Bun envy

[Leeleepuss]

I bought my boss a Belgian bun on my way in because he's fed up (and slim) and I'm a model employee. Now I want one and my tummy won't stop rumbling. Green tea just not cutting it this morning 😭

Get yourself some cream coffee, cheese or a jar of peanut butter and a spoon!

For a minute there I thought the title was something to do with Slim_for_Good and Hugh Jarse

Honestly, as long as you don't make a habit of a daily bun, and you're fat-adapted, I don't really see the harm in a one-off. It would actually be an interesting experiment to see how your appetite reacts. But if you're only a few weeks in, the peanut butter suggestion (above) might be a better idea. Just don't choose a "low fat" one!

What are trying to say about me and Hugh?

I’ve just had onion soup from the work canteen as a supposedly low carb option but I am sure it had added sugar. What a waste. I could have had a Belgian bun....

[Subtle_badger in reply to TheAwfulToad]

Avoid the high protein ones too, not for health reasons but because they taste like dust.

In any case, Hugh Jarse is less a feature in my life now, I’m spending more time with Hugh J’Thie these days.

I can hear your mother's voice....

It’s fair to say that my weight loss from that whole ‘problem’ area has been uneven, even lumpy. Why???

[AnnieW55 in reply to Hidden]

Because it’s your body and it can!

I’ve seen posts on another site (BSD) where this has happened. It evens out in the end - so to speak ☺️. Apparently the fat cells fill with water when the fat has gone and then, when your body thinks the time is right it let’s go of that and you deflate a bit. Also to paraphrase someone (but I don’t know who) you then need fast legs to catch up with the fast bladder. 😂 you may well!

Ha. I am sure you’re right. There’s obviously a metabolic hormone & conscious brain disconnect going on - I need to get them together for a collaboration workshop...

[Leeleepuss in reply to AnnieW55]

Oh no! Now I wish I'd done more pelvic floor exercises!! 😳

[Leeleepuss in reply to TheAwfulToad]

😂 😂 😂 Sorry Slim 😉

[Leeleepuss in reply to TheAwfulToad]

I have my own Hugh Jarse issues, don't need to envy anyone else's!! 😂

[Hidden in reply to Leeleepuss]

So long as you don’t my Hugh taking over your bun thread...

[Leeleepuss in reply to Hidden]

Not at all. Bun danger has passed. He ate it 😊

I find a long drink of lukewarm water eases the tummy rumbles and if possible a brisk walk - not always possible at work though. In future though, put yourself first! Let your boss buy his own cream bun! Love Subtle_badger 's solution
