Day 63 - just a Day in the Life

After a hard week I 'needed' a boost and therefore my weigh in this time was key for me. I have been away in Barcelona on a business trip (pictures in my other blog - link below) with some colleagues who enjoyed the food and drink in fine places. I joined in the company but abstained from the fun. This was really difficult in such a relaxed atmosphere.

The only light relief I was able to get (and no calories) was a visit to the local Casino attached to the hotel. In there I won €400 playing blackjack, so someone up there was looking after me and wanting me to have some fun!

So to the weigh in. Amazing, I have loss a further 6.2 pound in the week, making my total weight loss to over 4 stone. I am, of course, overjoyed.

A song about life and a great song too. No more, no less. Enjoy life, I am.

I read the news today oh boy
About a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph
He blew his mind out in a car
He didn't notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen his face before
Nobody was really sure
If he was from the House of Lords
I saw a film today oh boy
The English Army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
But I just had to look
Having read the book
I'd love to turn you on

Woke up, fell out of bed
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup
And looking up I noticed I was late
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke
And somebody spoke and I went into a dream
