I rock!
Gee I’m good – if I may say so myself. I started a new cardio routine at the gym yesterday and, although I thought I was going to die at one stage, I managed to work through it and I felt so good! I rock! I am the best! I can’t tell you just how invigorating it feels to accomplish a cardio task....

Trying new things
In an effort to stay wheat free, but also not miss the foods I like to eat, I bought some wheat free pitta breads. They are the worst things I have ever tried. Well, maybe not the worst, but nearly. They can’t be folded because they break, so when I went to make pitta bread roll ups to take to work...

I’m over thinking of meals
I get bored with food. With normal every day food that is. I enjoy exotic combinations and preparation intensive meals. However these days I have so little time that I can no longer put these meals on my weekly menu. So I’m limited in my choice of meals. Limited not only by time, but also by my...

Stretching the shopping budget
Food is not cheap these days and sometimes the healthiest foods are more expensive than their less healthy counterparts. For example, white bread with practically no nutritional value is cheaper than the bread with added vitamins or grains. The most expensive breads are those made with non-wheat...

Waist 34 inches – a loss of half an inch since last week. Hips 38.5 inches – again, a loss of half an inch since...

Homemade pizza – yummy!
Last night we had homemade pizza for dinner. It was the best ever. We, or rather I, always make the base from a packet mix. My son hates getting the dough all over his hands, so I knead it while he adds flour to the bench and my hands. Usually I wear disposable gloves but I had run out of them. The...

Craving for icecream!
As I mentioned in my “Suddenly Seeking Something” blog today, work provided a gourmet hamper of food for us while we watched the Melbourne Cup on the big screen. Luckily the food provided was reasonably healthy. There was cold chicken, ham, salami, sausage and smoked salmon, green salad, coleslaw...

Goodish results
Well, I’ve lost a kilo, but my measurements haven’t changed much, so my news is goodish. I’m now 71 kgs, my bust hasn’t changed at 35 inches, my waist has decreased by half an inch to 34.5 inches (still more than a couple of weeks ago) and my hips are the same at 39 inches. I do feel a lot better...

Weekend menus
I like my weekends to be relaxing when it comes to food. I would prefer easy to prepare food rather than anything that requires intricate cooking methods. I often end up eating only two meals on a weekend because I put off having breakfast until lunchtime. Sometimes on weekends I make cooked...
