Full Moon
I'm afraid I didn't have as much of a successful week as the last one in regards to my weight loss but I still managed to loose 200g ..I have to admit that I went on a bit of a food rampage last Sunday, it was a family celebration with lots of great food in the form of a free for all buffet.I was planning on being relatively good but one thing led to another and before I knew it I'd had seconds and was considering going for my third "Portuguese tart" ( type of small custard filled tart ) just to break the taste of the low fat plum cake Vee had made....
Women can usually blame their hormones when they have a bad week however for us males it is somewhat more difficult, nonetheless I shall blame the full moon for my sudden feeding frenzy.
When the full moon arrives, I grow some hair and become an overweight infertile werewolf who goes sugar crazy. My senses sharpen greatly to the point where I can hear someone taking a lolly out of its wrapping paper over a 100 metre radius !
One thing I don't really like at weight watchers are the meetings. Honestly I don't care what anyone else says but a carrot will never (NEVER) replace a chocolate bar !
They try too hard to convince me that we can replace some yummy naughty foods with healthy snacks such as raw veggies....I'd rather that they promote the goodness of veggies rather than making them sound like second best.
I love veggies and I'm happy to munch on a carrot or have a salad but it will never be replacement for anything else. Actually I made a stir fry for dinner and since I was hungry, I munched on some raw cabbage while cooking and it was quite alright, I just hope raw cabbage is not one of those primary methane producing food...

Oh, this is tricky. What did I say on Vee's blog? Something about 100g is nothing it's just your hormones? And I still believe that Vee! Is it going to sound too double-think if I chime in with "Yay! A whole 200g - that's a lot! Don't worry, it's probably really more, except... er..."
But I really do have one, and it's a serious one.
Are you exercising more? Because if you are, you're building muscle, whilst shedding fat. And whilst the scales won't tell you you've done great or anything, in reality you are raising your metabolic rate and are a whole lot healthier already.
But in case that's not enough...
Go Max! Yeah! You can do it!

Bea,
I'm visualising myself exercising at the moment so in effect I do build muscles in my mind, which in turn raises my spiritual metabolic rate...does that count ? :P
You know what--I'm just impressed that you're tackling weight loss at the same time as infertility. For me, all bets are off when I'm this stressed about one thing. So don't beat yourself up. I have vague memories of that being part of weight watchers too--not focusing on the bad day, but looking forward to keeping on points the next day.
Okay, and to admit that I am a total idiot when it comes to computers...how do I upload the wanker image into my blogspot side bar? I can't figure out the side bar at all. I wanted to add the thread campaign image as well and couldn't figure that out. Help?...
