February-itis

2008 February 26

Argh! COME ON MARCH! This may be the shortest month (even with the addition of an extra day) but this month is dr…a…gg….ing. As I’ve said before I am not good with post-Christmas winter and as spring gets ever tantalisingly closer I just want it to HURRY UP! It does not help that dear Mr. Lacer has given me a cold, I’ve got pms, I’m on a diet which I hate and we have absolutely nothing planned this week or money to do it with anyway.

On the subject of the diet, I had ‘turkey bacon’ last night for tea and is there anything possibly less appetising than turkey bacon? I doubt it! I had to buy it from Sainsburys as Waitrose didn’t stock it, I’m not surprised now, I always see Waitrose as more of a foodie supermarket which sells ‘real food’ as opposed to preformed mashed up bits of tastless meat. I brought two packets of the stuff and I don’t care if I can eat as much as I want of it on this diet (Weightwatchers core plan), I quite simply don’t want to. After yesterday’s Sainsburys visit, sigh I much prefer Waitrose (I always have really), Sainsburys is full of non-food at so called ‘bargain prices’ all designed to part you from more of your money, whereas Waitrose beside a little bit of gift wrap and some newspapers sells nothing but food, now that’s what I like.

Roll on March, March we have a birthday party, a new music group for me and Boy Lacer to try on Monday afternoons, a psych appointment for Boy Lacer to (not quite sure that counts as entertainment though!), more so called book selling, a new group on Tuesday afternoons with the speech therapist for Boy Lacer to and of course Easter where %^&* the diet, I’m eating as much chocolate and hot cross buns as I like!

    Hi Mrs Lacer, As a foodie myself and someone who doesn’t like ‘pseudo food’, I’ve been having some success with Slimming World. I like that there are no prescribed foods, no calorie counting etc and I wondered whether you’d tried it?
    Sounds more fun than turkey bacon :-)
