It keeps me going...

[Smartie831]

Hello lovely people in my phone. I Thought i would share something I've been doing week and its keeping me going. I wrote down all the points in the day when i am tempted. So for me it's 10am break time at work. Lunch. Break time in the afternoon. My daughters tea time and about 9pm.

I have set daily reminders in my phone diary for these times. Kinda my little angel on my shoulders persuading me to be good. The reminders range from..

"You dont need that extra coffee.. grab some water"

"Come on mrs, stay strong."

"Stop finishing off her tea... throw it in the bin. You dont need two teas"

So... it may seem a little crazy but its working.

Xxx

Whatever works for you has to be a good thing, Smartie

I just love the 'hello people in my 'phone', makes me think of the city in the locker on Men in Black.

If it works for you that's great, it's good to identify your 'problem' times.

This person in your 'phone is wishing you good luck

It is kind of like: "Alexa - remind me that I am not a human dustbin"! You should make an App and market it!!

My 9pm was a bit abusive and I shouted at my phone. So i best change that one. Ha

Hi Smartie831, it is great that you are setting yourself reminders for healthy swaps. I think I might trying that too. It makes such a difference cutting down your tea/coffee and drinking water - no calories!!!

Well done to you 👏. That's a really good technique, which I'm going to try. Thanks for sharing.
