Keep at Your Target Weight Forever

 

Gail Hanlon from Is This Mutton with some of her healthy eating and diet books


Today I'm talking about keeping weight off once we've lost it. Weight loss is, I think you'll agree, sometimes the easiest part of it.  We're usually fired up and have a particular diet plan and regime, and, if things go well, we lose the weight.  I've done it many times.  But it's keeping the weight off that's tough, because if you're not careful, it comes creeping back.

Family Time in Devon - and Link-Up

I'm back after a week off.  My holiday started with a trip to London to celebrate our 11th wedding anniversary. We went to one of our favourite places, Dinner by Heston. This restaurant, which is in the Mandarin Oriental Hotel at Knightsbridge, doesn't offer the Heston Blumenthal "tasting menu" but instead a selection of classic British dishes which have been revived by Heston. Some of the more adventurous dishes were missing from the menu, which was a bit more streamlined.

Loneliness, Finding My Best Blues, Link-Up

It was a long weekend, with both a bank holiday and a day off on Friday, thanks to my company awarding us a day of care.  It was even sunny. But I'm dreading being asked if I had a nice time, and what I did.  The truth is, if it wasn't for my online life, I feel like a ghost drifting through life.
