LOST COUNT!                                         



Welcome to my weekly bog. For those that know me will know I have a cut off point when it comes to my weight............and I have reached it. Most people believe I am immune to weight gain being surrounded by my choice of Skinny Pills!  


                             

However the very reason I set up this company is because of my poor relationship with food. During Christmas and during my (40th eeek) birthday period I decided to give myself a break from Skinny Pills and just relax and eat cake!! And why not?? 




However I have now found myself tipping the scales seeing a number I dislike and my clothes are snug - very snug. In a bid to shed some weight I thought it was a perfect time to re focus as we await the arrival of our BRAND NEW Skinny Pill. Watch this space. 



More classy less trashy


Now is have turned 40 I have decided to give my wardrobe an overhaul. My issue is that I am a magpie, if it is sparkly and glitters, I just have to have it. Subsequently my wardrobe is full to the rafters of hardly worn/unworn sky scraper heels and spangly disco frocks!! This year I shall be following the less is more rule and investing in some classic pieces, that in theory I should wear more.

I’ve currently got my (less magpie more sparrow) eye on theses two pieces from Riess which is my fave shop right now. This gorgeous relaxed trench coat which will be perfect for work and the school run when the weather turns warmer, and this beautiful tan leather biker jacket, which can be worn to dress down a LBD or perfect teamed with black cigarette pants and killer heels on colder summer nights

My Mum and Dad gave me some money for my birthday so i’m going to treat myself! 


I don’t know about you but I am desperate for Summer to arrive. I have snowdrops in my garden and the nights are getting lighter but it still seems so cold out there. I suffer from SAD (seasonal aversion disorder) but have been OK this winter as I’m remembering to take my LotusBright.





This weeks food focus!


This week food wise I will be focusing on getting more vegetables into my diet. Unless I make a conscious decision to have vegetables I often make wrong food choices. I shall be cooking up some scrummy soups including this one. If I always have a big pan of soup on the cooker then I find whenever I am hungry I reach for this rather than the crisp cupboard.





Banksy is one of my favourite artists. I find his latest pieces in Gaza particularly moving. This picture showing a figure holding his head in his hands in apparent despair is particularly sad. I think anything that highlights the horror and despair that the people - particularly the children - are going through in this area of the world is only a positive thing. 

If nothing else it reminds us how unbelievably lucky we are and that gaining a few pounds here and there is completely insignificant to what is going on elsewhere. My thoughts and prayers are with these people.



This week I will be keeping a food diary to keep me on track. I personally love the My Fitness Pal App. Click here to read more....
