Why can't I stop thinking of pumpkin pie?

Having renovated a house recently, I can honestly say that watching paint dry is more exciting than attempting to diet. The last diet (remember Fat Smash: peas and lentils and lentils and peas) was ditched after four days. Four days! Instead we went to New York and tucked into pancakes (sky-high pancake piles soaked in maple syrup, accompanied by fried eggs and bacon), pizza and gigantic chocolate chip cookies. Only to be followed by the New England diet, i.e. lobsters and melted butter, corn on the cob and pumpkin pie. I know this is going to surprise you, but I STILL haven’t lost those last three pounds.

And I might as well keep them until next year. Winter is round the corner and we all need a thicker skin to hide under, right? Yes, little L is sleeping through and so am I, but as long as I am travelling more than a gypsy, I will not be able to establish a sensible diet. Let alone an exercise regime.

Next week, we will hit the road again. Grandma, the girls and my bigger brother are already awaiting us. As well as 1,400 miles on dark grey asphalt.

As soon as I am back, I will get moving again. Regaining control over my wobbly bits it by far more important than losing them. Plus, I think I am looking fine. I could look even better with a few pounds less, but at the moment I am not willing to pay the price.
