A Writer's Journey
A challenge that’s been a long time coming… but without the pain of calorie-counting, scales, and depriving myself of all things food. Instead of focussing on losing weight, I’m going to focus on changing my relationship with food – and I’m going to use the Slimpod program to do it.
It’s different from everything else I’ve come across, so I’ve decided to track this journey here.
A challenge that's been a long time coming... but without the pain of calorie-counting, scales, and depriving myself of all things food.

Between toothache, dental appointments, a sick cat, and nothing happening on the house selling front, I’ve been in the dumps lately.

I’ve been listening to the Slimpod every day, and I’ve been hogging the Chillpod, making time for it during the day.

So… I signed up to the Slimpod, and spent the first day exploring. The website, the pods, my head.
It wasn’t, perhaps, the best day to get into something new as the estate agent was bringing around the first potential buyers for a viewing that morning and life was a little hectic.

When I took my Clifton Strengths test, I found Discipline and Consistency near the bottom of the listing. Which didn’t come as a surprise to me, nor to anyone who knows me.
I’m the kind of person who finds routine boring. Who can’t write a book once she’s planned it meticulously, because all the interesting work has already been done. And who can’t image eating the same lunch two days running, let alone every week for months.
