Mumsnet #87 Send Nudes.

[Serene Serena]

Guys, I went to Greggs and had a prawn pasta salad.... am sure the salad dressing had more calories than the sausage roll :/ I don't know what I was thinking. Also got a yoghurt which tasted of sadness so I threw it away.

I've got some zero large Greek yoghurt in the fridge and that, too, tastes of sadness. I've tried adding berries and chopped fruit but even the kids (not fussy eaters) aren't keen. The chickens will enjoy it though, those feathery little ducks will eat anything.

I'm obsessed with my chickens for that same reason. Garden-roving, t-rex omnivores, they are.

Have you tried the TikTok 'cheesecake', where you put biscuits into greek yoghurt and leave it for a few hours in the fridge. The biscuits absorb the moisture from the yoghurt and go soft and the yoghurt sets solid like a cheesecake. It's a great way to eat an enormous amount of biscuits without realising.

Ooh those calorie counting bores over on Mumsnet will tear you a new one for suggesting that! I'm not sure I believe the sad sack who claims never to eat biscuits, sweets or cake (apart from a small slice of cake on her birthday) and calorie counts every single meal, all year round. Then there's another one panicking at going for a meal where the calorie count is 1000 per meal, and someone has advised her to order a starter and a side salad and gorge on a tub of cottage cheese before she goes. Surely to God the occasional dinner out is okay? Just cut down a bit before and after and do a bit of extra running/weights/swimming perhaps? I'm so glad my life isn't ruled by my dress size. Oh to any teeny tiny Mumsnetters lurking, I'm not a gigantic Fatty McFatterson either.

I have! with Biscoff and full large greek yoghurt. Very tasty. I drizzled melted chocolate on top for extra fun.

They say this but then they whinge on about Brandy Melvile not being size inclusive.

Oooh sounds delicious.

Reporting you to D101. As you well know it’s illegal to feed kitchen scraps to your own flock. I hope you get swatted.

Some more totally healthy advice on a weight loss thread

Get you close to what? Death?

I've lost 8 stone since last year and I've done nothing like any of that.

I think someone on the chicken section of Mumsnet threatened to report a poster to DEFRA for saying she fed her chickens on scraps and not organic chicken feed. I get mine a suet cake from Home Bargain as a treat once a week, they love that. I think if you are a chicken breeder, there are rules and regulations on what they can eat, but my feathery people are pets who lay eggs. They are also registered with the Animal and Plant Agency in Wales. Oh and they aren't a business, I don't sell the eggs, they are for family only. And bloody delicious too

My mum and I used to make a pudding we called Gaucho Killer: ginger biscuits dipped in sherry, sandwiched together with whipped double cream, slathered with more cream and then drizzled with dulce de leche... def no calories!

Ooh I remember having this years ago - although I'm sure we used orange juice rather than sherry. I'm not sure I've ever had sherry in my life.
We gave it the less original name of gingernut log.

That is such dangerous advice. Can you imagine if a new mum, trying to breastfeed, but still wanting to lose the baby weight, trying to follow that regime? They are unapologetically pro-ana and MNHQ don't give a tit.

Can mumsnet be reported to anybody for this

I found the poo troll on my Next Door app


Just a little helpful thing ,I always do floaters it takes a few flushes to get shut of them but if you use washing up liquid the cheap one squirt it on the buggers and then they go no problem,hope this helps lots of us.

The moderators don’t care when these pro ana posts are highlighted to them as being dangerous advice. I’m not sure what other outside agencies there are. Maybe a media outlet like the BBC?

If you create a new food out of fully prepared foods the calories no longer count because they're no longer that form. #Science

So fries - very bad, many calories.
But - Fries, chopped bacon or chorizo, spring onions, chillis, melted cheese and sour cream - no calories because it's a new creation on which the calories have never been tested.

You could add coconut cream, or something, mix with granola, choc cherry is my fave, leave for a while for the granola to soften, definitely not sad

Serena - can confirm chickens bleeping love lasagne.
