Tea? (Part 2)

[Speicher]

So you have eated five Toffee crisps?

This is why I go to the Greengrocers for my chocolate. He sells a small selection of chocolate in ones.

OK- I am male

5ft 8ish tall and 'fairly' active, cycling, manual job etc, how many points am I allowed?

Unfortunately I have no idea, and no method of finding out.

The only man I know who is following the WW diet, and who I know well enough to ask, is about six foot tall and not active at all, so that would not help you.

<pssst> Just tell him he's allowed 4 points fewer than you are....

The difference I have found is in changing to wholegrain bread, and brown rice etc, as they are more filling than their "white" equivalent. Also eating more fruit and vegetables.

Oh dear, why didn't I think of that?

If I was you, I might join on-line, for a month, and find recipes you like, etc. I do not buy any of the branded food*, or the gadgets like the scales etc. You could see how it goes, and lose twelve pounds in the process.

* Except for one box of "Nutty" bars, that are like Tracker bars, but smaller, and not quite as sweet.

Arch, I am sure you have noticed how expensive knitting patterns are now. I found this site by accident, knitrowan.com that has a good selection of patterns free to down-load. Thought you might be interested to see it, if you do not already know about it.

Oh, cheers, some nice looking little projects there!

I have seen "free to download" patterns on-line before, but they were mainly scarves, or shawls etc or little coats for dogs, not very exciting and who needs a pattern for a scarf. I expect the more complex ones are the ones printed on the ball of the wool, but you can see the pattern first, and choose, or use up your own wool.

I will keep an eye out for other on-line ones, Sirdar do not appear to do them, but I think I have seen another one.

Very quiet in here today. I would put the kettle, but it does not suit me.

The consultant said I can take the splint off my finger during the day, but wear it at night, or if doing anything "violent".

I thought it would feel better, but it feels much worse. It is stiff, swollen, puffy, very itchy and not nice.

Fortunately today is doughnut day.
