“inch by inch I got rounder and rounder”
Swore the dryer was shrinking my clothes and bought new ones
in a larger size, inch by inch I got rounder and rounder until last Christmas,
when I weighed myself and to my horror I was the same weight as my boyfriend
Aghhhh!
So, I decided “that was it!”
I had to make some dramatic changes to my eating habits and
the old expression….”eat like a King in the morning and a Pauper in the evening”……echoed
in my mind.
"I just ate my largest
meal too late"
I didn’t eat badly or even unhealthily I just ate my largest
meal too late, so I returned to my childhood meal timetable and ate my largest
meal at lunchtime with a small breakfast and a traditional teatime favourite in
the evening.
“lost 1 stone straight off the bat”
To my delight, I only have to cook two main meals a week,
which meant more time in the evening. I froze portions for my work lunchtimes
and prepared salads to break up the week, and of course, I had all those childhood
teatime favourites like beans on toast, egg salad or tuna sandwiches and fish
fingers.
I still have large bunch on Saturday and Sunday mornings
with sausages or rashers or salmon with eggs, salad and fruit. And weekend
treats popcorn, drinks and teatime treats.
Yes, I did go to the gym but nothing too full on, only two nights at aqua
aerobics (without himself obviously) but we both lost 1 stone straight off the
bat, and loads of extra time on weekday evenings.
So, its win win…and something everyone should give a go to
lose some extra pounds
