then that life is not what it was and its time to except this. In doing this however, it has made me realise how small my life has become and now I wonder what I should fill that wall with? Will I meet new people? Will I travel? When will I learn to drive so i can go and take new shots and have new experiences?

I promised myself that I'd get on top of things this year and this means combatting stupid things like...feelings ergh! Oh theres a lot to combat and one of those things is weight.
Im not humungous but i still manage to get nasty comments and looks. Im a size 14 (UK). At work on Monday (just before I managed to swing a metal stand into my leg and cutting myself oops) a work colleague..horrible little man with something large, wooden and sharp lodged up his behind decided it was ok to say 'Frances, you've got a belly'. Thank you.
At Pizza Hut the waitress seemed to insist I had diet pepsi and just to top it off she gave me the pizza me and the other half couldn't finish in a take away box. Lets rephrase that..the waitress gave ME the box. Grr.

In conclusion, there is only one thing for it. Change my identity and run away! Too much? OK Ill start with the basics.

Step 1: Dye hair to feel different and a little more sparkly and new.

Step 2: Learn to drive.

Step 3: Lose some weight. Lets face it, none of us want to be part of the statistics. "UK IS OBESE"

From now on I will blog about a variety of things such as, healthy recipes, easy exercises and how my weight is shifting. I'll also be updating you on my friendly fun endeavours so if you fancy, follow me for this nano-second of my life and maybe I can help you with yours.

Picture of hair coming soon...
