It seems that I don't have to turn into Jabba the Hutt after all. I don't have to become a colossal behemoth pounding the corridors of time full of chocolate and toast
Today I was offered a spearmint chew and declined. Admittedly it was the fourth spearmint chew I'd been offered......the other three were delicious........but thats not the point
The compulsive eating (fag substituting) seems to have calmed. I'd be embarrassed to describe my food intake through week one....so I wont. But today....I ate bran, banana and natural yoghurt for breckie. Nothing at all untill lunch which was 2 salad rolls. Then there was the spearmint chew incidents in the afternoon.......(i'm allowing that)......and then nothing till tea when I cooked a delish, hot, and I imagine detoxifying penang curry...served with boiled rice. I now, at this moment, crave neither a ciggie, nor a biscuit. Hoorah and long may it continue.
So all in all....day 12 and still going strong. Hope everyone else is too.

The recipe for penang curry, you'll be pleased to hear, is very simple since its magic ingredient comes in a pot marked 'penang curry paste' bought from my little local chinese/thai food shop. (I hope you are lucky enough to have such a shop within your reach as I really can't 'big up' penang curry enough)
Other than that you fry up your ingredients of choice. I fry diced chicken with green beans and red pepper. Then pour over a tin of coconut milk, bring to the boil and drop in a dollop of the afore-mentioned paste. The size of dollop dictates the strength of the curry. I've noticed my dollops are getting bigger and bigger. I am cleansed
