Oh Thank the Lord!!!! Maree, you said exactly what I feel. I went to

the surgeon and dietician today...

Seriously, I am sure that all dieticians are very nice people, but

really! She overheard me say to Di that I had a drink last night. The

first one since surgery. I lashed out and put some vodka in my V8

juice!!! I thought it was better than wine. Well, you would have

though that I had drunk 3 bottles of wine and eaten half a wheel of

bloody cheese and crackers. She tells me that she is going to have

to " wean " me of the V8 juice for my own good!

If she could just live a day in my shoes... and she looks like she

needs a good feed to boot... nothing a steak and chips would fix, with

a nice glass of red!!!

Ps... why do slim people think that larger people have no brains????

It is really worrying me!

I have had to remind myself all afternoon that I choose the doctor, not

the dietician, she unfortunately comes with the shebang.
