Hi
I've been having fun and games starting to create the new home for Simply Slimming on the web this week and wondering why I ever started, though the old web site is playing up sometimes and needs to be sorted out somehow.
Maybe a couple of weeks before Christmas was not the time to do it though, with all the cards to write, and a number of presents still to buy and wrap ...
I'll let you know when (if) I finally get there with the new site :)
Have a great weekend
Love
Janice Elizabeth

Feature article : A Successful Meal
What is a successful meal? I think a successful meal is one where
- you have an appetite and eat when you are hungry but not starving
- you enjoy every mouthful
- you eat slowly enough to enjoy it
- you have enough to eat but you leave the table satisfied not stuffed
- you eat healthy AND delicious food
- you have a balance of nutrients, eating some lean protein, some slow-release carbohydrate, some healthy fat
- you include some fresh fruit and/or vegetables in your meal - half your plate!
- you lovingly prepare real food or have it prepared for you rather than microwaving a ready-meal
- you eat in pleasant surroundings
- you enjoy your own company or share the meal with friends or family whose company you enjoy
If every meal was a successful meal there's no doubt that we would have fewer problems with obesity in the world. How many of your meals are successful meals? What would you have to do to have more of them? Better planning? Improve your cooking skills? Practise better eating habits? So often this time of year we decide to lose weight in the New Year and then give up a few weeks later. What if you decided to make every meal a successful meal instead? Not much hardship there is there, apart from a little effort in getting yourself organized? Why not give it a try? Copyright 2006, Janice Elizabeth Small
