133. Unrestricted Carbohydrates

So, popped over to Paris to see the Monet, as you do. It was tres froid a Paris, so I ate nothing but carbs and protein for 48 hours. Bliss. Then we got home and discovered it was brass knackers in London too, so I have felt no compunction in keeping up my high-carb diet. It's true that for lunch I had soup, but I will be undoing that goodness with the garlic-heavy penne bolognese I have planned for my dinner.

I do usually try to keep an eye on the balance of carbohydrates vs other things in my diet as if left to my own devices I would eat nothing but potatoes, bread, flesh and cheese all day every day. Plus the odd egg and a very occasional rocket salad. Oh, and some chocolate. I would be 25 stone and covered in zits but HAPPY.

But this is the real world so I don't weigh 25 stone and I only have a few zits and I'm quite happy thank you but a period of freezing temperatures and otherwise hibernation-inducing weather means carbs and lots of nice things to go with them. Slurp. I will work off the calories playing tennis on the Wii. Honest.
