| Your time will come George. Just wait till I finish this cake... |
What's more, it's making me want to scoff comfort food like there's no tomorrow. Cake, chocolate, you name it, if it's stodgy, I want it. I've already had some toast washed down with tea and some mega ibuprofen and I've been hovering vulture-like in the kitchen on and off all morning.
Geneen Roth, if I read her book right, encourages the 'emotional eaters' who attend her Breaking Free workshops to eat what they want when they want it, even if it means gaining weight in the short term. Ultimately, she believes, this lead to successful long term weight loss and control.
Sounds eminently sensible to me (having just scoffed a giant wedge of sponge cake).
However, if the fridge is empty by 5pm, I'll be having words with Ms Roth. I'm all for a bit of research but...
PS. It's National Cupcake Week too. What terrific timing. ;-)

ooh, does this mean I don't have to waste any time feeling guilty about the fish supper I consumed last night (washed down with a couple of glasses of wine, naturally) after spending a Sunday pottering about the East Neuk of Fife? If so, lovely!
Am with you on the George Osborne thing though. His time must surely come. But first, more cake...
No guilt - ever. Not on my watch. It doesn't make you slim, so what's the point?
If being nice to yourself means enjoying a fish supper - go right on ahead. Just leave room for cake.
