I think I am finally back into the right mindset for this. I have been logging everything I eat and keeping to a set amount of calories for around ten days now without once falling off the wagon. This makes me feel good.
What also makes me feel good is looking down and seeing that [...]

So… I have been on my diet for a whole week with almost perfect behaviour and as a result my body has thanked me.

We are all guilty of taking our health for granted from time to time but for the obese among us this has become a life long habit. ‘Opps! I fell off the wagon…again…I’ll start again… tomorrow…’, sound familiar? It is to me. And tomorrow rarely comes.
For the past six months this has been the [...]

We all deal with stress in a number of ways. A lucky few of us breeze through life without letting anything get to us but most of us need to find a way of de-stressing. For some of us it might be alcohol, having a friend to lean on or even exercise. For me, [...]

Scales are funny things, don’t you think? We, as a culture, put so much importance in what they tell us. There are women - and indeed men - up and down our respective countries basing their mood that day on what the scales tell them. Because they say one of three things:
“OMGzzzzzzzzz!!!! You fat [...]

I have been meaning to write this for hours but keep getting sidetracked with the “brain game” on Facebook! I am forced myself off it now though. I guess it keeps me from eating though!!
I have had yet another good day - 3 days in now - and am so chuffed that I am [...]

Here I am on day three; on a roll! Not literally, you understand, although I am eating a Petit Pain as we speak! No, I am doing really well, scarily well. I have only gone down a pound so far but I have a feeling I will have a dramatic loss in the next [...]

Carbs - 56%
Protein - 17%
Fat - 26%
Alcohol - 0%
I love eggs. I try not to eat too many of [...]

Hello, I am here and REALLY raring to go this time. I know, same old, same old! But I am. It always takes me a few days when I get back on the wagon to get all the rubbish out of my system and to feel the urge to eat healthily. It is a [...]

‘When I was small and five
I found a pencil sharpener alive!
He lay in lonely grasses
Looking for work.
I bought a pencil for him.
He ate and ate until all that was
Left was a pile of wood dust.
It was the happiest pencil sharpener
I ever had’
-Spike Milligan, ‘2B or not 2B’
