Book A Day Challenge Day #10 - Latest purchase


10. Latest purchase......Make Your Own Diet Rules by Tara Stiles
I went for a wander round the new Foyles bookshop on Saturday and, unsurprisingly, I wanted to buy a number of books. I went for this one because it seems to set out an approach that I am eager to explore. I haven't really been a big trier of diets but there always seems to be a new miracle weight loss solution kicking about. I have been at extremes of eating but want to achieve the golden dream of sustainable weight loss/maintenance. Tara Stiles, from what I have read so far, seem to advocate listening to your body, enjoy live and take the time to take care of yourself through eating and action.

  1. I've just bought that book, too! We get so inundated by "experts" telling us what and how we should/shouldn't be eating, that lately that I worry I've fallen completely out of touch with my body forgotten how to just enjoy food and naturally make healthy choices! I'm really excited to read Tara's suggestions, I'd love to hear what you think of it, too :)

    1. It does sound like a great attitude and pa hopefully part of a progression away from the should/shouldn't! I'll post a review when I'm done :-) I look forward to hearing your thoughts about it as well.
      Thanks for commenting x

Book A Day Challenge Day #8 - It's a mystery!

8. It's a mystery........The New York Trilogy by Paul Auster I was given this as a gift many years ago and I read it with great trepidation. It was wonderful, all twisty and it made my then-young brain hurt. I really should re-read this soon...

Fresh Start

I have been using my social media accounts attached to this blog more than I have been updating here and when I looked back at the content had very little connection to my interests now. So I have cleared the posts out, with the exception of my old book challenge, and shall start afresh! So with that in mind....a brief introduction: Reading is my comfort and my joy and I will usually have 2-6 books on the go at any one time. My reading habits hop around somewhat in terms of subject matter, at the moment my current obsessions are American History and magical realism fiction. Last year I tried to cut down my book buying habit and ended up with a bit of a library habit! This year, all ten days of it, I've been reading with a focus on mindfulness and growing out of your comfort zone.
