Good Taste


I'm two weeks into my diet and I'm now into my groove
Ok, I had one wobble when I heard McDonald's had reopened its drive through!!!!
But the single cheeseburger and fries was a bloody well deserved treat as I had just left home to go one my third of five shifts last week.( I had ate most of it before I had got onto the A55 for work!!)
The rest of the fortnight, I've been eating healthy and with extra taste 

I finish my 60 hour night stint this morning and will not buy a scotch egg when I go to Sainsbury's on my way home, but will buy fruit and turkey steaks and veg.
I also need to buy Hattie And her boyfriend some provisions as they are self isolating in the village
Covid maybe on the wane in certain parts of Britain but in North Wales numbers are still just pushing past their peak.

Like many people I have had a strange relationship with my weight over the years
Bad times I put weight on. Content times I've put weight on.
Better times I lose it and thank God, stop farting when I bend over!!!!
It's time to lose the weight now, especially as lockdown has complicated the issue somewhat.
Shift work is a problem too, but one that can be worked on with effort.

Drink piles of low calorie, non carbonated juice and make sure your food is tasty
That's the secret, it's not rocket science.
Tonight I had a massive papaya, tomato and mozzarella salad ( tiny slivers of cheese added when turkey is hot)
Topped with pieces of turkey which had been dry fried after being marinated in soy, ginger, garlic, chilli and a tiny bit of honey
Bloody lovely

I take after my grandmother, she was big boned and probably could wrestle a pig into submission if the need arose, and so I will never be a waif.....that I understand
But I've lost four stone before quite easily and will do so again the remainder of this year

It's my last goal post divorce! 

What Would Your Mother Say?


I watched a video of some of the far right so called football lads protesters crossing Hyde Park today.
I was reminded of that terrible footage of the chimps in Jane Goodall's documentary of a few years back as one domineering tribe attacked another more peaceful group of apes
These men/boys acting as animals
Obviously harnessing and enjoying the aphrodisiac qualities of anger and excitement a score of  young men stamped and pushed and spat on people sat in the sunshine

All I wanted to say to each one of them
Face to face
Eye to eye
For what it's worth
" Your Mother Would Be very proud of you"
