i ain't no jaffa

so i have been the gym every day and ate 'sensibly' all week and appear to have lost 4lbs - seems impossible! perhaps they'll be back today...

but what a great inspiration to my no more biscuits diet...

and now i've got to add sandwiches - well shop sandwiches anyway.. why?

i'll tell you why!

i watched a documentary on TV about how much crap like salt, sugar and fat they pump these shop sarnies with last night and frankly i never want to eat something i've not prepared myself again!

veggie options are so boring in the shops anyway* and it saves you money and um, well i can't think of another but those two are reason enough! seriously tho, reconstituted meats, water and starch pumped into chicken for preserving... gross!

all i have to do now is convince myself to give up lovely booze and i am sooo the next Kate Moss haha NOT! the problem with booze is that in moderation it would be fine - but one tends to lead to another in perpetuity and until i fall over... that's the high heels tho right?! haha




*except at Boots which actually came out top in the review with low salt and low calorie options the main drift, and i especially love the hummus carrot and watercress on malted bread - delish!

suggestive digestives

no more biscuits is my mantra when it comes to losing some pounds... and yet on day 2 someone brings in chocolate chip cookies into work and i guiltily enjoy 3 of them!

i will NEVER be thin... ha, and who wants to be? oh, that'd be me then! haha

sugar is such an evil invention - i am totally addicted to it! and yet once i get it out my system (that's usually about 3 weeks of abstinence in case you were wondering) i don't crave it all, and yet i fall off the wagon in a moment of habit and bobs yer uncle i'm addicted once more, craving chocolate, cake, biscuits, ice cream - all the naughty things in life! haha

i'm trying to diet in an 'old fashioned' 'everything in moderation' 'low carbs' fashion. i've recently been converted to organic milk because (i'm told) they fatten up cows with hormones and in turn they makes us into fat cattle! ruined! i thought my diary intake was safe! haha

i'm trying to go to the gym everyday but things like moving house, getting my boyf to the bank, going to the supermarket and going the cinema keep getting in the way of my pious intentions!

i just need to be strict and block out my after work hour and a half non-negotiable - then i'd be trim! o yes! and maybe allowed the occasional biscuit! haha
