Well, day one was OK. I stuck to the plan and didn’t have any ‘blips‘. I had told myself that it was OK to struggle on the first day and that I should just stick as close to the diet plan as I could. But, I didn’t go off track. The food itself was lovely….

Back to the track
The latter part of 2017 wasn’t fun. Shortly after starting the anti-anxiety medication I had a bad experience with a new GP. If you find a good GP, don’t move, even if you have to travel to see them. I was described as a drug addict by the new GP and refused a new prescription…
Low Carb – Chilli
So I promised you a recipe, and here it is. This is one I’ve found and adapted over the last few weeks in an attempt to get it ‘right’. It’s originally from an American recipe so I’ve been running with it using American measures. Oh, and there is an optional twist, one that I can…

Be Prepared! Be Lazy!
So tomorrow the diet starts. The thought is a bit scary, but also positive. All I can ask of myself is that I do my best and avoid temptation. There are excellent reasons to shift the weight I have gained while being unable to exercise or even walk. I will be reminded every morning by…
Why One ‘Crazy’ Cook
It’s an excellent question. I suppose that in reality, I was just searching for a decent blog name. When I came to this one, I realised that there is only one of me, and with my mental health issues, I suppose some people could consider me crazy. I wear my ‘crazy’ crown with pride these…
