I'm being good! Honest!!!


Having another "looksee" on Monday, so I'm on the boring food again.

Himself won a raffle last night......... an Easter basket... full of CHOCOLATE!!!!!!!


It's in a corner of the dining room, where I can't see it.

:-(

I have plans for Tuesday :-D :-D

'The devil of a temptation'. Satan never takes a day off work! ;-)

Get thee behind me Satan. At least until Easter Day :-D :-D :-D

The Lindt Bunnies are calling me.......

;-)

I'm on Slimming World - no chocolate for me :-(

all the more enjoyable LS when eventually you can eat them.

Day 4... starvation day.

I've had 2 slices of toast with a scrape of apricot jam for breakfast.

For the rest of the day I can have water, clear juice or jelly.


Those Lindt bunnies are now howling..... I went into the dining room earlier, and I swear one of them winked at me.

Would it help if I howled?




:-(

2pm (about half an hour ago).... I mixed up the first packet of poo powder.

As advised by the staff at the clinic, mix some gatorade in it, to make it less disgusting.

:-| :-| Somebody has been at the jar of gatorade!!!!!!!!!

Himself is out and about (AGAIN)........ I had to leave a voice mail for him to go to the supermarket on his way home.

If he forgets, I'll make him sit outside the loo door later tonight.


:-(

2.31........ time for the next packet


YUCKY YUCKY YUCKY

Good luck on Monday (tomorrow for you),


I have to go for a "consultation" with the specialist on April 4, to see what he will do ............. down, up, or both.

OH has to go for his regular poke up in mid-June ........... but his diet has never been as restricted as yours up until the day of taking the goop.

He just has to cut out red meat, red or orange coloured fruits, veggies, drinks, nuts and seeds.

Then the last day becomes clear broth, jelly (but not red or orange), tea, coffee, clear juices ............. no milk. Take the goop as directed.

This time, he has to report at the Cancer Clinic for 7:45 am, so has to start taking the goop the previous evening, with a last dose 4 hours before reporting ..... which means 3:45 am :-0


I then turn into a "responsible adult", and collect him at about 9:45 am .......... and we come home by taxi (I don't drive).

I survived..... even though I thought I was going to melt down the loo last night.

I noticed on one of the packets of powder.... "flavoured" :-S With WHAT? I think a sadistic so-n-so tried to find the worst tasting thing..... I hate to think the flavouring is an improvement!

We got to the clinic at 7.30 (our time, 6.30 Qld Time).......... I eventually got into the theatre at about 10.

I remember getting dressed afterwards, I remember eating a sandwich & drinking a coffee, I remember the doctor visiting me afterwards, but don't remember what he said, except that I should see my GP in about a week. I do remember he said two years until the next "probe".............. I don't remember leaving the hospital, or getting in the car! Maybe I was walking in a drug-induced sleep :-)

I went back to bed when I got home......... with a BIG coffee......... read a book for a while, had a nap.......... it's now nearly 4pm.... I'm going back to bed, I'm so tired.

<3

ps.........
the bunnies are still whole, no nibbling.....but I'm about to devour an Espresso TimTam

Espresso Tim Tam! Yum. :-)

They are similar to the UK's Penguins but I shall see if they have Espresso Penguins when next I shop.

Pleased it's all over for you for a couple of years. :-)

TimTams.... the great Aussie choccy bikkie :-D

But..... I'm not fond of them, I'd rather have a mint slice (made by the same company ~ Armott's).... not sure who owns Arnott's these days, I think it's Nabisco, a US company!

A few years ago TimTams were sent to Britain..not sure if they're still available.

Anyway.......... the TimTam original now has siblings, including espresso (being a coffee lover I had to try them).... I don't remember how many siblings, but there's a "pina colada"....... which sounds awful to me... pineapple & chocolate?

I got up late this morning (yesterday afternoon nannanap got me confuzzled, I couldn't get to sleep last night...... until well after 3am!).

Sorted out paperwork from the hospital.

Receipt.... in the name of Debbie XXXXXX

Who?

I think Debbie might have my receipt :-D

I 'phoned the hospital, explained..... they're sending me a new receipt; they didn't seem too bothered about Debbie's :-0
