Good Food Magazine wouldn’t sue, would they?
Quite remarkably and in the face of all the garbage I’ve eaten in the past week I found on Monday that I’d lost six (SIX!) pounds since my last weigh-in, seven days previous. Having gained two pounds the week before, I’m now at an overall weight loss of four pounds (after three weeks). Before I get carried away I have to remind myself that this is still 18st 9lbs, or 118.6kg. But at least I’ve lost some weight now, and feel much more motivated to keep losing it.

I'm A Big Stupid Goat
Disclaimer: I don’t hate my job. I wanted to make that point clear in case anyone I work with read my last post, or indeed happens to read this one.
As I hit ‘publish’ after writing my last blog entry, I realised something. I had described myself, with somewhat reckless abandon, as a bitter 28 year-old trapped in a career I’m not entirely happy with.
Instantly my thoughts turned to the ideas I’d already had for my next blog, where, I’d decided, I would describe the idea for my novel and specifically the main character and narrator; 27 year-old singer-songwriter and former accountant Jack Smith, who within the first three thousand words meets a beautiful glamour model who changes his life.
