The "I'll Just Pretend I Don't Know I Haven't Posted for Ages" Post

Strangest thing - I'm trying to lose weight. Many of the people who've made my acquaintance in the past would scoff at this idea; I did not used to be the type of person who ever had to even think about losing weight.

It's the dreaded non-smoking that did it (of course - oh yes, that's sarcasm). Whilst not smoking would have surely slowed my metabolism I'm sure it is not the only reason for me being about 13kg heavier than when I stopped smoking.

So now that I am a confirmed non-smoker (confirmed non-smoker = more than 12 months since I stopped) it is time to do something about the spare tyre around my middle, and the love handles (don't really see the point in them since no one's there to hold onto the handles!), and the thighs that don't fit into standard shaped trousers. Mind you I do quite like the fat that is filling my bra at the moment - haven't had a rack like this since I was pregnant/breast feeding! (Yes, yes, I do realise it will be the first thing to go when I lose weight - sigh)


I have been making a valiant effort to lose weight, but so far the results have been less than spectacular.

Eli Stone is on TV now so the rest will have to wait 'til another evening.
