They kept him in overnight and ran loads of tests and Xrays and they think it may be pancreatitis but its not conclusive - so we're going back this morning (they let me bring him home last night) for an ultrasound scan. Didn't even get to go to bed on Thurs night and had to work all day yesterday and then spend 90mins in a traffic jam trying to get to the animal hospital so yesterday's food can only be described as dreadful! Take away pizza, crisps and biscuits:o Don't really care as the dog is the main priority at the moment.

OMG! I found us on page 3 (and not in the Sun) !!! Where are we all? Probably out scoffing:rotfl::rotfl:
After a rubbish few days with yesterday being marginally better I've finally had an ok-ish day - the only baddy so far is a HM mince pie given to me by my technician. Plenty of F&V (7 portions:eek:) and lots of fluids (not wine:)).
No exercise to report though - the dog is still poorly but seems to be improving slowly so no long dog walks and its pouring down so no running today (what a fab excuse).
Hope we're all ok?0 -

Morning all
WW hope your wee dog ok.
Well I have been up to my eyes these last few days with ebay.
Sunday was good bar the fact that I had a Christmas eveing get together for elderly friends. I ate a few bits and bobs but they tasted so fatty I didn't really enjoy them. I treated myself to pavlova as I had planned to but yesterday I felt horrendous. Very bloated feeling sick. I know these high fat foods are not good for me and this has been a blessing to me.
So menu today is
Breakfast Toast banana
Lunch ......Soup and sandwich prob tuna with salad
Dinner ..... Potatoes veg possibly a tiny bit of pork chop and spoonful gravy.
Not a mince pie in this house so if anyone calls I will have to send someone for supplies:):):) I know if there was a box I would want to scoff them.
Lots of housework planned so plenty of exercise.
take care all and lets do our best today.0 -
Was too ashamed of myself to post yesterday but that's just cheating myself, so
Mondays meals
B - F&F, sk milk
L - bacon panini
D - bacon panini
S - jam sandwich, nana in wrap, packet of crisps.
