Guess.. gone on, have a guess as to what those scales showed!

She's fast approaching the dizzy age of sixty six, yes folks.. sixty six. Not eighteen and doesn't know bettter, in fact, when she WAS eighteen, she never did this.. because she was as slim as a reed and had a waist of nineteen inches and retained that waist measurement for a very long time.

What am I wittering on about? Bread, that's what I am talking about. Her and Bread. Good bread to her is like Catnip to a cat. It is something to which that she has become, literally, addicted to and has to learn to stay away from.

For besides putting on weight, it has an unpleasant side effect in which it slows down her digestive system.. if you get my drift.. and whoops.. she gets 'problems' again. She uses a lovely chemists in Sloane Street, has done so for years and yesterday she went in with her prescriptions to pick up the next months supply of eye drops.

The lovely woman who works there was looking wonderful! She had just returned from holidaying in Jamaica and had had a glorious time. They chatted and mama said something about slimming and how bread was so evil for her. "Me too, I am on the same routine, I've lost over three stone but have walked away from bread entirely, it causes me all manner of 'problems' like you" said the lovely woman.

They chatted about the system which allows you to eat everything.. in moderation! So today, she's going to cut up the remains of those glorious loaves and feed it to the birds in the park. For the scales showed a gain of 3.5lbs yesterday.. yes, 3.5lbs.. gulp!

She's back over ten stone again.. to 10.1lbs.. and has no one but herself to blame.. oh dear, no more toasty crunchy crusts for me. ByeBye Bread.. ByeBye.

GeeGee Parrot.
