I’m sitting here writing this nonsense and munching at my “delicious” lunch of basmati rice with just a drop of olive oil and a sprinkle of Parmesan ....trying to imagine a nice curry dish to eat along this rather fade lunch of mine....It's all my fault. Although I took on the challenge of notSupermum: The Big Momma Challenge 2011 : week 3 to help myself to lose a few extra pounds I put on in the last six months, especially over Christmas, already 3 weeks ago, it's only now that I’ve started taking it seriously. Now that's the challenge is something more than shifting a bit of weight but becoming a healthy eater and help myself to get over my digestion problems. In the last couple of weeks I tried to start eating better, avoiding my tea&biscuits – tea&cakes weakness, but I failed miserably mainly due to the fact that January seems to be the month of birthdays among my friends and family. I know it is not a good excuse, but how can you really refuse a lovely meal with friends, an afternoon tea to celebrate an anniversary or a glass of champagne offered by a colleague for her promotion? I didn’t manage that, not until yesterday, but now I have to, for the sake of my IBS and my physical health. So I thank notSupermum for the opportunity of joining a little group of ladies (men welcome too, I suppose!) who are trying to defeat their bad eating habits and get better....Update next week…Fingers crossed….
(No, this isn't a healthy diet plan...I fear...)
