Total Solution Smidge's 2016 Diary :)

Enjoy your jigsaw

Got the edges done and then I had a bath and went to bed!

Caught up with an old friend at Costa today but they didn't have any decent fruit tea in so I had a normal tea. I don't think that amount of milk will do too much damage. Not had anything else off plan today and definitely feeling as though any side effects of Friday have worn off

Had a text from a friend last night suggesting some of us go out for drinks. She has done exante before but is slim so didn't really need to. I said it probably sounded lame but I am on the diet and really want to do it for good this time so I don't think a night out drinking would be such a good idea. We settled on looking at spa days which was nice of her so I will be doing that tonight

Only 9 weeks to go!

Thank goodness for another Monday at work being over! No blips diet wise, even been to the gym despite really not feeling it! I have noticed that it is getting easier though so I must also be getting fitter which is a great sign. There is a huge set of steps up and down from the beach where we go on holiday and I would love to be able to get up them in one go this year!

Just eating an indian daal pot but I have to admit I am going off them funny how your taste buds change during this diet. I used to love them! Doesn't help you buy your order based on what you like and then it changes so I have 15 left to get through!

Anyway, it's bingo night again so fingers crossed for lots of luck this week!!

Good luck at bingo

What a good friend. A lot of people don't understand but that is a great compromise that means you can still meet up without food or drink being involved.!

Enjoy your day Smidge

No luck at the bingo - booooo

Had an okay day today. Woke up with a funny tummy, couldn't tell if I needed to go to the ladies or if I was coming on. Turns out it was both got a bit grumpy in the afternoon, why can't people at work just do what you ask of them without moaning moaning moaing!

Aaaanyway, went to the gym and hoped it would make me feel a bit better but still feeling grumpy. My OH is having chicken wraps for dinner which smell yummy and I'm very bored of being on a diet now!

Got to stick to it, got to stick to it!

Ah Smidge tomorrow's another day ride the storm & I know you'll stick with it

 

[smidge87]

You're right Bronte, think I'll pop the kettle on and have a nice fruit tea and snuggle up in bed...it's only 8pm haha!

Hi Smidge , I hope you don't mind if I sub to your diary. Your all doing so well on Exante, its very quiet on the SnS side. Would love to keep in touch. Well done on your losses so far, your doing amazing and its certainly inspiring me a lot. I hope you have a fantastic loss at your next weigh in and have a lovely week ahead .

[smidge87]

Thanks ladies! Thanks for the follow Kay, glad I can be of some help with my moaning

Had an okay day today again. We had an event a work so instead of scoffing cakes I had a Cambridge Bonus Bar again. Better than what I wanted but I won't mention because everyone will start drooling haha. Had my photo taken during the event though and let's say my reaction was that I still have quite a way to go

Not going to the gym tonight. I'm feeling quite drained being on Exante and time of the month. Think I will pop over to see my friend and talk spa days to take my mind off things

Hope everyone is having a good day!

 

[Darcy15]

Ooh, spa days - lovely!

 

[smidge87]

Good day so far today. I was a little bored at work but was alone in the office so could go out and talk to other people and play on my phone to pass the time Can't go to the gym as I'm at study group tonight and my OH has the car working late. I could use the rowing machine but I walked to and from work 3 times today and I will walk the dog shortly so I think I'll just call it quits this week especially as it is TOTM.

Managed to pin my friends down to a date for spa day so now I just have to decide where we will go Usually it takes ages to get a group together doesn't it but this time I'm amazed how simple it was lol!

All quiet on the diet front. Looking forward to yummy curry and rice for dinner. Considering buying some replacements for the dhal pots now I have gone off them but it's hard to decide whether to buy another large order or just pay for a couple of bits....

I hear you, I'm eating a curry right now! However the dhal pot which I loved a week ago I can't bring myself to open right now!

 

[sybersadie]

I'm concerned about my tastes changing on the diet too. I have tasted all the stuff I've bought and there isn't much I absolutely hate but so far the stuff I really like I still like so was planning to order them again. Reading about people's tastes changing is worrying me, what if I order stuff then go off it

 

[smidge87]

Maybe just get a good mix again?

I never do and that's why I'm coming unstuck now think I will mix it up on my next order!

 

[Darcy15]

Have a good day Smidge

There is so much variety on Exante now - hard to know what to pick!

I love the ready pots - so easy! The black bean is my favourite

Tastes do change though, I used to like the soups but don't think I could face one now
