Yeah, I've had a look. I think digestives are pretty close, although they look a little thicker.

So do you sandwich up the marshmallows and some chocolate, wrap it in foil and put it in the coals?

......... I can't believe I'm looking forward to something that in reality, I'll probably have one bite of!

Can't believe we are talking about junk food recipes on here... But it's in the spirt of sharing our great (fat) American culture with the Aussies :P

Just copied this recipe...

To make a perfect smore, first take a square-shaped graham cracker. Our family enjoys Honey Maid graham crackers, but even store brand will do. Then, you will need a square of chocolate on top of the graham cracker. We use Hershey's chocolate, but any chocolate will do. I especially like Hershey's Special Dark chocolate on my s'mores. Next, you roast a marshmallow over an open fire. To roast the perfect marshmallow, the sugar should caramelize without burning. I take a stick or metal skewer and hold the marshmallow on the stick about 2 inches above the fire, turning it frequently until it is a caramel brown color without burning. Although, some people do enjoy it when their marshmallow catches fire and creates a black crust on the outside of the marshmallow. Then, when the marshmallow is nice and hot, you are ready to press it between two graham crackers. You remove the marshmallow with the top graham cracker, using it to slide the marshmallow off the stick. Finally, press the marshmallow on top of the chocolate with the graham cracker you used to slide the marshmallow off the roasting stick. The heat from the marshmallow will melt the chocolate. When pressed together, it makes a 'sandwich' of sorts, with the layers being: Honey Maid graham cracker, Hershey's chocolate square, roasted marshmallow, then another graham cracker.

Maybe its for the best that she left. Maybe she will find a forum more suited to her and they can stroke her ego. Its akin to her saying Im prettier than you. You can win friends and influence people by calling others Fatties. And alsoadding if you have nothing to add move along. Its just plain rude. I had many people say Im not big enough for surgery and I told them all Im big enuff. They were trying to be nice I mean who knows what to say? I was 240 when in early Dec 12 I found out I was approved. During tbat time before surgery I ate up to 247, stupid I know! We are all on here to support each other regardless if we are 200 or 600 we have the same struggles. I was scared to death of dying to table and so many women and men here calmed myfears, Im forever grateful!

LOL.. Like being on a plastics forum and saying, I'm not as ugly as most everyone here and everyone tells me how pretty I am without cosmetic surgery.. Should I do it?

Been going through a rough time for a week. I am not due for surgery until July. Been following a pre-surgery diet from my dietician. Lost 15 lbs. since December. This week I have just been eating everything in sight. I want to stop!!! I get weighed on Wednesday and am pretty surrounded will have my first gain since I started this process. Mad at myself for my loss of control.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
