And the answer ....

Well if the weekly shopping list I wrote straight after my last blog is anything to go by then NO! No, i still do not care!

After 8 glorious, fun, relaxing weeks of indulgent feasting I was beginning to feel less like a sexy feline and more like a fat cat! So with that in mind the cakes, biscuits, chips, pizza have all hit the high road and its been hello to salads, stirfrys, fruit and that horrible stuff called veg.
But as every friend... sibling... parent... grandparent... stranger in the street... will tell you : "You aint gonna lose any weight by keeping your fat lazy ar** on the sofa!" Well, after hearing this on more than one occassion and from more than one person I quickly hit the ground running...... to the laptop that is! Where I disappointly found website after website that confirmed - exercise is essential, damn!

And so, on went the ipod, on went the headband, on went my tiny "look at my butt cheeks" shorts (which were wedging themselves firmly up my derriere) and on went my slightly baggy England footie shirt as I tempted to sweat it out on the Lateral Thigh Trainer. 10 minutes later and i could really feel the burn! Yep, my chunky, chubby thighs had started to rub from the get go and the friction was close to starting a bush fire!
[Please note: The last sentence may make The Good Food Guzzler sound a bit of a hairy mary but she does confirm that her garden is well trimmed and is rather fond of the Brazilian. Anyway back to blog]
Needless to say the first evening of exercise hadnt got off to the best start and it wasnt long til I was showered and sitting in bed with a hot chocolate (no whippy cream on top though! Look at me go!)

Its been a whole 7 (and a half) days since I started this new healthy eating and exercising debacle and I have to say it been alright... yes, just alright. Im eating enough healthy stuff to keep me full and satisfied and thanks to good old baby powder my thighs glide past one another without the need for Fireman Sam to be on call.

So here I am heading into week 2....optimistic that I can go another week without a Dominos, and dissapointed that after the last week my belly is still there!
