Bellinda: Hats off to you - there's way too much shake for me. Ugh. I am glad you can tolerate it!! I had too many when I was a teenager - now I am trying to get back to them - it's hard. It makes me sick.

Honestly, this kind I'm drinking isn't that bad. A serving is 35g and of that 30g is protein. It's sweet without being too rich. I have yet to mix it with straight water, though; I've been using 1% milk. And truthfully, the high protein Slimfast I've been drinking for breakfast tastes so gross compared to the protein shake. If you get a chance, I'd recommend you try this kind; it's the first I've used so I don't know how other protein powders compare in taste.

Its been a stressful couple of days... A blocked pipe caused a lot of flooding in the kitchen - we needed a plumber to sort it out - it is going to take weeks to get it dried out and it caused a lot of problems with the dishwasher...

We are living with my parents who are both in their 90s in a house which is over 100 years old and is pretty much set in a time warp of 1950... In my parents last major modernisation of the house in 1960 they took out the gas lights and servants bells...

As such there is no fitted kitchen (or for that matter central heating or double glazing)...

My parents are big believers in lots of carpet keeps things warm...

The kitchen flooded...

In an average house this would be irritating - but a quick mop up would have it dried back out...

Of course - we do not have floor tiles or vinyl flooring - we have 3 layers of carpet in our kitchen with all the cupboards, oven, kitchen white goods etc placed on top of it so that they cannot be lifted...

Then there is the fact that the water backed up from the sink to the dishwasher and so much came back that it broke the dishwasher... I have been trying to sort that out...

Anyway - there is no denying that I ate more than normal yesterday... It was healthy stuff but I ate too much of it...
