Introduction

Well, its been two weeks since I started blogging and I guess im ready to start work on my spiritual path, so I thought an introduction to my path so far would be in order.

I have always felt different, rebelled against the norm and taken an interest in things that some people I knew didnt want to know about, as I got older I found that there are the odd couple of people who share similar ideas/values and interests as myself.   It started out as an interest in occult/supernatural/horror films and books ranging from ghost stories to demons.  As I got older (After leaving high school) I started to whittle down certain interests and increased others.  I started buying books on Egyptian Gods/Godesses, Myths and legends until in my early twentys I found a book on the bottom shelf in a book shop called Teen Witch – Wicca for a new generation by Silver Ravenwolf.  I was so excited, I had never seen a book like this explaining the craft in details I could never of hoped for.  Well, that was about 7yrs ago and I have found many other books to delve into, although some do seem confusing for me.

I have started my journey on this path many times, always putting it to one side when the going gets tough, and I do find it tough.  However, the last 6 months or so have been more consistent, I have been practising all sorts of things from grounding myself to actual rituals.  And of course I have found like minded people to confide/discuss things with on the internet and they are a fab bunch of people, I cant wait to get to meet them all.

In the following weeks I will update this section of my blog with any workings I have done along with any outcomes, my thoughts and feelings about my path and new bits of info I gather along the way.

Week Two

Ok, if you remember I had a bad weigh-in last week, which prompted me to do a magickal working.  Well, I think ive had a really good week, I saved up lots of my points so that I could be more flexible when we went out on Saturday for a Valentine’s meal at the Kerry Lamb (very recommended).  So, I was a little naughty but not as bad as I usually am, so I was very proud of myself.

I was quite surprised to find that I had only lost 1/2 lb though, but, as the lady there explained it can take a few days for all the hard work to show.  I know if I stick to it and continue being good, I will start losing every week. I guess I still feel bad for putting that 6lb back on!

Anyway, onwards and upwards! Next week will be an even better sucess!

My journey so far.

Back in September 2008 I decided to go back to Weight Watchers as I was getting fed up of being tired and lethargic!  I had a few great months where I lost weight almost each week, I stayed the same weight on only 3 occaisions and didnt put on a single lb! This was fantastic! Before i knew it the 23rd December had arrived and it was to be my last weigh in for a few weeks, and low and behold I had made it to my 10% weight loss target! I was absolutely delighted. So much so that i threw out the diet all over christmas and ate what I wanted.

I finally plucked up the courage to go back to meetings the second week into January, and was pleasantly surprised that i had only put on 1lb!  However, the following week i put on 3 1/2 lbs, I was gutted.  Anyway I missed a couple of weeks because i had been naughty.  Next time I weighed I stayed the same weight (a small mercy!)  That was last week, and as some of you will be aware it was my birthday on Saturday (7th) and I had been given lots of yummy chocs and of course me and paul (my Fiancee) went out for a meal and lots of drinks!

I was totally dreading weighing in today and, as suspected I had put on yet more weight! 1 1/2 lbs.  that makes it 6lbs in total that I have put on.  Well no more!  To help strengthen my will power I called on a little candle burning ritual for assistance (Magick/Spiritual Journey will get its own page, so keep an eye out if interested).  So today is the start of a new beginning! Well..Diet wise anyway.  Wish me luck folks, and dont forget to tune back in next Tuesday for my next weigh in.

Ta ta for now. xxxx

Hello!?

Hello and welcome to my blog.  Im not really too sure what to write, but im sure i will get into the swing of it soon, so please bear with me.

I guess i should introduce myself first.  My name is Sarah and i live in Mid-Wales, i am in my late 20’s and enjoy reading, puzzles and surfing (the internet that is).

I am  currently following the Weight Watchers diet plan and have so far lost over a stone and a half, i will keep my blog updated with my ups and downs as i continue to reach my goal.  I am also exploring my spiritual side and trying very hard to get back to nature, the way we used to live, i will record my journey here also.

So i shall say goodbye for now and hope to update my new blog soon.
