Share a cuppa?

I've just made myself a cuppa and would love a friend if anyone is around?

Re: Share a cuppa?

I do get the skim milk one @tyme . It tastes the same and has less sugar! Still a lot though. I haven’t met anyone yet that has a sweeter tooth than me. My cousins on my dads side are the same with condensed milk! And there is 19 of us

@tyme

Yeah, I should probably Not follow through on the condensed milk purchase, as I also consume too much sugar as it is! I'm way better than I used to be, but I can't kick it entirely 🙂

My sugar intake is really bad @StuF @tyme . I probably should look at that

Re: Share a cuppa?

To be honest @StuF @Captain24 , I'm actually very intrigued by this conversation tonight. And yes, I DO have an immensely sweet tooth, but not sure if it beats yours! I'm thinking age may change things too?

I CAN indulge on Nutella and chocolate though - big time! I don't eat lollies, but I DO love chocolate. Oh, and I have eaten Milo by the spoonful in the past. I don't mind it. I just don't like it getting stuck in my teeth.

Thanks for the heads up @StuF about not fulfilling the sweetened condensed milk purchase. I'm forever telling myself that I'm going to start exercise and eating healthy, with help from @Oaktree in their very inspiring thread Walking for Wellness .... I'm not very good at it though. But as you said @Oaktree , You just have to do it!

Hugs,

tyme

Yeah @Captain24 , my sugar intake is atrocious. My blood tests show it. So when my blood sugar/fat levels are not very good, I adjust my diet. Then when I go back for the next blood test and things seem okay... my mind reverts back to the old eating patterns. Not good, eh?

@tyme @Captain24

This Is a good conversation! But I'm gonna bail on you and get ready for bed.

I'll be sure to check back tomorrow...and I'll look at the Walking for Wellness thread too 🙂

G'night!

Good night @StuF ! Thanks for the chat!

Re: Share a cuppa?

Milo on icecream is awesome @tyme

I eat milo by the spoonful same as

nutella it’s by the spoonful. It’s nothing for me to eat a jar it. And I love my

lollies!! If I have a cup of tea it has 4 sugars!

Maybe I need to join the walking thread. Just realising how bad my sugar intake actually is. I do have trouble just joining in stuff though. That bloody social anxiety!!

@Captain24 , I tell you what can get your heart rate going in terms of fitness activities? Kids' dancing, yoga and exercise activities! I put them on for my littlies, and when I join in, I'm huffing and puffing. So I guess it's a start?

Oh, and of course you can follow the adult exercise sessions too. I wonder if @Oaktree or anyone else has good youtube exercise links (esp for people who find it hard to get out).

I completed 10 weeks of exercise classes via zoom last year. It was great. The facilitators were exercise physiologists, and we had different exercises each week for an hour. I found it great because I did it at home and kept my camera off.
