1 Apply 2019 : Blog

Since the bathroom scales are only used once each month sometimes happy surprises may occur. I am very pleased with my weight reading of 75.0 kilograms for Pearn 2019. It appears that there was sufficient walking done to balance out the shifting house feasting season plus the week of cautious eating pearfection.

The amount of caution in the month of July is variable. Certainly is is not a month of culinary discipline like Januberry or Mayndarin. The first July after giving up cigarettes we called “Apply”. Other July’s we have called it “Pie” or “Junk-ly”.

When choosing themes it is necessary that some of the months do include favourite foods, even notoriously fattening foods like chocolate, cheesecake or crisps because it isn’t realistic to never eat them. Imagine that, never eating them never ever again. You are right, surely no one could have that good an imagination? Eating them sometimes is a very good idea. Over a long period of time just like other foods, even lettuce, less of the indulgent foods are wanted as well. The portion size of them gradually reduces.

This month’s eating theme for me incorporates my favourite breakfast… meat pie with tomato sauce. This year I am going to have a meat pie with tomato sauce for breakfast each second day. This compares to having this breakfast each day in the past. I am guessing that this breakfast type each second day will be enough for my current body shape.

I am also going to make sure that the presentation of my meat pie with tomato sauce is as good as I can make it. On a plate with a serviette and to be eaten at a table.
