beans beans they're good for the heart


the more you eat the more you... well we all know how that ends! but i have been making such an effort in the pulse dept!

and it is an effort - cos if you don't spruce em up they taste real bland!

growing up i ate a lot of broad beans cos my dad really liked them - i must get some for the freezer in fact - chickpeas rock and kidney beans are easy to chuck into tomato sauce but the thing i'm stuggling to replace is pasta... i know couscous is yummy but i only like it sauce free... soup is good too in moderation... but pasta is pasta! i guess i'll just have to apply the rule of moderation to it - my belief is most Italians seem kinda skinny to me anyway! that blessed beautiful people, they eat so well, ice cream, pasta, wine! - and look so good - its not fair!

i have been eating fruit for breakfast for two weeks now and all is well - so i can recommend it! my dairy intake is right down and i've lost another 2lbs so i must be doing something right... well if i didn't lose them in stress over the past fortnight that is, haha
