Obesity Post Mortem

I watched the late night TV programme of a post mortem on an obese woman and I have to say that although I have heard and read much about it actually seeing the effect the additional fat had on the body of this woman who had died of heart failure in her early 60s (she neither drank or smoked)was truly shocking. I recommend it as a spur to weight loss and motivation. There is of course surgery but its very well done and you can whizz through the cutting and get to the analysis.

You can make your own muesli quite easily.

I don't agree about porridge keeping one feeling fuller for longer. That has never worked for me. Never.

I usually eat six times a day. Maybe I digest stuff faster than average. Maybe I feel full or, rather, no longer hungry, which is when I stop eating, sooner than average.

Anyway, I think the porridge thing is a myth. At least one of my daughters, possibly two but I can't remember (not Minibags; she doesn't eat porridge), agrees with me.

Dorset Cereals muesli has no sugar added.

I also find porridge doesn't keep me feeling full for long.

I agree, bags. I don't find porridge keeps me fuller for longer. Maybe it's because I can't eat much of it without feeling bloated.

I also eat small but often throughout the day, but intentionally. I'm diabetic and I find that small low carb meals keep my blood glucose levels under better control.
