Round about April time when I first thought of dieting (that is when I ceased to stroll and began to waddle and dieting could no longer be delayed) I decided I would diet until Jim's brother arrived from UK in December. That being many months down the track, surely I would be as skinny as a stick by then. Dream on.
So here we are in December, Jim's brother arrived on Saturday. I have been off the diet for two days AND I'VE ALREADY GAINED A WHOLE KILO! Having spent the entire day on my feet at the wildlife park feeding kangaroos I thought I deserved to have lost a little but it was not to be.
We finished the day with a trip to Freo. I nearly missed the train. My ticket came out of the machine just as the train arrived. At the same instant a gust of wind caught it and blew it down the platform into a hole being dug solely to annoy me. Jim jammed his foot in the train door while passengers shouted abuse and encouragement in equal measure. His swift action gave me time to stretch under the barrier, grab the ticket and heave myself (albeit in a very unladylike manner) onto the train.
There was no alternative but to calm myself with a trip to Baskin & Robbins and a scoop of honey butter baclava flavoured ice-cream. It was probably the low-cal version though, don't you think?
Current weight: 75.8 kg
