A thread for when Umm Yasmin wants to add marginally relevant comments about stuff

  • Popular Post

Well now I have one of those tickedy-boo things, lads! And to my surprise I've lost 40 kilos since my original Lapband in 2009. Half of that is since my gastric bypass surgery in Oct 18. Actually, maybe I'll reset the ticker just to show my bypass weight loss - it's more meaningful to me these days.

Oh I think I'm all tapped out. I've run the gamut of things I'm going to talk about, I'll just continue to participate in the ones I'm already in. LOL. No new threads.

Here is the trick especially when things come too big/family/value/bulk sized:

Open it over a trash/rubbish bin and pour it out indiscriminately, (stop before nothing's left of course but) and whatever is left in the bag is yours.

Good news is, I'm back on plan today.

I made prawns with a tablespoon of leftover aubergine pesto that was in my fridge. Steamed up some brocoli and Brussels sprouts then when the prawns were nearly done, put the veggies in as well and stirred it all around with the bit of pesto. It was actually pretty tasty. Soz no pics.
