It is nearly ten months since my reversal operation, and I've been keeping to a good healthy eating regime the whole time since ...
My rate of weight loss has slowed, but this weekend I clocked in four stone lighter than I was at the start of June ...
I am pleaed with this progress and can't quite belive that I'm still finding it relatively easy to stick with it

Another soup
I made this from just what I happened to have in, looking a bit worn out and sorry for themselves really - but it turned out to be a good sweet combo for a mildly spicy soup tha I'll probably do again:
This makes four massive portions
two onions
tablespoon ground coriander
2 teaspoons ground cardomom
ghee or veg oil
three or four parsnips
1/2 celeriac
two carrots
one sweet potato
1.5 litres chicken stock
Fry the onion in some ghee until starting to brown, add the spices and warm them through, but be careful not to over-heat
Add the stock and the other veg, which need to to be chopped.
Cook until tender, upto 1/2 an hour depending on toughness and age of the roots!
Puree - reheat if necessary
Check seasoning
serve with a little melt of ghee or butter and some broken walnut pieces sprinked on the top ...
