Love your new boots!
 
Nice boots, I once had a pair of White's Smoke Jumpers, work boots but they looked a little like those. I was happy to see they are still made, but a bit taken back by the current price.whites.jpg

Hope dinner went well, no problem with going a little over diet once in a while.
 
Thanks Amy , Rob and Em . The boots are pretty comfy . I walked about a km in them yesterday no problem . Rob they are very unusual looking . LaMa I was thinking yours are very nanny mc phee. They really are cute.

So I survived the meal. It was great catching up with everyone . I had a small salad to start and asked for my dressing on the side . I had a chicken stir fry with boiled rice . I quietly explained to the waitress I was doing A slimming program and could I have my rice on the side and lots of veg and to only use a small bit of sauce . There was no issue. Really I didn't need the rice as it was so filling but I took a couple of spoons. I skipped dessert. Lots of water and then a coffee. We went to the pub then and I had a Diet Coke.

there was a band playing so it was good fun all around .
 
Good for you, dealing with the dinner so well - good to read about the staff and kitchen taking your requests in their stride, too - sounds like a great place for a convivial meal. And then to a pub, with band! Love it!
 
You did really well, Petal at your dinner out. You took it in your stride & made smart choices which were accommodated, without fuss. Live music too? Excellent!
 
I was out most of yesterday. Had a good day . Stopped for a coffee and I asked the barista could I get a skinny latte . She showed me the milk she had and it was the lowest fat milk that I take so I was happy. Stopped for late lunch and I chose a salad and dressing on the side. It was about a tablespoon so I felt I could have it . It had salad leaves , tomato, shredded chicken , olives ( I don't like so pushed aside ) , croutons ( just ate 2) but I did eat the little garlic bread that came with it. Didn't have much last night to compensate but will be properly on plan today.

Watched hotel Mumbai last night. I felt the movie told the story very well. Sad story. Lots of heroes in that hotel that night.
 
Great work for a day away from home! How nice of your barista to actually show you what she'd be using so you could makean informed decision.
 
Thanks LaMa it was kind of her.

I am not feeling well today. I know I have been very tired recently and it hit me full on yesterday. I felt so tired my stomach felt nausea . I did yard work and a walk and lots more. I managed to sleep 8.5 hours so hope that helps but I do feel extremely lethargic today. As it happens I am off work today for an appointment with my daughter so will try to relax a little.

Food went well yesterday except for a load of peanuts . Had some steak for dinner as I thought it might give me a boost.
Going to go make a nice coffee now have breakfast and maybe watch a little tv .
 
Thanks everyone. I am lying on my bed with a foot mask on . Have done some pampering but I’m really have zero energy . Don’t like it . Hope it passes by soon . I want to do so much so hope I be better Tomorrow
 
:grouphug: Another good night´s sleep should help, too.
