I should be glowing like a lighthouse!
Well, I am beaming. How nice to read a healthy living article and say, yup, yup, having that, doing that, yup!

OT - after Dad had a shunt inserted last year (year before maybe!) I researched and sent him a list of cholesterol lowering foods. Not the little drinks or spreads advertised - properly reseached and proven natural ingredients to bring him within guideline levels.

No brainer, right? Look Dad - you can lower your cholesterol BY EATING!
And he loves fruit and veg, loves fish, cereal etc.

Asked Mum the other day on the phone if he was still paying any attention to it. Nope. He took it to the supermarket for about a week, then forgot about it. Mum says, "You tell him - he won't listen to me!" So it's back to the drawing board. Sigh. Maybe I'll find the Tesco version of Super Naturals (the healthy ready meal that captivated me earlier this month). Then at least he can pick it up with his weekly shop.

Dads, eh?
