"Laugh or You'll Cry"

Went in my wardrobe this morning  and tried on some of my winter weight skirts, as its getting a bit colder, but not sure why everything is tight? This isn’t good. I know I have enjoyed a few sweets this summer & the odd fry up. But it will have to stop. Decide to play my Pilates dvd ( missing out all the hard bits)- but that hardly gets me in a sweat. Stop for lunch- then take a tiny weeny walk to end of road, stopping every few yards-taking a few photos on the way, another great excuse to stop.

Then back inside & flop on computer chair. Feeling quite peckish- in need of a sugar fix- but a cuppa tea will have to suffice.

The Physiotherapist suggested I go swimming. Ahh- what a palaver that is. . But I bought my new swimming costume; ordering a selection online & having to take a while getting that right look with a   ‘flattering tummy’ to suit a lady of my age & broadening stomach. Once the new costume was in the cupboard I then didn’t feel good for a while MS wise with funny feet, but few months later in the end  no excuses so took the plunge ( ha ha). Its all the changing -completely wears me out. Dressing undressing, so much trouble just for about 6 lengths in the pool. & when you climb out of the water your legs feel like lead. So I will try to lose these ponds any way except getting back in that pool. I used to enjoy swimming, but certainly not fun any more, especially since the local baths changing rooms have become communal- with NO cubicals.

So I think its going to be no biscuits, no fry ups, no sweets for a while.But  I’ll have to have steak tonight as its in the fridge -not a very good start. But it was on offer in Lidl & far to nice to freeze.

Perhaps I could just buy some larger skirts- now that might be easier.
