One house down, 23492305834905 to go

The house was just a tad small. When we got there, we were giggly and excited like school girls - it was so nice. Really, really quiet area by the river, polished floorboards, big bedrooms.

But then i was driving home and it clicked - the people who lived there didnt have a dining table. There'd be no way we can fit our 2 seater and 3 seater couches plus our 6 person (smallish) dining table in the lounge/dining area.

Damnit! But, it's okay. were in no rush, so we're going to take our time.

I feel a bit like i'm going off track. Yesterday i didnt eat great - part of my mind was thinking 'hey! you're so under calories normally, you can afford to eat XYZ'. Plus, i didnt go to the gym. It's almost like when i see the boy, all of my plans disappear - hhaha. If i go to the gym before i get home (ie: before i see him) then im fine. But he met me at the house inspection - so i couldnt just leave him and go to the gym!

So i havent been since Monday, and cant go again tonight because i'm having dinner with a friend. Naughty naughty!

We're going out for Thai. I presume Thai food wouldnt be all that great for you - all that creamey coconut milk. But i couldnt really think of anywhere to go that is a healthier option? Aside from Japanese/sushi. Indian is the same - fatty curries. Italian is the same - yummy evil pasta. I'm too tempted at pubs to have chips.

Any suggestions guys!?

Hope you're well.

Happy house hunting!

I know how much FUN that can be! But I'm sure you will find the place that fits you perfectly soon. As for Thai there is a dish called chicken kapow or it might be listed as chicken and basil. It's not in any creamy sauce so there is no coconut milk and you can eat it with plain rice instead of those lovely rice noodles. It's spicy and can be ordered super spicy too! At Italian restaurants I tend to order the mixed grill or salmon. Most places I've been seem to have both of those on their menu. It's a bit healthier than the pasta but then again you can always have pasta just opt for the tomato based sauces rather than the creamy sauces. Fill up on salad first. Since I've been dieting though when we do go out I usually steer my friends/family towards a steak house and order a small cut with a baked potato.

Where did you end up going? Wherever it was I hope it was yummy. By the way I loooooooooooooove curries! Fattening or not! (Bad, I know!)

Love visiting houses

When we bought our house back in 1994 I was happy, yet sad not to have the excitement of visiting more homes.  Sometimes when it's a rainy day I might stop and visit an open house with the kids. 

Anyway, good luck choosing a restaurant with your friend.  My favorite is Szechwan, but that is obviously not the healthies choice!  LOL

Have a great time!
