Thanks, that's reassuring, I was thinking it could be something to do with my cycle but didn't know it affected it that much. I weigh everything in scales, we don't use cups here so I don't even know what they are.

I did do some research and apparently they are made from the konjac plant found in Asia.

Yes shirataki noodles, they are def a bit more rubbery than usual noodles, and I think rinsing and pre boiling is essential as is lots of seasoning. But apparently a version of them is stocked in most health stores, but may be under a different brand name. I'd recommend ppl try them and make their own judgements, at 4…

I am so glad someone posted about this sizing in stores causes me so much anxiety. I'm 5'9 and currently about 160lbs an I tend to wear a UK size 10/12 or a US 6/8 I am smaller up top I carry weight on my hips. But I am really struggling with sizing at the minute because my current clothes are a bit tight but the size up…
