Just watched a fascinating programme on healthy diet comparing sugar v fat. The twins who were doctors certainly gained new knowledge which surprised them. The conclusion is that processed food containing 50/50 combinations of sugar and fat is the dangerous food that our brains crave. Sadly some of the deserts I like (e.g ice cream and chocolate brownies) are going to be missed as I try and shed half a stone. I'm not over weight but I don't like the waistline getting bigger and also having to carry this weight with me as I run. Plus I'd like to get back to something resembling a six pack!
Yesterday and today's swims will certainly help. Both were tough sessions pushing my fitness level as I try and improve at the most difficult element in triathlon. I'm getting to the stage of enjoying swimming again but I've a long way to in order to be fit enough to swim a 10km race in September. And by then I hope to have lost my excess weight and be back to my slim, lean self! Watch this space!
