Health kick and the battle against a courgette

When I first moved to London I was training for a half marathon, I was running about 3 times a week (on a good week) and feeling pretty healthy, but I injured my knee about a month before I was supposed to run so I had to pull out...since then I've fully embraced the take away...Chinese, Thai, Pizza, Mc Donald's, KFC...you name it ive been eating it...after much happy munching I realised I should probably cut the crap and loose the pounds so I've embarked on a health kick!
Ive been counting the calories and even hired a personal trainer. Yesterday was my first session with her. "Ah this will be easy" I thought "I'm not in that bad shape" well I was wrong. Today I woke up and muscles hurt that I didn't even know existed!...after hobbling around the bedroom for most of the morning I decided to do something productive that required minimal moving, and so I decided to try out a recipe I found for courgette muffins...
So off I hobbled to the kitchen to embark on my healthy bake...I grated courgette, I measured the skimmed milk, mixed everything together and the little things came out looking pretty good.
But I was wrong, the only good thing about these little beauty's is the way they look...as soon as I took a bite and exposed its slightly gooey tinted green insides I realised that healthy baking is definitely not for me and threw them straight in the bin!

    So maybe stick to the calorie counting, and training, that way if you really NEED cake you can have it ( a small crumb or two anyway). Good luck with the health kick, I think I could be a getting a boot up the bottom to do the same thing very soon!

    Oh and cougettes belong in ratatouille(eek can't spell it)or curry!
