Joy dot: my pionus parrot making sweet noises and puffing up when I uncovered his cage

Do you lie in bed at all before getting up? We usually do, so if I had to take a thyroid pill, I'd take it when I first woke up, and then I wouldn't have to wait too long when I got up.

Also, what if you set a timer for when it's time to have breakfast?

: Hi Chloe,

: I fully agree with you - breakfast
: has always been important to me. I
: always used to tell people "I
: never leave home without it"
:
: But I never knew about the 'within
: the hour' thing, and since being
: on the program I have found that
: this aspect of it is quite tricky
: for me.

: The main catch is that I take a
: thyroid pill first thing in the
: morning. Then I have to wait half
: an hour before eating. In that
: half hour, I start doing things
: (usually computer things) and I
: get very involved in them and also
: get a kind of a "high"
: doing them. It can be school work
: I am preparing, or visiting this
: forum - usually both.
: It becomes hard to tear myself away
: from them, and I end up delaying
: breakfast in the process

: It has occurred to me to go for a
: walk, then come home with a
: healthy appetite for breakfast.
: Problem is, I need the morning
: time for lesson prep., as I'm too
: tired to do it in the evening. In
: the morning, I am razor sharp, and
: prepare my lessons with ease.

: I could wake up half an hour earlier,
: but need the sleep.

: I need to sort this out.

: Thanks for your encouragement
