I have a silly question - what or how is "pm"??

baloo · #3 08-01-2008, 16:10

PM = Personal message.

Look on the left hand side, under people names, you see a ittle blue "IM" button. Click that and you can send private messages to individuals.

Thanks Andy46. Still getting the hang of all this forum stuff. My sister is the computer geek (her term!!)

btw, look at the top where you see your User Information and you should see 1 new message waiting for you.

"I need to find a way to move this to the top of the board again and make it into a sticky, oh look this dot seems to do the trick!"

Hi, I have a question

I received my pack last night and it says that I can have up to 5 crispbreads a day. Am I right by thinking that 4 little ones that are all joined together to make the 1 big crispbread equals 2 on the plan?? Therefore you can have 2 and a half of those? Do people usually eat this with their meals? Or as snacks? Or either? Pleeeaassse Help. I'm going to start on the w/e, so would love to get an answer.

Thanks heaps

Peta

What brand are we talking about.

Salada "Man Size" would be considered 2 crispbreads (normally 1 serving)

Vita Weet (my favorites), 1 crisbread = 1 Vita Weet.

asy · #13 18-04-2008, 13:23

"four little ones joined together" is usually Salada.

So yea, one of those is two serves. Or, two little squares is one serve.

Thanks heaps. I never buy crispbread, so this will be a whole new venture for me. I think I'll try the Vita Weet like Baloo at first and see how I go.

My list say 2 cracker = 15g so if you think about it one must be 7.5g then times 5 = 37.5g crackers per day
Does this help?

Annabelle Joy · #16 30-04-2008, 18:42

One Ryevita and one rice cake is each are worth two crispbreads, even though they don't weigh 15 gms. I checked that with my consultant. She said it's because of the nutritional value.

Hi I am new ..just started this weekend..I am going back to the question that Peta posted about the crispbreads, can they be eaten anytime or just with your meals?

Welcome to Cohen's, nannaone, and to the forum. Start a diary so we can all help you along.

Crispbreads can be eaten any time. However there are a couple of restrictions. No more than two at a time, about 15 gms and one Ryevita or rice cake equals two of the others despite the weight. At least 2 1/2 hours between eating them. Thus, if you have crispbreads with a meal, wait at least 2 1/2 hours before eating more. If you want some with the next meal as well, they must be mid way if you are eating every five hours.
