I'll take some pics for you.

Yeah. Not far off now.
But if we went out for a meal I could only have a main course. No way have a starter and all that stuff.
But like I just about eat a full sarnie at lunch time.
Cooooooooooool.
No more mini milks!
Or at least not just one at a time.
Back from gym and guess what I just had!!!!
I did have an ice cream the other day though.
Haha!
Well they are rather nice.
I thought you'd be eating a single pea for the rest of your life. Didn't realise the stomach stretched back.
It's not actually the stomach that stretches, that is a myth.
It's the opening from the stomach to the intestine that widens.
Obviously over time you have to eat more otherwise you die!
The point is, I can't "over" eat. And I always have the "bypass" part - ie where not the calories I eat are absorbed.
...so I said to my son Charlie as we prepared a home made pizza, "Here's the tomato topping for the base. Spoon a little on and spread around a bit but don't get too close to the edge. I'll be back in a moment."
When I returned a couple of minutes later the tomato topping was not only over the edge of the pizza base but on the work top, the hob, up the side of the kettle AND on the wall.
Chefs! Never work with MY children.
Robyn feels sicky. 
The neighbor lady just dropped off another package at my front door: a Guinness T-shirt and a huge plate of enchiladas and Mexican rice.
Are they, to coin a phrase, trying to get into your knickers?

Ah, right!
Is that the sound of all the ladies booking an appointment with their GP?

Are these people, well, you know, all right ?

No, I'm sure they're all happily married. They're just friendly.

I only ask because if I went next door and left a t shirt and some nachos on the step I would probably be, at best, questioned, and, at worst, sectioned under the Mental Health Act !
Sounds like you need better neighbors.
