The Chaperone

Today was one of the most enjoyable days out with Harvey that I can remember.  Well, literally, most enjoyable “afternoon” as I had to work his morning but it was from home which is always easier.

A great start to the day as I blended up the bananas, frozen berries, spinach and avoacdo with a tbsp of ‘Out of the Woods’.smoothie ingredients 16-4-15 I also added 5 dates to the last bit of smoothie to make a sweet topping to my smoothie.  It tasted lovely.Breakfast 16-4-15 This is what we did this afternoon.Call sheet Well, Harvey did, I chaperoned.Harvey in black tie We went to Salomon’s Estate near Tunbridge Wells, which I have never been to before and it was fascinating.  At the back of the stage is a huge Grade 1 listed organ.Salomons organ The stage was in The Grand Theatre of Science which had an interesting history.Grand Theatre of Science We were there to film a music video which will be televised between May and July.Clapper Board This theatre was so beautiful.OCS 15 There’s my boy, the tall good-looking one in the band!OCS 14 OCS 13 OCS 12 It was fascinating pottering about behind the scenes.OCS 11 OCS 10 OCS 9 OCS 8 It was great fun, being able to watch the filming.OCS7 Go Harvey!OCS 6 OCS 5 This would be a lovely spot to sit and have a drink in, especially if it was sunny.OCS 4 Nearly finished.OCS 3 OCS 2 All pop stars have to cope with interviews.OCS 1 This lot were no exception!H being interviewed We left on a real high albeit a hungry one.  I had packed some fruit and nuts to munch on during the day but we were hungry when we left.

I made these for supper.  The vegetarian burgers from the same company were good but these not so good.soysauges I had a celebratory whisky and ginger ale with my supper of mashed potato, salad and a soysage.  The soysage was very peppery but other than that a bit bland.dinner and whisky

I failed to be vegan today because I had butter in my mash and some mayonnaise and I had way too many calories too so tomorrow must be better.  Back to 801010 tomorrow.

About Lose Weight and Gain Health

Hi! My name is Zoe and I live in Hastings, East Sussex, with my son Harvey and dog, Milton. I have been fighting the fat for years but this time I am serious. I want to lose weight and gain health. This blog is about how I am changing my lifestyle so I can lose weight but not by just "being on a diet" but by making small changes to our lives so that as I lose weight, I gain health. I want my family to be healthy too and never have to struggle with their weight like I have. In common with many large people, I have gained and lost weight many times over the years. This time, I want to lose it and maintain a healthy low weight. I am interested in eating food that is nutrient dense and delicious and that appeals to children and adults. I do not eat animal products so follow a vegan diet. I try to use locally produced food supplemented with what I can grow myself. I support and try to use local farmers markets and farm shops. Another objective is to add more exercise to our days. It sounds so simple when I write it down :-)
