  • Sweet - thanks for the link earlier. I've tried all the companies but they refuse. I think its because he only had it done 1 week ago and most of the questions are linked to 6-12 weeks post op:rolleyes:. Appreciate the help though;)

    Mazzers - I know what you mean about the variation in price. The last company I spoke to today quoted £105..... huge difference from £600+:eek:.
    Like you, I'm a bit suss thinking it can't be right:confused:., although, I actually spoke to a Dr in the underwriting department........:confused:

    Badger - this is unlike you SO BL00DY ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!:D


    Sweet - I am taking an empty case with me for all the bargains (got a shoe fettish and they are so cheap out there:D) so going out will be fine but you maybe a bit squashed on the way back:rotfl:
    If you think nobody cares whether you're alive or dead, try missing a couple of mortgage payments.:whistle:

    My way is Atkins;)
  • Morning all!
    Menu for yesterday:-

    B 1/2 red grapefruit, stewed apple with nut/seed mix and cream
    L veg soup with creme fraiche
    mid-afternoon 7-8 brazil nuts. Got bored coz there was a power cut
    Apero 2 VERY small glasses of Rivesaltes, feta cubes and olives on sticks
    D Soya mince chilli with cauliflower chees
    1 small piece of low carb cheesecake

    Weather here has been cloudy and rainy for the last few days so I am trying to motivate myself to do indoor things on the basis that as soon as it is warm again I will be doing outside things.

    Hope everyone has a good day.

    Good Morning Mazzers and Sweet and everybody else :)

    4th day low carb - it gets easier each day :) on the 1st and 2nd day i was in such a bad mood probably my body rebelling because it didnt have any junk food for over 24hr :P anyway planning ahead helps so much i dont feel so hungry and need to eat whatever is in sight.

    Well Badger, when I say cloudy and rainy, we still had lunch outside yesterday in our sunny corner before the rain started .........
