My first thought was panic. My baby has just turned 4 and I had post natal depression and eventually a nervous breakdown which has led me to feel that in many ways I have missed these first 4 years of his life. There is naturally some grief associated with that. I know it's different to what you're trying to demonstrate through this and yet in some way it strikes a cord as to what that can actually feel like. Of course, I do try to focus on the positive outcomes from my nervous breakdown as the past 18 months have been a huge time of personal growth and understanding for me.<br/><br/>The other thought that springs to mind is the flip side of the coin. What about those who are so driven that they miss some of the "living" along the way. Do you know what I mean? Stopping to smell the roses and that kind of thing. When I think of some of the stuff I have attempted to cram into my 33 years of life, I can't help but wonder if I'm lacking balance there somewhere.<br/><br/>I've only just started reading your stuff so I'm not sure if you deal with the "balance" issue or more the motivation issue alone.

I’ve only just started reading your stuff so I’m not sure if you deal with the “balance” issue or more the motivation issue alone.

Not sure if this is the place (like last time!) but...now I want to ask about menopause. How it effects my muscle tone which is getting back to how it was when I was 30, my diet which is sound with no junk food or sweet drinks and my weight gain with altering hormone levels etc and any other info relating to it and my body that I don't know about.<br/><br/>So far, I've no symptoms which is very cool and might be due to my determination not to have them or just blind luck. All info gladly accepted!<br/><br/>thanks again<br/>Molly Hi Craig, and MANY thanks for the Q and A re cellulite which is fast disappearing now I’m back in work.

I did it! I started training again this morning at the bright and early hour of 6AM with a lovely girl who kicked my butt in a way I never thought possible.<br/><br/>Everyone thinks I'm on some kind of happy pill because I have a new motivation, so I told them my secret was reading here everyday. So be prepared for an influx of Kalgoorlie people. (all as nutty as me).<br/><br/>So umm how many thousand people do you need to come visit? Either that or when I get to Melbourne in January, I'll have to bring my hopefully smaller butt down there to get a dose of wisdom. Woohoo! I did it!
