this past week i have been on a weight management course - and no, not for me to loose weight! I have been on a course so i can deliver a weight management course!, Carnegie offer weight management for 2 - 17 year olds and families where one or both parents are obese with younger children. I initially got involved through the volunteer breastfeeding work I do (breastfeeding reduces the chance of a child being obese in childhood and helps mothers regain their pre pregancy figure) and I have really enjoyed it, i have learnt lots of new things and made some new friends across the week. Now all i have to do to get my certificate is deliever 12 x 3.5hr sessions (supervised) a 4,000 word assigment and a reflective journal :s sure it'll all be ok ......
I have now just started a level 3 health trainer course too, it ties in really well with both the carnigie and again the breastfeeding work - heling people make healthy choices and reducing health inequalities.
I have taken Eleanor to both of these courses and it as been great, I was a little aprehensive at first but she has been extremly well behaved and people at the courses have been great.
I have really enjoyed being back in the class room though a whole week was hard, I missed jack, the housework was a bit neglected and I also missed laura, phoebe and ezra, I have gotten used to seeing you guys every week xx
