Water v Alcohol

My New Years Resolution was to drink more water.

I Drink no where near the recommended 2 litres a day.

Did you watch the program with Lisa Tarbuck in, ‘the truth about food’ they did an experiment with identical twins, and proved that if you eat a balanced diet with plenty of fruit and veg, that you didnt need to drink 2ltrs a day. it can be seen here

Then today I received this information and wonder if I really want to drink more water 🙂

WATER
It has been scientifically proven that if we drink 1 litre of water each day, at the end of the year we will have absorbed more than 1kilo of E coli bacteria found in faeces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop! However, we do not run that risk when drinking Wine (or rum, whiskey, vodka, beer or other liquors) because alcohol has to go through a distillation process of boiling, filtering and fermenting and also alcohol kills the Escherichia coli bacteria. 
So …
Water = Poop 
Alcohol = Health
It is better to drink wine and talk sh^t than to drink water and be full of sh^t. There is no need to thank me for this valuable information; I am doing it as a public service.

 

Found another good blog today

Wife in the North  is a must read her post today brought tears to my eyes.

Jogging again !!

After months of not Jogging I seem to be catching the bug again.

Have been out 3 times since Saturday and it certainly makes me feel good.

Only doing a 2 mile circuit from home and its taking me about 23 min’s so not very fast, but I am not doing it for the speed. I do it because its the best form of relaxation I know.

I think the reason I stopped going was that my boys started coming with me and it stopped being relaxing, also I tried to keep up with them which was an impossible task, so I pushed myself too hard and started getting some little aches and pains.

So now I keep sneaking out the house with out them. 🙂

As I am only 6 lb from my target weight at slimming world I am sure this will help me on my way too, BUT I did eat 2 hot cross buns today which wasn’t good, but they were delicious
