You know when I was a lad we had our pocket money and so the trip to sweet shop was a real treat. Holding my sixpence I would stare wide eyed and choose from the large array of sweets. Fruit salad and Black Jacks. Mojos, Bazooka gum, flying saucers full of sherbet or the big yellow Sherbet fountains with the big stick or liquorice for dipping. That would have to last me all week. I come from a poor working class family and both Mum and Dad worked hard to put food on the table, so a trip to the Fish and Chip shop was a real luxury as such a treat was very expensive. So I think being able to afford chocolate, sweets and take away food, every day if I want to, has not only made me fat but also took away the ‘Special’ factor of such things. Being with Slimming World does not ban me from such things, but has returned them to being real treats. We have not had Pizza since starting our diet in June, so tonight we are going to the cinema and having pizza for tea. A REAL TREAT and I am going to enjoy every mouthful .
