Re: A big Connundrum
I think jello is called jelly over here which is usually served with cream or some such as a dessert.
When I say I'm not a large eater, my weight then was just 7st 5lb (can't convert to kilos I'm afraid) but I'm only little, I ate every tiny thing virtually licking the plate because I was so hungry.
For example, at lunch-time there was A sandwich, with perhaps some sort of dessert, which I never eat anyway.
For tea, a small portion of bland mash and something else. The portions would have been better on a side plate and was lost on a dinner plate.
Thankfully, since then I've "piled" on the weight and am now 7st 9lb. It's a mercy I was only in there for three days otherwise I'd have ended up on a drip!
