what an interesting set of questions.

I should think focusing on one would help you with all the others. So whatever you choose will be useful all round

I'm thinking of how much difference timing makes to me, in making sure everything else runs smoothly! so I'll look at that one first.

I couldnt get the hang of timing at all at first. I was used to delaying and pushing the boundaries, seeing 'how long can I go' Getting my head round that was a bit of a challenge I think your recognising your needs goes a long way towards helping

I went by the clock at first because I think my signals were all in a muddle and I couldnt hear what was going on. So I said, 7 am, 1pm, 6.30 pm and then snacks at 10 am and 4 pm. It was a bit regimented in its way but it did help me feel steady.

one of my favourite snacks is hummous mashed up with hard boiled egg. I like new potato with cheese and tapenade. babybel and almonds is not really brown but works for me for portability
