My Kingdom for a Carbohydrate!

Okay so I have been SO GOOD lately. Decided that this was going to be the year of living healthy (didn't everyone promise themselves that!?!) Anyway have been doing the Celebrity Slim diet for nearly 2 weeks and my god I am CRAVING a carbohydrate - ANY carbohydrate will do! The reason I started it to be honest was that I won 3 starter packs from www.mintshot.co.nz so decided I might as well use them, and being typical me jumped in boots and all. Have been following the diet (virtually) to the letter (hey I AM human) but have not seen a potato, a piece of bread, rice, pasta, a scone, a single chip or even a cracker for 12 days and starting to go a bit nuts on it.

Have also been drinking 2 litres of water a day and whilst I am feeling incredibly virtuous and definately feeling better for it (apparently according to Ian my butt is much tighter !!?!?!) I honestly don't know how much longer will be able to stay at this extreme level of virtuousity! - those who know me know that virtuosity is NOT one of my virtures - let's jut say I can resist anything but temptation - so will keep being good but not going to go overboard - will give myself another week or so and then on my birthday it is ALL OVER - I have realised that the water thing is actually quite easy - esp in summer but honestly the cravings for other foods are out of control..... i am sure I actually dreamed about macaroni cheese the other night....

Anyway there is ANOTHER reason for this sudden health kick - have found I am on hold for a TVC that I auditioned for in December (have moved up from the "recall" stage) so still awaiting confirmation from my agent and if that comes through have decided will really try and tighten up and maybe some more adds will come my way.

It is lovely that Ian does not care one way or the other but I AM proud of myself that I have stuck it this long - just don't come near me with a french fry or I will NOT be responsible for my actions.
