Posts Tagged ‘easter eggs’

Five years ago I went on a weight loss charge and lost close to 50 kilos – I’ll talk about it later, but the key difference is that I had a supportive wife who cooked meals to plan, so I didn’t have to worry about managing my food and more importantly meal planning, preparation and cooking. These days it’s a bit different being a single father (divorced).

One of the amazing things I found last time was that because I have detoxed my body when Easter came around and I indulged, I broke out in hives as a reaction to chocolate. I was devastated as a chocoholic that one of my favourite foods could do that.

So today is easter Sunday and I have consumed a fair bit of chocolate – not as much as previous years, but still a fair bit and I know I am going to have to work it off , or should I say walk it off, that’s the flip side of indulging. This weeks weigh in will interesting to see if I can counterbalance the indulgence with exercise. last week was great because I was on leave I could go for a mid morning or late afternoon walk, this week I need to a bit more structured with the pressures of work returning, speaking engagements, music rehearsals and the like.

I still reckon I can lose at least 1.5 kilos .. let’s see what happens!
