So today we had a BBQ. A lush one at that. I know it's February but 16 degrees is June weather round here and if you happen to know my dad he's probably moaning that today was our summer and it's all down hill from here, so we took the opportunity and put another shrimp on the barbie!
Embers :)
Just the smell of the charcoal embers were enough to hint that spring is round the corner. I am such a winter lover, snow, frost, Christmas, I just LOVE it all but more and more each year I am looking forward to the spring springing and being able to get outside without the fear of breaking your leg before you've even made it to work!
Our bbq was sooo tasty. Diet friendly too before I get moaned at!
Love how blinded Tom is by my unnecessary use of the flash.
The diet is going well (so well it's weirding me out!) 24lbs off in 7 weeks for each of us now, which we are both really happy with! It has made giving something up for lent somewhat harder though. Chocolate, crisps, takeaways & anything else lovely have already been banished for the diet so I have really had to think hard about something that I should ditch. I have decided (after much deliberation, hence I am 2 days late on starting!) that I will not do any shopping other than food shopping till Lent is over. I am scared already! Which means it was probably a good thing to pick. I am by no means a shopaholic, lets be honest, when you're this overweight clothes shopping can only be an horrific experience so clothes aren't really an issue but I do spend unnecessary money on 'bits'. Seemingly alot of the odd coffee here, magazine, cushion, jewellery, nothing overly expensive but that all adds up. I'll keep you posted.
One Thing I Know For Sure: I am looking forward to a skinnier summer :)
