It's definitely very uncomfortable!

Morning all,

Very warm night! It’s weigh day today. I’m not stopping for group as I’m taking Mum to a NT place. We will have lunch there so I’ll opt for a JP provided they are serving hot food! Will report back later.

Hope you can get something sorted for your hand @joedenise its bad enough being restricted without the support being painful too x

Pleased to say I've got new soft brace and can move my thumb without having to take it off - I've just got to be careful not to pick things up using it though! Not allowed to do that for another 6 weeks!!!! I've been given some exercises but just moving the thumb side to side and moving my wrist up and down while supporting it as it's still very weak.

I'm going to be seeing a different hand therapist in future due to the location of today's one not being easy for parking - a good 10 minute walk across a very busy road. Took another 10 minutes to find the place once we got there - obviously wouldn't take that long if we went there again so future appointments will be on Saturdays near a big Tesco and Dobbies!

That's good about the new brace @joedenise and you'll be able to fit some shopping around the new location too. 👍

Hope you managed to get a JP today @Coxy11 . We went to a NT property yesterday and they were serving them. Yesterday's food was SW friendly and I made us sausage, chips and beans (with onions and mushrooms for Speed) in the evening. DH offered to go for a fish supper but I refused. 😇 I did have some celebratory wine syns though. 😁

We're out at our favourite Italian tonight and I'll have whatever I fancy on the menu and then back on plan tomorrow.

It's 34 degrees here and baking so 🤞 for air con in the restaurant. 🥵

Evening all 😁

Denise, glad you have a softer brace and new place to go

Bloody hot again today! All those poor people that lost their homes 😢😢

Awful nights sleep again, i am going to try and get an appointment again and see what's happening about this scan! Had a nanny nap this afternoon 🤣

Lunch i forgot pic!

I had 4 ryvita crackerbread , half fibre, boiled eggs, beetroot , tomato and melon, ltlmayo 0.5

Tea bbq chicken, jd seasoning, bbq sauce 0.5

Did you all just get an alert from the government on your phone? Frightened me to death 🤣🤣

Coxy11

Yes @bubbs me and DS2 did then DH got his about half an hour later! Very scary noise. Let’s hope people take notice as it’s horrible watching the news right now 😢

Sorry you had a rubbish night - definitely chase up the scan 👍

Glad you got a different support @joedenise hope it helps x

Enjoy the Italian mean @maman thats usually a good SW friendly choice now fresh pasta is free.

I weighed in with a 1.5lb loss today so that’s 6lb over 4 weeks. Happy with that. Will I get a shiny next week?? NT place had JPs so we both had one. I had two cups of tea - we both avoided the cakes! Dinner was Aldi chicken skewer, couscous and salad - 2 SWIPs total. Counting 3 for the mayo in the tuna mayo JP topping.
