Zombie's Journey into 2017: One day at a time

Happy New Year Phalanx and, indeed, all of Mumsnet!!

We've had the wedding. We've had Christmas. Or, as I refer to it: THE MOST AMAZING CHRISTMAS EVER.

Now it's onward one day at a time.

There will be planning of the wake so it's going to be THE MOST AMAZING PARTY THREAD EVER.

If you've not joined us yet, please do so now.

Zombie, do you think your stomach would let you get away with grazing? You know, like cows on a field, eating little bits of grass all day long rather than having meals?
It does not need to be grass in your case of course

Sorry to hear this Zombie. Have you thought about Sainsbury "Little Dishes". They are little portions of simple dishes like fish pie and chicken casserole. Some soups too. Designed for toddlers so quite easily digestible.

Z - I had never heard of Cook meals, so just had a browse - could you try the kids menu as being a smaller portion and so more manageable?

x posting - I nearly mentioned grazing - but I tend to think of lots of nuts and seeds

Maybe one of your new helpers could help you split the food you have in the freezer into manageable sizes.

Grazing sounds good too.

Just forget 3 meals a day.

The Dalai Lama (I think) says never eat more than 4 mouthfuls at a time, but do that at least 6 or 8 times a day.

I hate feeling full, it's feels nice to just eat when you're hungry, but only until you're not, not till you're stuffed.

When we lived in Merrie Olde England we had Graze boxes delivered every week. I loved them. I love grazing and if I were on my own, my entire menu for every meal would consist of picky bits.

OTOH we now live in the land of the takeaway and have just ordered gourmet pizzas and caesar salad and chicken wings to be delivered in half an hour.

It's so weird they don't do online grocery shopping here though.

I blame the car culture and the size of the car parks, actually.

Hearts and phalanx - good night, sleep tight, you especially Zombie.

Tube strike and Southern shenanigans next week! Early starts!

Do they deliver to you in the car park then Hearts?

Wouldn't it be easier to wait at home?

Really feel for you with that Roses

Don't you have a temperature coming on?

My father used Wiltshire Farm Foods. They deliver for free

Why did only half my message post? They do tiny portions, come frozen

BBB you joke but the closest thing they have to Ocado here really is something called "click and collect" where you online shop, but still have to drive to the grocery store to collect your order. There are special designated parking spaces for Click and Collect customers and I think the shop guys come out and load your groceries into your car for you.

TBH if i am going to go to the trouble of getting dressed, up and out in -15 degree weather, I am going to go round the supermarket myself!!!

What was that, poisoned? I didn't quite hear you.

Is your Android app tired and emotional poisoned?

Fingers crossed for a decent night for you Zombie.

Hearts I can't get Ocado either and I'm in England (just a common bit)

zombie grazing sounds like it could be the way forward for you.

I suppose I could get ocado but I'll stick to sainsbos thanks. (Well iceland this week!) Ocado is for posh peeps and posh I is not.

Oh and a bit of good news. Karma is brilliant. .
You know how ex is a dick head and left me skint because he wanted a new xbox? (That's pretty much what he did! Although he did give me some money I just didn't pay my catalogue and have bought the much needed clothes today, catalogue will be payed asap. I'm not late just yet)
Well anyway, his xbox account got hacked he can't access it. Which meant he had to beg me to come round here to get the details off my xbox (because that's the one he set the account up on originally) so Microsoft can fix it. He did a Web chat thingy with them. They confirmed his account has been compromised and it needs escalating. So he spent all his money on a new xbox and can't use it

Best Karma for that twat would be for his knob to drop off Fatty.

A human being behaving like that shouldn't be able to become a parent.
