New you in 2006?
Hi!
I love this time of the year - the time between finishing the Christmas shopping and Christmas Day. There's no reason to rush around the crowded shops any more and I can just potter around preparing to welcome guests on the day itself without caring what the weather is doing outside. (This is Scotland so its cold and damp).
This may be the last Christmas that my 8 year old son will believe (or pretend to believe - not sure which) in Santa so this year feels quite special. Quite amazed that his older brother has been so good at keeping it quiet!
Have a fantastic week and a very Merry Christmas (or a great holiday if you don't celebrate it)
Love

Feature Article : 30 Baby Steps to Success
You can blame your genes, your upbringing or your family but actually being overweight is down to only one thing - your habits. Do you recognise some of the following in your lifestyle?
How many have you ticked? More than a handful?
The more you ticked the harder it is to succeed on the kind of diet which demands a major life transformation. It takes iron will to suddenly become a paragon of virtue overnight.
But all is not lost. There is a way to succeed no matter how many habits you currently have which are keeping you overweight.
Take just one habit at a time and work on that until you have replaced it with a new healthy habit. For example, if you eat a lot of one particularly unhealthy food (say, sugar or chocolate or fries) cut down gradually and replace it with a healthier alternative. If you take no exercise, gradually start to move more during the day.
Taking the gradual approach may not fit in with the grand schemes you have for altering your body overnight, but it will work, it will be permanent and you will be able to do it without turning your life upside down.

Recipe of the week : Chocolate Banana delight
Worth having a light dinner to save room for this easy dessert.
Serves 4
3 tablespoons corn flour
1.5 tablespoons cocoa powder
1.5 tablespoons sugar
425 ml (3/4 pint) semi-skimmed milk
Slices of banana (2 or 3 bananas) to serve.
Mix the flour, cocoa powder and sugar with 2 tablespoons of the milk to form a smooth paste. Warm the remaining milk in a pan and just before it boils stir in the cocoa mixture. Continue to stir until the mixture boils then reduce the heat and allow the sauce to simmer for about 30 seconds still continuing to stir. Check for sweetness and add more sugar if required. Put banana slices into 4 dishes, pour the sauce over the bananas and serve immediately.
