It's true! Here's the proof - I am as heavy as a giant anteater. The National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh told me. It was pretty horrendous actually. There were great big tall grown men who were also as heavy as a giant anteater.... And me!
So I've had a check up with my GP. He thinks this low spell is because my baby is going to university soon. And I probably agree. There are lots of stressful things in my life at the moment but my little boy going out into the big bad world is a worry. I know I don't look old enough for my youngest to be leaving home, but what can I tell you? I'm blessed! Anyway I could go on and on about my mental health, but I don't want to do that - I'd have to change the name of my blog to Gilly's Doom and Gloom. But I do want to tell you how it affects my eating. In just a couple of words " I eat too much". I comfort eat. I eat when I'm hungry and I eat when I'm not. I eat when I'm full and I eat when I really don't want to. I just eat all the time. My head just can't cope with any sensible eating plan. I can't eat healthily and it makes me miserable! And then we go round and round in circles. And no one can tell me! No one can help me! I just can't/won't listen. But I'll get better and I'll do it.
Right! Now the exciting bit. Would you like to design a tattoo for my lower back? You can pick/draw/design anything you like. The only catch is I'd like you to donate £10 to the Alzheimer's society, through my Just Giving page, to enter the competition. All designs into a hat and one pulled out will be tattooed onto my back. All the rules are on www.justgiving.com/fundraising/gilly-wilson3
Message me if you have any questions. Thank you so much for your support. Please feel free to donate any amount even if you don't want to enter a tattoo idea. Thank you so much. Ooh, and please share and tell all your friends!
No I don't care what my tattoos look like when I'm 90, I'll just be glad that I'm still alive!
