I am in a travelodge on a diet. I carefully measured my food for the day and have been really good. Now I'm bored, hungry and craving chocolate. Shall I go on a chocolate hunt?

Oooooh black coffee. You are bad Grin

I think usual's idea is a mighty fine one. You will save pounds and isn't that the aim of diets anyway?

StealthPolarBear · 03/01/2012 20:02

If I could have a wee freddo that would be good. Trouble is if I take myself off to the supermarket it'll be a pack of cookiies from the deli and I won't settle till they're gone.

I think it was Sparking.

NO. Resist.

Then you can be extra smug in the morning.

You resisted chocolate and survived the night in a travel lodge.

They are fab. But very pricey Obviously. Sad

TheCountessOlenska · 03/01/2012 20:05

I dunno - I would. How fat are you?

GoingForGoalWeight · 03/01/2012 20:05

No. Do. Not. Go. To. The. Shop/vending machine/room service etc

The longer you stay away from the fatty crap you'll crave it less.

And I'm cold. And running out of coffee. Should have brought that mini bottle of wine I knew it

So who'm I sending chocolate to?

RockStockAndTwoOpenBottles · 03/01/2012 20:07

Me. I am not on a diet.

MmeLindor. · 03/01/2012 20:07

Do I sense that you are perhaps biased?

How much do you have to lose, Stealth, and when did you start the diet?

Sparklingbrook · 03/01/2012 20:07

But what are you doing for breakfast? I am worried.

StealthPolarBear · 03/01/2012 20:08

Countess, I am fat. Ugh. Misery awaits.

ChaosTrulyReigns · 03/01/2012 20:09

I think I have some Lindt bunnies as well as reindeer.

Sorry Stealth, is this not helping?

StealthPolarBear · 03/01/2012 20:09

Meeeeeeee chaos.
Ok I have been dieting for a grand total of 36hrs.
What are you all laughing at? This is the second longest diet I've ever stuck to!

Forget chocolate and get booze

TheCountessOlenska · 03/01/2012 20:10

Oh maybe don't then - you will feel bad if you do.

I am not one to talk - have had one day off the booze and am now drinking gin due to Supremely Awful Day.

StealthPolarBear · 03/01/2012 20:11

Ok I am now opening the sparkling....water.
At least I can still mn, that's calorie free

MmeLindor. · 03/01/2012 20:13

What are you doing? Weightwatchers?

I started again this week (discounting yesterday) and have been very careful. Distracting myself with MN tonight.

StealthPolarBear · 03/01/2012 20:13

What happened countess?
Sorry to whoever is worrying abt my breakfast. Def won't be a little chef, wouldn't even if not dieting. Will be 2 belvita breakfast biscuits at 118 cals.

Can we ask why you're in a traveldodgy?

Sparklingbrook · 03/01/2012 20:13

Have a look at today's poo particles thread. That will put you off.

SayCoolNowSayWhip · 03/01/2012 20:13

I would say forget the chocolate and get wine. Although you might as well get some chocolate while you get the wine.

Pascha · 03/01/2012 20:14

Stealth you won't get Chao's stash to save you tonight. You are doomed, my dear. Pig away Smile

Chao my address is: Pascha, Very Piggy House, Chocolate Box Village, Oinkton, Kent.
