Saturday morning saw me awaken with an abnormally scratchy throat, something I don’t generally suffer from any more as a non-smoker (and if I sound smug it’s because I bloody well am) but by the end of the day it had escalated from that into what appeared at the time to be a full body shut down, [...]
You may have to forgive my indulgence for the next few days, but if you are interested, I thought I write a little catalogue of our trip to Amsterdam. When we went on Holiday to Oxford last year I rather enjoyed writing about it, and it will serve as a nice reminder of what was [...]
Hello there! Yes, that’s right, Ellen and I are back from Amsterdam. And yes, thank you, we did have a lovely time, and we ate our body weight at least twice a day for the duration of the whole trip. I’m not going to dwell too much on the trip itself, as I’ll be doing [...]
Today Ellen and I are off on holiday for five days to Amsterdam, and after careful consideration (by which I mean one quick conversation where we were in total agreement) we have decided to suspend the diet for the duration. Not completely, we are going to try and remain sensible, not piling in and out of [...]
Since I have been so utterly terrible at updating this year, I could very well have not bothered and you would nary have noticed a thing, but I just wanted to say that I am not going to be around at all next week. Instead, I shall be celebrating my birthday (31! How the bloody [...]
It’s been a pretty big year so far, all told. I don’t really need to go into it, I’m sure you’re well aware. However, Year of Health has recently lost Ellen as a contributor, and to be honest has not been updated nearly enough. One of the issues is that it’s not the most wildly [...]
One of the things that’s become more and more apparent to me as I go through this whole process is how easy it is to lose yourself in it, and find yourself obsessing more and more about every detail. For instance, in my last post I mentioned that I had lost a stone and a half at [...]
First things first. Today I measured my weight (Saturday morning is my official weekly weigh-in time) and I have now achieved a total weight loss of a stone and a half! So the momentum is back with me again. I must admit that there was a while there when I was starting to lose faith in this [...]
