I'm really liking cc at the moment. It's quite liberating!

 

[becki2009]

Do you count on my fitness pal?

 

[pippalata]

Yep

 

[becki2009]

How do you find adding things like your homemade sauces? Adding all measured ingredients. I don't measure

 

[pippalata]

I don't really use anything that needs measuring...

 

[becki2009]

Oooh. I don't know what to have for breakfast. Not prepped anything.

I'm thinking toast as my hexb and syn my cereal bar.

Or two boiled eggs before I leave at 6.30 then my other two at 9 to keep me going. Or is that too many eggs lol

Hi becki i do my sauce and smoothies on the recipes section on mfp so only measure things the first time to set it up then just divide the servings and use it as a guide. Ive got to say im enjoying cc too. Maybe we needed a change.

But I was trying to tell myself the positives and that il have a good day but I still couldn't sleep. Was I worried about not being able to wake up maybe. I'm not sure.

How come you was awake? I see it's sports day this morning. That will be fun!!

 

[bubble77]

I dont know every little noise wakes me up when hubs not here and once i wake up thats it for me!

I'm thinking about starting to take ryvita type things to work for my hexb. Does anybody know how many? I've tried to search but can't find anything up to date

 

[bubble77]

Hi Becki, is it another long day for you tomorrow?
In my 2013 book it was 4 Original/Rye/Sesame Ryvitas for a hexb not sure if thats still the case. Otherwise syn them they arent that high I love the multigrain and they are 2 syns but they have filling power.
Hope you have a better nights sleep. Im off to try again soon been a really long day since 3am!!!

 

[becki2009]

Also heard from a placement so really happy! Thankyou for keeping me so positive. You, Pip, sugar fairy and everyone else really do help. I love my mini friends!

Breakfast - wm toast hexb, nas peanut butter (4 syns)
Mid morning snack- 2 boiled eggs banana or watermelon
Lunch- turkey salad 0.5 syn mayo. Yoghurt. It's a ski one will check syn's
Snack- cheese curls (4.5).bubbly bite 2.5

Tea- chicken salad ( salad again!) 11.5 syn's already. Hopefully that will be it!

I missed your cheeky edit asking that! I often have ryvita with Dairylea triangles from my hex a. You can have 2 or 4 ryvita and 3 normal Dairylea.

Woo hoo for the news on the job! That's great! I'm really proud of you for keeping going. I've hated my job for the last 4 years but don't have the balls to do anything about it, so you should be really pleased.

Thankyou! When you say 2 or 4 ryvita which is it? Haha does it depend on the type? I could not be in a job I'm not happy with but then I've never been paid enough for the **** I have had to deal with. Luckily enough Rick earns enough if he had to support us both.

Thanks! Yes I have a meeting on the 10th so hopefully I'll be ready to go in September!

I've actually had two really nice days at work. Shock!! It's just so tiring and constant. But overall I'm feeling happy

And I've learnt to multi quote reply woohoo!
