Did you ever hear the old urban myth that stopping smoking makes your weight balloon … ?
Yes …
Me too.
I’d always felt that there was a certain lack of foundation to that.
Was I ever wrong, there … !
You seen, I’ve been in to see my doctor, this morning.
And technically … ?
Well …
You’ve heard of the idea of Body Mass Index?
You take your weight and your height, divide them together, and the number you get is a rough guide to whether you’re underweight, about right, overweight, or morbidly obese.
I got …
Well …
Lets put it this way, it didn’t turn out as an especially healthy number.

Hmmm …
Now, I’ll happily admit …
I’ve walked away from that with — here’s the cliqué — Dr’s Orders …
Mostly to start eating more healthily: which, believe it or not, I’m trying to, and to take 45 minutes of exercise.
A brisk walk’s been suggested.
Gosh, I’m glad I managed to get those anti-inflammatories.
That should make that bit easier … !

I love it when someone comments. But, having had anonymous comments I feel may be libellous, actionable or just plain offensive, over the years?
I’d appreciate you* leaving your name — with a link to your website or social-media profile†, for preference — before you post a comment.
Should you choose to use a pseudonym/name, I’d appreciate it if that name were to be polite and inoffensive. I’d rather you kept it clean, and relatively grown up. Comments left with a pseudonym will be posted at my discretion: I really prefer a link.
Contentious, actionable or abusive posts left anonymously will not be posted. Nor will comments using offensive pseudonyms or language, or that are abusive of other commenters.
Thank you.
* I know many value their online privacy. I respect that. But hope you respect my wish to see who’s commenting on my blog: and my wish for you to introduce your self to me, and to your fellow commentors.
