Revolutionaries of The Shiney Path - The Gorillas In Our Midst Eat Healthily

[BitOfFun]

Welcome to our 22nd Healthy Eating thread under the auspicious eye of Shiney the Cult Leader. She is vegetarian (like a gorilla), but you don't have to be! Or hairy!

I may be getting distracted by my over-cryptic thread title (it is hard when all the obvious ones have been done- fwiw The Shining Path are a South American guerrilla group and I'm looking at watching Che on dvd later, what can I say...), but I have been appointed Tsar With Authority for Titles, and starting this on a Friday night may be ill-judged, BUT...

We are here with the aim of eating healthily, losing weight in varying amounts if that is what we wish, and most of all posting as often as we're able to support each other. We have a good laugh too. Allegedly. But we're no trouble, no siree...

New-comers very welcome, just introduce yourselves and pile in!

I am picturing Shiney laid on a chaise lounge, one hand over her forehead, groaning helplessly, everytime her mother comes round

Vinny

Bella, your boy sounds very bright and very determined.

PMSL at slimey's tough love text.

Oh I do love this thread.

There is actually a picture of DS2 on my profile - butter wouldn't melt eh!

Vinny - your ds looks adorable too

i was in the co-op with ds2 on Sunday and when we were nearly finished he casually walked towards the till and said to me 'come on babe'

Bella definitely a 'butter wouldn't melt' cute one you have there

ROARING at Vinny's little ladykiller!

And Bella, I just showed DP your ds' picture and he said in his best Monty Python voice that he looks like a naughty little boy

Just wait till he is 15 Vinny - what will your DS be saying then - to the girlies!

Sorry shine i didn't realise your mum was ill

Too naughty BofF

I feel a bit more positive now - thank you all for your wise words

oh he is a little charmer my ds2, his default name for me is 'nasty pasty'

and he is in love with ds1's girlfriend, totally smitten with her

She has recovered, I think, Vinny? But I guess a dose of flu would not be a good thing.

Night everyone.

I am going to bed starving virtuous

Night from me too. Sweet dreams

Night then you guys

Ah, I remember it well

I still have that joy on a regular basis, alas...

It's easier in that you don't worry about being a bit lax- or maybe that's me! But the babies can still be little bastards...

You do what you can- the oreos are probably ten minutes running though
