Health Conscious and Hygienic
I am truly grateful for the fact that I am health conscious and hygienic. Yesterday I had some stomach cramps which I thought might turn out to be gastro or something like, but by the end of the day I was fine, I didn't even lose my appetite (although it wouldn't have hurt for a while), and today I am fine but my hubby isn't, he has had the runs and feeling a bit squeamish. I truly believe that the reason I don't get sick very often is because for one I am a clean freak, I'm forever washing my hands and of course shower each day and I loooooove my veggies, which of course is great for your system. I don't eat meat yet my iron count is high (higher than some carnivores) and I have never suffered from high blood pressure, which unfortunately my late sister and dad suffered from and now my younger sister has. I'm hoping I'm right in saying that by eating a variety of food that obviously contains less bad fats is good for you. However I am far from perfect, I do love the glass or two of wine each night and sometimes more and I'm a savoury person, so I like to occasionally snack on savoury snacks such as salty chips and Twisties, but lately when we've had them have regretted it so much that we have chosen not to purchase them anymore unless we are truly desperate. We are so proud of ourselves, we haven't bought or eaten takeaway food for three weeks. We haven't craved it and it helps that I am home and have more time to cook, which is a good thing and that is why while I'm home I am making food I can freeze so I don't have to do too much when I get home from work, especially in the first week back as I know for sure I am going to be exausted, mentally and physically. So far I have made Bolognaise, Matriciana sauce and some Prawn Dumplings for me, and I will attempt to make other non pasta sauce frozen meals, any suggestions from my followers or readers would be greatly appreciated. And another thing, if any of you know why it is that I am all of a sudden (post my hysterectomy) craving sweet things after my dinner please let me know!
