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

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!

Trillian - your poor DP. My parents split up when I was 28 - very odd...not unsettling in the way it is for little ones...but when you have had your parents together for so long and are smugly wrapped in the security blanket of thinking you are the offspring of a marriage for life it does make you question a lot of things.

The other major weird thing is that (in our case anyway) we had a horrendous role reversal...with me having to spend hours counseling Mum on the phone - she really did become almost child like and terribly needy (even though it was she that initiated the split) . And it was deeply having to deal with her dating again as she often found it necessary to give me far too much gruesome detail. In the end I had to ask her to lay off telling me about her sexual exploits...for some reason hearing about your mothers sex life is just too much information . I feel for your poor DP for what lies ahead
