Hi, I been off morphine for 9 days, only have oats for breaky at present... Still eat other meals but just lost my appetite for sure as used to eat twice as much .. My querie was more hyperthetical one as the oats fill you up .. I am just being very careful as was 103kgs on 8.6.15, and now 98.2kgs this morning and still…

Hi I'm glad you mentioned Scurvy as that's educational and helpful, I googled it and was very surprised I never heard of this ever before ... I want to say a big thanks :)

Awesome :)

Awesome lol

Yeah a little fat would not hurt but I'm trying to avoid anything processed like sausages or salami etc.. I'm just out of Hospitial for ACL/meniscus operation and really hungry either, when usually I'm a huge eater eating a lot of take away due to travel and doing disability shift work.. I posted the thread as have been…

Thanks for your replies Alyssa :) Time restraints when I go back to work as a disability support worker is one reason I'm asking as I work with profoundly Autistic clients who are food focused and like a 2 yr old in adult body, so to prepare a meal here is quite dangerous as client could burn themselves or tip food all…

Lol, no I don't work for Uncle Toby's .. Funny... I'm a disability support worker actually and posted as I just had an ACL/meniscus operation and have been lying on my back 24/7 for past 10 days with leg in full splint... I been having the Uncle Toby's oats sachets for breaky every day lunch hubby makes me a lamb curry…

Yeah yogurt is a little hard to have every night but I have Acid Reflux issues too and some bathroom issues from painkillers so needed the yoghurt for digestion reasons... I do have sweet potato with the curry lamb in recipe hubby makes.. I have thought of having cut up carrot sticks and raw beans or steamed ones for a…

Thanks for your reply as I do add low fat milk or honey or half banana, it fills me up too that's why I queried people's thoughts.. I was googling and also found it's what a lot of Jenny Craig users eat (not that I'm a Jenny Craig fan due to high costs involved ) But thought that was interesting and saw people on JC…

Yeah that happens I also saw dieticians at physio prior to operation I got given a food pyramid chart and just told to eat of each group .. Could not stick to it as do disability support work and not home much.. I was buying lots of takeaway even up to operation from working shift work long 8hrs stints and not having…

Just the satchets on their own, I'm curious what people thought as they seem to fill me up and would be low in fat..

s Thanks for your helpful advise I will try hard to do all your suggestions as they seem very logical.. It's good to know kind people out there can help you.. I'm suffering a lot in past 8 days since surgery so it's good to know there is hope.. Thanks for taking time to post Kind Regards Nat :)

Thanks so much for your helpful tips and keeping me on track, it's been really hard as I'm in a full leg splint from ACL/meniscus operation and am so isolated my knee still has stitches in it and is swollen, we ice daily.. I can only do very limited movement with the knee as swelling is bad still.. I do small physio so I…

I'm sorry to hear what you going through and glad you responded and shared your history as it's a comfort to know that others can relate when you are so inactive and gained weight from previous injuries... I would like to stay in touch if that's ok, we may be able to motivate each other? And all the best with your goals I…

Thanks for your feedback and support as it's helpful :)

Thanks so much for sharing I have a hard road ahead... It's great to hear your journey and getting results :) I hope I have the strength to do it ...and your right I do make excuses too... I look forward to trying to change ..

Thanks for your kind advise, my daughter has just gone vegetarian too and is looking great... I love meat, but would give it up if I have to... Maybe I should give a try.. I wonder if that works being so sedentary, and could you over eat still?

Hi I have a 20 year hospitality background working in bars/bottle shops, and along the way read some facts about this. Barcardi is listed as the lowest in calories for spirits, beer is a lot lower in calories than spirits, and red wine has half the calories of white wine. Hope this helps.... A good one to try is Barcardi…
