You will have noticed I have not updated for a few days but have no feat I have not given up already. Basically I am finding it really hard to do CD and get used to the Metformin at the same time. This week I started on two Metformin a day and they have really wiped out, they make me sick and give me a bad stomach which would be ok if I had something in my stomach but because I am on CD I have just ended up in so much pain its crazy. I have being a bit naughty though and ordered a load of fruit so at least I have something in my stomach and hopefully won’t do too much damage and I am feeling better already. Anyway Whinge over ……………… for today anyway and I promise to return tomorrow with something a lot more interesting!

Ooops less then a week back into my new blog and already missed a day but when you spend all day writing the last thing you want to do jot down a load of crap that will bore you all. Anyway today has been a bit of a mixed day, had a visit from my health trainer and he’s got me up and exercising (you may have felt some small tremors if you live locally). He has taught me some new exercises to use with my weights and reckons I will have arms like Arnie in no time; I was going to tell him my right arm is already half way there but after I caught him checking out my ample backside I was worried he might take it the wrong way ……………..or should that be the right way if that’s how he likes it? Anyway next week we are apparently going walking no matter what the weather is weather is doing, can’t say I am looking forward to that at all!

Day three in the big blubber household and not a lot to report really, still sticking to the shakes but feeling like crap, mouth tastes like Jesus’ sandals, head feels like I have the cast of River Dance doing rehearsals on my temples and three times today I thought I was going over; Who said the Cambridge Diet was easy? Oh it was Anne wasn’t it lol.

Wow I cannot believe it has been nearly two years since I posted on here, I can’t believe I have spent so long faffing about making excuses to myself and everyone else when I should have been concentrating on important stuff like my health. It is so easy to fall into the trap of convincing yourself that you’re still on a diet when truth be told you are eating more crap then you ever did.

A good friend of mine has being moaning at me that I do not update this blog enough. I could argue with her but I know there is no point really because I mean we all know women are never wrong ……………. are they? I am sure that comment is going to get me a slap from said lady so I guess this is a win win situation; she gets her blog post and I get a free spanking!

A few people know about my past, these are people I class as true friends who I have no secrets from. A lot of people ask me about why I am like this and what is wrong with my legs etc so I have decided to tell you all a little bit more about me.

As you may have noticed I do not update this place very often these days but that is basically because nothing really changes. The diet is back on track and I am plodding along nicely. After talking to a close friend who is also on the Cambridge Diet I have had to adjust my targets slightly. I was aiming for two stone a month but apparently this is a little unrealistic and left me feeling a bit down because I was not meeting my own targets. From now on I am aiming for a stone a month, slow and steady, if anything else comes off on top of that it’s a bonus.

You may have noticed I have not updated this for a few days but that is basically because absolutely nothing as happened. Life is very boring and I have had to come off the diet for a few days to give some antibiotics a chance to kick in. Hopefully this will only be a few days and will not affect my next weigh in too much or I will be extremely Pee’d off.

Well I am back, did you miss me? Had two days from hell so not really being in the mood. Woke up on Thursday morning with a leg looking like a balloon and a face to match thanks to an abscess under a tooth. Had to take pain killers and antibiotics but because I am on no real food all they did was make me throw up. Had two days feeling sorry for myself and being ratty so apologies to anyone I may have been off with. Feeling better today so everything is back on track.

Why is it when you really don’t want to be thinking about food it is everywhere you go? Everything on the adverts makes my mouth water, even stuff I have never liked. On top of that I watch too many food shows, The F word, Masterchef etc etc. I turned to the net to avoid temptation and what’s on my home page . . . . bloody Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall teaching everyone how to cook the most gorgeous looking pork and crackling. Please please please someone invent a shake that tastes as good as that looks, it would make this dieting lark so much easier!
