Shrimp's journey!...and this time it's going to be a success

[Shrimp]

Cats at funny when they proudly bring mice home for tea. Our cat does the same

 

[lynneonextante]

It's awful the way they torment them though. Last summer the cat had a mouse trapped in one of my son's converse boots!

 

[GemlaD]

Oh it is Lynne. But sometimes it a little to quiet and I get scared as my OH does not know the trails so well. Therefore he would not be able to find me.

just had some excitement doing my horses...caught a rat. They have been around since the winter and we ave tried everything to get rid of them. Another one gone! And we caught it by hand rather than a trap

How do you catch a rat by hand? One managed to get into my kitchen in the week and I freaked right out. Rat man is coming to put down bait tomorrow so hopefully the next visit will be its last !

 

[notsoskinnymarge]

Aha !!
Found your diary Shrimp

 

[Shrimp]

I have had a well and truly bad day. I have eaten everything in sight. I have to say I am not proud!

all I had left from exchange since Friday was soup and I just could not cope with another one. I did by ultra slim bars but they did not fill me up, so I am off the wagon!

my next delivery arrives tomorrow so I will be back on the straight and narrow.

i just hope the damage is not to bad!

GemLaD - it took two of us with a scoop to catch the rat in a bucket....and them put a make shift lid on top.

 

[notsoskinnymarge]

Like you said shrimp, a new day now, a new challenge
I hope your delivery arrives early

 

[Shrimp]

[Shrimp]

Box arrived...vanilla shake in coffee for lunch

 

[Plymscuba]

Keep up the good work Shrimp. You never know, it may even spur the weightloss on x

 

[Shrimp]

Fingers crossed x

 

[notsoskinnymarge]

Vanilla coffee :drool:

 

[Shrimp]

I love it Marge....my fav!

just done 2.8 mile run...but did feel a little wobbly!

planning on running 4 miles with a friend tomorrow, which will feel strange as I like to run on my own. Which makes me feel very antisocial

 

[Shrimp]

I all the joys of dieting...no period for 70 days then TOLM is now about to enter week number 3

this is to blooming much...go away! And leave me alone

 

[notsoskinnymarge]

Oh no Shrimp
I'm TOTM too
I want to eat the world !!
I may need to have a tin of tuna or another soup !!

 

[Shrimp]

I have had to have a couple of ryvita! But so can't believe week number 3. This has never happened before

 

[notsoskinnymarge]

Mine have been regular throughout, which I am a little grateful for
But they do drive you mad with the cravings.
TOTM and VLCD dont mix at all !!
I think I'm just going to eat my self into a no carb coma, to stay on track. I have just had a tin of tuna, and do feel better, but may have to have a wee bit of salmon, or something. Maybe a salad :hmm: I am resisting hardcore carbs like you wouldn't believe !!
I wish I hadnt had that snooze earlier, as I dont feel like going to bed now either

I hope you get away a relatively unscathed Shrimp

 

[Shrimp]

While I was away 2 weeks ago ...my friend told me that you should nap for just 26 minutes (not one more or one less). So your alarm should be set for 26 minutes as you settle down. A number of us have put it to the test and it seems to work. Give it a go next time you need 40 winks and let me know what you think

 

[notsoskinnymarge]

Really ?
I will try that
Someone told me the best way to have nap wasto have a coffee, then nap for about 20 mins.
The 20mins was enough sleep, and by then the caffeine in the coffee kicks in, so you feel very refreshed on waking

I slept for about 2hrs

 

[Shrimp]

Breakfast..sshake.
lunch..scrambled egg and piece of toast
(as going for a 4.5 mile run tonight and need a few carbs)

already mucked out the horses and ridden for an hour...enjoying being on holiday at home
