Weight a while.

Tweet

I don’t often weigh my body - it’s a man thing, and anyway seeing numbers on a scale doesn’t really tell me anything I don’t already know. But over the past few months I’ve been a lot more particular about my intake - amount and content. This is to keep cholesterol in check and avoid medication. But I did weigh my body this morning and I’m 5 kilos lighter than what I had come to expect as normal for me. I’ve a few kilos still to lose to satisfy the internets opinion of what my ideal weight is, but I’m sure those sites are sponsored by companies selling weight loss products. And just this week my lady friend with whom I have been married for 41 years got a pleasing shock in what is traditionally a female preoccupation. She went to an early Christmas dinner with friends, wearing the same dress she wore to last year’s event. And what do you know, this year the dress felt quite loose on her so she had extra dessert.
