Recovering Cookie Addict
Well you know how it is, you live off LT flapjacks for *months* and next thing you know your pharmacy can't get any fresh supplies and they all go out of date and suddenly you are left with NONE!
Ok, so maybe its just me, you know how addicted I am to those coconut flapjacks (yes, yes, Im weird, i know hehe). So had to place an emergency order yesterday for some Be Yu meal bars as am too used to chewing now to not have a meal bar at some point each day.
Well they arrived this morning and I ordered several of each flavour. They are so tiny I already felt deprived haha But.. but... they are actually very tasty.. maybe a little too tasty in fact and this is where it gets interesting. Pre LT I would just sit and scoff choc bars and biccies down, several at a time without thinking about it. These have a chewy consistancy and are very like a chocy bar but Im making myself nibble them because I *know* that's my entire meal. So now I'm thinking that maybe this is actually a good thing, maybe this will retrain my brain not to rush through the yummy sweet tasting things, and to nibble and take my time?
Hmm... I'm not convinced either lol I would have preferred to stick with the flapjacks, at least they aren't sweet and take a bit longer to nom through.
Anyway, just thought I'd share. I admit they *are* extremely tasty and I do feel like I am having a little treat, I will just have to be careful that i don't end up splurging on them.
Oh, and for the record, they do have more carbs than a flapjack and aren't as nutritionally complete unfortunately, but it's only short term, hopefully the flapjacks will arrive soon!!
