eee look another food diary!

I'd like year 1 I think, that's the boys year now, I did a year 3 class last year, loved that!

I've asked them if I can go in the pre school room, so hoping that's where I'll be.

Just having some massive dilemmas about what to do after Uni, really don't know whether to pursue child psychotherapy or psychiatry. I really don't know if I'm med school material! I really need to try and get some meetings with both professionals and hear about their work x
 
Ok I've been rubbish at organising myself again, didn't have time to eat again until 3 and now I'm all headachy and dizzy. Grr!

Placement went ok, good setting in a really bad area, kids were canny was in the 2-3 room and they were helpful as I really have loads of questions to ask rather than going to train to be a nursery nurse as its my policy module. Need to go home and type it all up before I forget!

Food has been good though and maybe trying for a green day again I think as everyone wants burgers for tea. And after not eating loads of carbs sound great to me!

GREEN DAY - Wednesday

Lunch : ham (1/2hexB) and egg salad (lettuce, cucumber, tomato) with a wmeal roll (hexB). Satsuma x2, alpen light (1/2 hexB)

Ohhhhh maaaan! The rington man came, I got biscuits and are 4... Why am I doing this to myself!!!!! What a gimp.

Day was going so well, all I'd had was a piece of toast (ohhh that's why... I need to eat more frequently so I don't crave sugar)
 
They were 137 cals each and I had 4!! Not so great! Xx

Actually my cals are still only 1543 for the day which isn't too bad really xx

You're not alone!!!! Every time the Ringtons man used to call at my mums old house she would buy packets and packets of their ginger snaps!
Now I admit they are gorgeous but she isn't allowed to eat biscuits with sugar in - she is diabetic. I used to end up eating them - not good for the diet I agree!
No wonder she was having problems!!! But she felt she HAD to buy things off him.

I actually get quite mad about some of these door-to-door people. I told him to stop calling on her because of her diabetes . . . and he kept going. :mad:
I eventually wrote to the company and complained. Got no response but he finally did stop calling. :)
 
I have never heard of this Ringtons…! But I did eat 4 biscuits yesterday!
Sounds like cal wise you have done ok lovely xx

Ringtons are tea & coffee merchants based in the NE (Newcastle-u-t) but also sell fantastic biscuits, cakes, sweets.
They have a massive door-to-door sales network that is actually quite aggresive. And tries to make you feel guilty if you don't buy!
I basically had a row with the guy on my mum's doorstep when I told him "No thanks" and asked him not to call any longer.
He was extremely rude and very nasty!!!
 
ahhhh…. being a Southerner I was not aware!! I am not very keen on any door to door… normally polite to them, but sometimes its hard to be!
I am not surprised you asked him to leave your mum alone - not helpful!
 
They don't usually knock on your door, you usually call them if you want a regular delivery and they'll bring it every other week. No one has ever knock on me, I always have to dash and collar him if I want anything.

Strange though, as all the ones I've met are lovely.

Your mum might have been sneaky and kept calling them!

Amazing Brazil nut biscuits, and their tea is soooo nice! Xx
 
I think they sort of prey on older people Charl. probably why they don't knock on your door.
No way could mum call them - she can't use the phone unless the number is programmed in for her.
 
Eeee that's awful! No more ringtons for me! Back to good old Yorkshire tea!
 
Haha! It's only the 2nd time I've gotten them in the 3 years I've lived here, so it'll be ok! Usually my mum gives me their tea bags so I can go back to avoidance! Usually I'm in lectures thurs avo so I'm not here when they come but I didn't have one this afternoon hence me seeing him!

I've been super studious and academic lately bev! Right back on the education train me! X

Well done chica - I did read a bit back that you'd got heaps of assignments to get sorted out!
 
Had quite a few lectures on essay prep this week and some tutorials so I feel i am pretty much ready to start on 2 (of the 6!) which is fab! Hopefully get a good start on one this weekend, maybe even finish my first draft by Monday! Yay! X

I was dreadful on writing essays! I always used to leave them to the last minute.
I seem to do my best work when under pressure !!!! Still the same now.
I always managed to do the little things - like a 1-page review of something - in plenty of time.
But when it came to doing the essay assignments I was awful.
We were given them at the start of each term - for completion by the end of term. I would do a synopsis and work out what needed to go into it usually within the first 2 weeks of term. And then "mull it over" for a bout 6-8 weeks - well that's my theory and I'm sticking to it.
I would end up having to write about 6 blumin' essays in the last 2 weeks of term!
