The eat-free diet

Leeks, parsnips and Jerusalem artichokesOn the menu tonight:

• Parsnip, onion, porcini and Jerusalem artichoke soup (tastes a lot better than it sounds)
• Ham, potato and leek casserole

Bit of a calorie nightmare, but probably just about within the bounds of my new diet. I’m now into the action phase of my face-facts-you’re-fat campaign.

Somehow, I have to lose half a stone.

    Half a stone. HALF A STONE. Is that *All*? You could do that in 2 weeks! Drink more water, walk a bit and watch your portion sizes. Easy peasy lemon squeezy.

    Oh, incidentally, I’ve read a lot of articles about the wonder that is dark (79-85% at cocoa at least) chocolate. Good for your brain, heart, mood, concentration, energy etc etc etc. And they say you can eat between 20-150g of the stuff on a daily basis. New Chocolate Diet for me it is…

    The dark chocolate sounds like a great plan, Lucy. I’ll get cracking immediately.

    But I fear it won’t be as easy as you say. It can’t be that easy… can it??

    hey,

    the chocolate idea sounds too good to be true….. thats because it is.
    high cocoa is almost like a form of laxatives it really will make you go to the loo… alot.

    or so my dad and sister found out haha.

    i dont know if its as bad as it sounds and i certainly hope its good for teh heart and brain that would be a miricle! haha i could do with as much as i can get. pity i dont liek dark chocolate eh?
