mar - do you use the same calorie counter book as yasmine?

No, I use 'The Calorie Counter - by Dr Wynnie Chan'.

I think Yasmine uses the calorie bible or something along those lines.

Are you skipping dinner Mary?

I'm liking your menu so far

 

[Yasmine]

Yeah I have the calorie bible 2009. You should get your hands on a calorie book summer

Are you skipping dinner Mary?

No, I have 2 menu's there Yasmine, the bottom one is what I have prepared for my work for tomorrow, I leave the house at 5am and I dont get home until 7pm so I take breakfast and a hearty lunch with me. I will have a small dinner tomorrow night.

 

[kered]

I like to list it while its all fresh in my mind and written down, then tomorrow all I have to add on is my teas/coffees and light dinner in the evening.

 

[Yasmine]

I find the calorie one really good Jan, what is the GI one like, is it helpful?

 

[JanD]

I think it's prob that same as the one you have with a couple of extra columns but obviously I can't be sure.

I'm not sure about the GI/GL thing now - I'm finding it a bit confusing TBH - and that's the "For Dummies" book so God help me! LOL! xx
