    (I know you know this, but) Don't be too hard on yourself, even if it was a result of your own actions, use the uncomfortable feeling to find a way forward - it's only a mistake if you don't learn anything, but it looks like you have found some lessons, so all is good :)

    Realise that part of trying to be 90% vegetarian is that what feels and looks like a lot of calories isn't in fact a lot of calories. Turns out the "load of chickpeas" I've been eating dont even equate to 500kcal a meal. Explains why I feel and look so terrible.

    Back to drinking poor mans weight gainer - oats, bananas, peanut butter, milk and Nutella in a blender.

    add some whey powder in too cos its pretty heavy on carbs and fat.

    its incredibly tasty. i left the finished product in a blender to find a shaker and my 4 year old climbed on the counter and chugged the whole litre. he then showed me all the muscles he grew from drinking it.
