I'll win

 

Thank you to everyone who messaged regarding my weight gain and all your advice and suggestions. I'm still a member of Noom and it's worked for me last year so that's my plan. Although.... My brother in law enticed me into a competition. The first one to lose a stone gets a slap up meal paid for by the other. I thought it might just kick start my plan so I accepted. Of course i have no hope of winning, and I'll tell you why. 

- women's bodies are designed to hold on to their fat for pregnancy and breast feeding so a man, generally, loses weight easier and quicker than a woman.

- my B-i-l is competitive. Me, not so much.

- my B-i-l likes to exercise. Like, he really likes it and doesn't just do it because he has to. Me, not so much.

- my B-i-l can resist chocolate, cakes, biscuits, chips, burgers etc. Me, not so much.

However I was sensible enough to put in a second clause. The winner has to keep the weight loss off until we all meet up (hopefully in May) and the loser has to still lose a stone by May. If clause 2 is broken the defaulter has to also buy coffee and cake. Hope this makes sense. It does in my head.

So, somehow we have 3 months of free Disney+ channel and we (i.e. my hubby) wants to make the most of the 3 months and watch everything (that is everything he wants to watch. Me, not so much). This channel in spite of the name does stream adult type programmes and movies, as well as kids stuff but we started off with a kids movie last night. Ron's Gone Wrong. It was really good and very funny. Is that normal though? I mean we had no kids with us. It was just 2 grown up people watching a kids movie and loving it! Should I be worried? 

I should have had this photo for last week's post really but I guess it's better late than never. My 4 pairs of cosy socks. Or at least one of each pair. I only have 2 feet so I had to borrow 2. It was far too difficult borrowing 4 more feet to get all the socks in the snap, hence one of each. Can you guess which are mine? A clue - they are not the really hairy ones lol. 

When life gives you melons you might be dyslexic.
