Sorry for the delay but I find this website very difficult to work out where threads are. Anyway, I am a social worker, albeit in the UK and in child protection. However no I would not have left it there, I would have requested information from the doctor and their manager/safeguarding team to explain the 'authorisation'.…

Yes, i was surprised myself at them as to look at them, they're not drenched in fats or oils to the eye. My point was just about how you must count everything and not assume that just because they are fairly watery veg that there wont be a lot of calories in them.

I already explained, these are pre prepared pots of veg.

What leftovers?

I suppose they must have. The cabbage says it has butter in the ingredients but I couldnt really discern any. The roasted veg didnt appear very oily but did have oil in the ingredients. My point was really about the fact that its easy to assume that because they are non starchy veg (cabbage, courgette, peppers, onion) they…

Because my plan was to eat one of the veggie sides with a burger or some chicken. But then i realised they both need using up, so thought I would have them both with a burger but then realised I cant 'afford' a piece of protein with them. Never mind. Anyway Im halfway through it now.

What I hate is when the bun and the burger start slipping away from each other. Hate that.

I dont know if the OP is still reading but I wonder if she is pregnant. She says her clothes dont fit and is putting on weight, not just not losing weight.

Are these flavoured oils? You shouldnt eat essential oils proper

Yes I was a bit confused about that bit as I have been following the dilemma.

People are mad but the police and social services shouldnt be, why hasnt she been charged with assault?

Thanks! Another lb this morning, now 16lbs or 1 stone and 2 pounds!

I am at the end of my 7th week. I set my goal for 1lb a week and so far have lost 16lbs. I realise that much of this is water at the moment, it feels to me as if it is slowing down to the correct rate now. I know that next week when i see a pound lost and not 2, I will start to feel negative. I need to ignore that and…

Yes I have 2 left in the freezer, Im going to weigh them after cooking next time to find out what the cooked weight is, as I suppose if they shrink down a lot I could be only looking about 85 grams or so. A lot of liquid and fat came out during the cooking

I just gave that suggestion to the OP as well but I think you're right actually! added to that, if he has 330 calories left for the day, the whopper will only put him at maintenance? Just eat it then.

I dont know if you are in the UK but yes they have just started advertising all over the place for whoppers. Personally i have never really liked burger king, they just dont taste nice to me. Last night I had a supermarket 'quality' burger, in a sandwich thin, with 25g of cheese slice, some veggies in the thin. You could…

Me too, but this was in a restaurant.

Wow thanks everyone

There must be quite a lot of glitches because today the system has me as 92lbs down instead of what Ive actually lost. It also changed my units from stones into lbs. I changed it back this morning and thought no more of it Then this afternoon, I log in to find its changed it again. Crazy.

I am highly suspicious of nearly all recorded calories even on packets. I have had advice here on this forum to trust the packet amounts. However, I am now eating my tea which consists of some Iceland Luxury Aberdeen Angus Quarterpounders. On the packet they say that per grilled burger, they are 171. Bargain I thought. But…

I have the same problem as you, the smallest deviation would send me off track, self sabotaging the progress made already or progress that will be made in the future. Im struggling with a meal I ate last night, I not only didnt enjoy it but it put me over by 600 odd calories and its annoyed me now. So I should take my own…

Now this is odd, I went into my weight and found that today is a recording of 190lbs as my weight. I didnt put that in there and also I dont record my weight in lbs its in stones and lbs and that has disappeared and all my weight recordings are now in lbs??

When I was growing up, my mum cooked from scratch, we didnt have desserts,, didnt have fizzy drinks,, didnt have ultra processed foods and I have always been overweight. I just like eating a lot of food. Im a good cook, I prefer my home cooking to ready foods or meals so I got fatter and fatter eating home cooked wholesome…

Well so far Ive put it at around 1700 calories using generic 'takeaway' guides. Thats put me over my goal today and actually as I have a bit of a cold, I couldnt even really enjoy it properly. What a waste of calories. Bit annoyed.

Well just to update on this, the starter was a mistake as it was a massive naan, not a small version as I thought. I had 175g of the sag paneer and then 200g of the tarka dhal. The wrap weighed 400g

Cream and 2 teaspoons of sugar? Or even just milk and sugar. I have 4 sugars a day in my one coffee a day

Certainly Ive noticed it round small villages like near Dover or Canterbury, not in the towns but villages. I dont think you would hear it in North Kent

When we moved down here (east Kent), I went around initially wondering why so many people from norfolk or the west country had moved here. It took some research to show me that actually there is (and was) a Kentish accent which sounds a bit yokel, like the west country/norfolk type accents sound to others. It turns out…

Im from London but we now live on the south coast

Is this Dick van *kitten*? oh - how quaint its starred out the name of Mary Poppins side kick!
