Good Luck Nessie

I have been forced onto a diet due to my MS but the big thing that has made the difference has been the Booze. As I now have to be Teetotal I have actually lost weight, I think it is because when you have a drink you also get the munchies. But also I have a better night sleep (took a couple of weeks as I thought drinking got me to sleep) and I now get up with abit more urgency (this time not from the booze, if you get the drift).

I love Chocolate and now eat only Plain, I tend not to eat so much as it feels my urge quicker. Cheese is my problem, and still have not found a solution to that one!

As for exercise, very hard to get motivated due to the pain which is worse when I fall over (I can not blame the booze now), my fault usually as I get too 'Cocky' and think I can do more than I should and end up getting too tired.

Anyway, I have to start swimming soon as I have lost a stone and a bit so have no excuse and actually looking forward to it.

My biggest achievement so far has been the money saved from the booze, I have been able to start a Home Course on RHS Level 2 Horticulture, which fills my time in the evening.

So I suppose make yourself a goal and treat yourself to a new trowel or something.
