And so it begins
The new year weight-loss programme begins today. Originally I wasn’t as against the whole thing as usual as my gut is becoming a problem. I wear a lot of t-shirts, and the majority of those t-shirts are medium in size. Most of those are currently unwearable for fear of looking like Matt Lucas in a PVC fetish outfit. So the plan was to embrace the diet and the regime like my life depended on it.
That was until I had my first ‘Mid-morning snack’ of vegetable juice, mixed with carrot juice, orange juice, lemon juice and watercress. I’ve never been a fan of vegetable in liquid form eschewing Bloody Marys and carrot smoothies in my time, and as I sit here with the rancid taste of pureed gherkin at the back of my throat I can tell this diet has a danger of being very short-lived. Sent off to the safety of work with my tub of vegetable spew there is a distinct danger that I will substitute it for a chocolate Hob-Nob.
To make things worse, Jess has woken with the mother of all black clouds over her head. It could be a very long (and unsatisfying) day.
