I don't like........

Peanut butter and I don't like chunky kit kats but for some strange reason I am totally addicted to peanut butter chunky kit kats .

I'm craving them and I'm not pregnant . trying to limit myself as I've already had the strawberry muffin earlier and if I'm going to fit into this wedding dress I HAVE to stop eating so much :(

Somebody pass me a lettuce leaf ...

It's strange ( and probably a coincidence ) that since I've had Fibro I've developed cravings for sweet things whereas previously I preferred savoury foods .

What's your naughty treat ?

Oh noooooooo I don't think I could manage a hen night , I'd like to slink in to the registrars office with the other half and 2 witnesses and be done with it .. But family wanted a " do " .

If you nod off during the hen night party just tell them to prop you up in a corner on a nice comfy chair and collect you on the way out :)

I'm already building up a nice stash of kit kats for after the wedding ;)

in reply toroxyroo

it's a shame how this condition tries to stops us being able to have a social life isn't it ? Everything has to be so carefully planned out , it takes the fun out of it .

I hate being the centre of attention and having a fuss made Helen , when I first started to arrange this wedding I was going through a good spell and thought I'd be able to cope, but as it gets nearer and my health is getting worse again I'm starting to dread it ! At this rate I'm going to need tranquillizing to get through the day LOL !

Hugs

Hi Helen, your right everything does have to be planned. I think i might need tranquillizing for the hen party lol. I hope you get a good spell soon. Hugs & love to you hunni. Helen xx

No see i love peanut butter and i love chunky kit kats but i dont like the peanut butter ones lol.

Peanut Butter and banana sandwiches are my fave :)

But i know what you mean i absolutely have hated green vegetables but now i eat spinach and brocolli. I just wish i could lose my sweet tooth. :(

I quite like veg and some fruit but if there's a bit of chocolate lying around it worries me , I can't leave it lol .

I used to love nana sandwhiches but now I can't stand them ! I still like nanas but not with bread .

I'm getting too fussy in me old age !

xx

mmmmm, i also seem to crave sweet things and generally my taste buds have changed. Wonder if it is the meds I am on.

My favorite bar has to be a Star Bar ( sure thats peanut too) very retro lol.

mmmmm only if I could swallow at the moment, yoghurt and ice cream for me.

Night Hun Lou

Nighty night Lou , hope you feel better tomorrow . ( I like Star bars too ! )

My 'thing' is anything vinegary - which is allegedly not great for inflammatory conditions, and I have been told by several different alternative therapists to avoid it ... but I just can't ... roll-mop herrings, balsamic dressings MMmmmmm.... but of course a Magnum ice-cream always go down well too!

Ohh I didn't know that Suzy . I have vinegar quite a lot too . Something else to avoid :(

Try peanut butter and cold crispy lettuce sandwiches...divine I promise!!! and there is the healthy bit...teehee. But honestly it works well!

But... but .. I don't actually like peanut butter fibrodude.... lol . Obviously unless it's wrapped up in a kit kat ! Hmmm I'm not sure kit kat and lettuce sandwiches would work :)

Hi Helen, I'm the same with sweet things, I crave chocolate like its going out of fashion and I'm not pregnant either. When I was younger I always choose the savoury option with a bit of sweet but now I am completely the opposite. I like chunky kitkat athough I havn't tried the peanut butter one but I could kill for a bar of cadburys chocolate (it has to be a big one though!). Angela xx

I love Cadbury's too Angela , in fact I like most chocolate apart from white .

Having said that though I was bought a bar of Asda strawberry and white chocolate at the weekend and it was delicious ... and at 50p a bar a complete bargain too. I really didn't think I'd like it but you have to give these new things a go don't you ? lol

I think I'm just strange !

p.s my naughty treat is meringues with strawberries and fat free vanilla yoghurt!

in reply tofibrodude

As naughty treats go fibrodude that one is quite angelic lol . I love strawberries but they disagree with me so I can only eat a very small quantity or I suffer for it all day .

Can't eat lemon curd either but I am fond of a good old cheese sandwich !

My sister and myself don't like anything chocolate orange but love Jaffa cakes, also I don't like coffee but love coffee cake and cappucinno bars from Thorntons.

in reply tobarrowmansbabe

Strange isn't it ? I like the cappuccino bars too . I love chocolate but don't like chocolate flavoured things , chocolate sponge cake for instance !

Mine is just about anything sweet - but I'm not mad about chocolate itself. I'v had this all my life so can't blame it on the fibro. I find it gets worse after I take certain meds when I sometimes resort to bread and jam with sugar sprinkled on it. (hangs head in shame),

Awww don't hang your head ! it's the little treats that make life worth living , especially when dealing with a long term illness or disorder and a little of what you fancy does you good !

cheese and jam sandwiches, bacon and marmalade and sausage and marmalade rolls. aaaahhhhh love them!! x

Ha ha.. you like sweet and savoury together Mattjam ! I've never tried that , but I guess sausages and marmalade aren't much different to having turkey with cranberry sauce !
