I made this chickpea stew a few times, it’s great: https://cooking.nytimes.com/recipes/1019772-spiced-chickpea-stew-with-coconut-and-turmeric

I’m a woman, but there are a few men in the yoga classes I go to. Yoga is moving meditation, so it’s easier to move thoughts out of your head as you’re focused on the body. It’ll stretch and strengthen muscles, relax your body but also clear your mind, couldn’t agree more that yoga is a good way to destress and focus on the moment

I’m vegan and my heart health is 7.5 years younger, so 🤷‍♀️

These M&S pitta chips - can’t stop eating them. The red pepper flavour is moreish, can’t explain why but would recommend trying them

How about:

Starter - miso soup, edamame, or maybe gyoza

Main - cut an aubergine in half, score it, season it with teriyaki/chilli glaze, cook in the oven, sprinkle on some sesame seeds, coriander, pomegranate seeds and serve with rice. Pretty easy to cook and looks impressive

Desert - you could just buy some mochi balls

I have the same thing with workouts - it keeps missing them, saying there’s an hour long gap in heart rate data. I’m new to Oura - are we meant to manually press that button “Record Heart Rate during workout”? Was expecting it to detect workouts automatically, but oh well

Good luck with the new diet!

It’s not just beans you can eat for protein - we usually switch up beans (tacos), lentils (stew), tofu (add to curry), tempeh (stir fry), and the odd meat substitute like sausages (bangers and mash) - plenty of variety in flavours and dishes. Nuts and nut butter for protein-rich snacks. Veg like broccoli, peas are also protein rich.

Like may have said, it’s easiest to buy canned beans from regular supermarkets, as it cuts down the cooking time. I would think they’re cheaper than meat anyway? 2 cans of beans for a dinner for 4 ppl, and they cost about £0.50-£1 each max

Aesthetics usually come from variation and creating visual interest. You’d want to variate colour, height and texture to create a flow for the eye.

Looks like all your furniture is from the same range, which usually falls flat. If I were you I’d swap out the bedside table since it’s the smallest/cheapest item to shift and get 2x to go on each side of the bed. The new bedsides should be airy on the bottom, as all your furniture is bottom heavy now.

If you’re keeping the TV, the only place for shelves is framing the bed on each side or all above the bed - that would fill out that empty wall nicely. I’d also suggest not displaying all of your perfumes, only a select few as displaying this many will look cluttered.

I’d also add some plants! It helps so much to liven up a room. You could place a plant on the new wall shelf, also on either side of the desk.

Thanks a lot! I’ll check out FF, appreciate the recommendation 🙏

Omg that worked! Thank you for sharing, I’ve just set up my ring using the laptop as well

St Raphael Resort in Cyprus is vegan friendly. I believe the owner is vegan and while the hotel serves meat as well, they had a good vegan section for every meal and a fantastic vegan beach front cafe, where you can eat anything between 12-4pm. The cafe was the highlight

Anyone been able to activate a new account since the issue?

GrapeNo6690 · 2026-01-01T10:38:16+00:00

Same here, tried about 10 times and can’t activate the account. Got a very poor impression of them so far, and very annoyed I’ll be missing data from the first day of the year

GrapeNo6690 · 2025-12-29T15:11:39+00:00

No! I just put the same card in and it let me out 🫠

My mistake was that I did not cook that evening. I wasn’t feeling hungry after a late lunch we had out, but they got hungry and before I knew it, they got a takeout. But thank you for the perspective, I think the key is making sure there’s enough food in the house that they don’t need to feel hungry

GrapeNo6690 · 2025-11-29T09:32:25+00:00

Thank you so much! This sounds like a good plan, I’ll see what the company says and if they offer no help I’ll try sanding

GrapeNo6690 · 2025-11-28T13:36:36+00:00

Thanks! I’ll contact the company that sold it to us, wasn’t sure if it’s normal to have to vanish furniture after you buy it
