A few years ago when I first went to university, I vowed to lose weight by eating in such a way that was healthy, satiating, convenient and cheap. I began a journey that was half typical university student (convenience foods and odd combinations of instant foods) and half passionate foodie (finding random boutique groceries). Please enjoy my blog :)
It never occurred to me until now that I could eat a normal sized burger and not be hungry afterwards. That is until I realised that kangaroo burger patties are small anyway and only need a small bun (not those large hamburger style buns where you tend to find that there is way too much bread for the meat and you have to use far more sauce for everything to be not too dry). By making the bun smaller, I had enough calories to add a side of vegetables and stay within my 400 calorie range.
Mum always wonders why I stay so skinny. It's because I load up on veggies, but also have small amounts of tasty things like roast lamb and gravy. And I don't pick at the lamb all of the following morning until it's gone.
