I have a hideous confession friends and family can vouch for — as a 24 year old who has never put on much weight, until recently, I had allowed my diet to descend into something quite ugly.
As university passed and busy working weeks took over, any hands-on kitchen activities gave way to Pizza Express oven pepperonis and pre-made katsu curries. I would even (and it makes me gag gently to write this) eat those watery spaghetti carbonara supermarket ready meals for supper.
