Fat Woman Slim

Do I really eat too much? Answers on a deep-fried post card please!

Yesterday, I ate.... Hang on! This sounds like that memory game where you have to remember what everyone went to the shop and bought. The list just keeps getting longer (for the shopping game, not yesterday's meals).

1 bowl of sugar-free Swiss style museli (museli volume around size of fist)
semi-skimmed milk
Benecol
numerous cups of tea (milk, no sugar)
2 apples
8 Jaffa cakes
2 slices of baguette (flat, about the size of my palm), toasted with jam and marg
some knobbles of Cheddar cheese, size totalling 1 x 1 x 7 cm
3 light strawberry mousse tubs (about 95 cals each)
mashed potato (size of fist, maybe slightly larger)
carrots and French beans
chicken (maybe less than size of fist)
water

Thats it. I also spent an hour messing around with the kids in the swimming pool - no, not exactly exercise, but movement nonetheless.

This is a fairly typical day. Yes, I know the Jaffa cakes and mousse are bad, but am I REALLY eating too much? Do slim people actually eat less than this?
