<p><font size="1">I'm an addict.<br>
I didn't know it, but I am.<br>
Not to nicotine (any longer), or any other legal (or illegal) drug,
but to Sainsburys American Chocolate Chip Cookies. <br>
I am a firm believer that a little extra padding is imperative when
breastfeeding, but I think that I have long since expanded past
that excuse. I have taken some minor steps towards redeeming my
figure - after the charming sales pitch last month by Dale at Holmes
Place I have not only joined, but actually used the gym. (And not
just the steam room I promise!) Unfortunately, as the experts say,
it is only an increase in exercise and a decrease of calories that
will allow for weight loss. So it is time for me to face facts and
bite the bullet - no more cookies! For that matter, not much of
anything yummy. <br>
Consequently I am spending today not scouring the local Sainsburys
and deli's for delightful treats, but instead suffering painful
withdrawal symptoms after deciding after much deliberation that
I was desperate enough to try a Fad Diet. Yup, that's right, after
years of telling my friends and clients that fad diets are unhealthy
and unfounded, I have become a whole hearted convert to the thought
of losing a stone in a week. Just don't tell my Mum. <br>
After doing a bit of research, it seems that the quickest and most
effective diet on the market is Dr. Atkin's New Diet Revolution,
which, like the The Zone Diet promotes low carbohydrates as a form
of weight loss and maintenance. Dr. Atkin had my favour simply due
to two converts preaching the success they had had.<br>
I was definitely fascinated by Eat Right 4 Your Type which endorses
a diet tailored to your blood type. Except, not only do you need
to know your basic ABO blood group for this diet, but also your
'sector status', which requires a trip to your GP. Although I am
sure it is an effective and scientifically viable theory, it was
a little too fiddly for my liking.<br>
What I definitely want to avoid is the The Holy Slimmer Gwen Shamblin,
a cult American figure who promotes 'A Diet Made in Heaven' which
offers, amongst other things dramatic weight- loss, an unlimited
menu and eternal life. Her "Slim for Him" workshops are not run
in the UK yet, and I thank the Lord for it. If you are interested
however, check out her book, Rise Above, God Can Set You Free From
Your Weight Problems Forever. If the Lord was a kinder person I
would be checked into The Grove on Kensington Church St. for an
intensive detox programme. That is the healthy way to lose weight
in a hurry - they understand the pressure, offer daily support in
a myriad of ways and let you function, just about, in the real world.
<br>
Unfortunately I am suffering on my own with only a weekly personal
trainer, a book and a local gym to get me beautiful by next week.
If I see you at the local deli you'll see the results, should there
be results to see. Otherwise, I will be sure to let you know next
month. </font></p>
