Morning all. A surprising 4.9, the meter agrees. I’ve had four unicorn days in a row, and I know why. I’ve cut out chocolate! I eat far too much of it and it’s becoming a bad habit. I’ve replaced chocolate bars with one dark chocolate digestive, I can’t go cold turkey I’m afraid. So far so good. Maybe help me shed a few pounds, I’ve been around the same weight for about 15 years but I’d noticed my clothes were feeling a bit tight a few weeks ago, stepped on the scales, I’d put on about 5 pounds or so! Think a lot of it’s lack of activity. My back has been playing up since last November on and off so we haven’t been doing as many long walks or climbs. So, no chocolate, reducing portions and more walking, once this bad back stage is over. It’s actually feeling quite good today after yesterday’s bad start.
I need to go shopping today, think I’ll have to drag Mr E along, that’ll put a smile on his face, NOT! I’ve put it off for days but it’s big shop time, I do it monthly then just top up with quick trips. My freezers are looking bare.
@Wendal we have designated “jobs” that we’ve just fell into over the years. I cook, clean, wash, iron, shopping, birthday/ Christmas presents etc, he does the garden, DIY, car stuff. He can do my jobs, but as you said not to my standards, I can’t do his jobs! I’m the worst DIYer, believe me I’ve tried, I’m not allowed to do any painting whatsoever and that’s how I feel when he does the ironing or the washing! We’ve rubbed along ok too, it may seem old fashioned to some but if it works for you it’s fine.
Have a good day folks.
