One day, it must have been spring, I decided to lose some weight. You have to be slim for slim cut shirts. So, I had to find a way to eat less, at least for dessert, I had tried to have no dessert at all, but this didn’t work out well, it just made me cranky, and so, in order to keep some of my friends, I tried to eat just half of my crème brûlée or my panna cotta or whatever I was having for dessert, but this didn’t work out either. You cannot stop in the middle of something, can you? What idiotic concept is this? I then tried tiny portions. For instance, these ridiculously small things from Sprüngli. They made me burst out into tears. They seemed to mock me. So I gave up desserts altogether. Cold turkey. Now, I’m unbearably cranky, but quite slim.
Wonderful story Jan 🍰

Anything sweet is my downfall but I also want to fit into my clothes so I can totally identify with your fashion and dessert dilemma. Although your stunning plate with those desserts looks so beautiful, I would be tempted to refuse it out of aesthetic reasons.

Noooo! I feel for you. Well you’ve done it the wrong way round. Don’t give up the desserts, cut down on all the other, lesser foods. That’s my strategy.

Oh the pain and tension: we want our sweets but need to be trim!! Why can’t we just enjoy life without repurcussion?
