    Don't ever appear on Hells Kitchen with that palate!! Broccoli and cheese is like heated sick (or how I imagine it would be of course).

    Pap, why are you seeing that doctor? Cant you see one of the nicer ones, even if you have to wait a day or 2 longer?

    Spud I would do but he is on holiday for 2 weeks :rolleyes: To be honest she is one of the only other ones I will see. All the remaining in the surgerys I will not see even if I was dying :rotfl: If she doesnt sign I will put up a fight though, I have been morbidly obese now since I was 8years old and not once have I been offered the chance to see a dietician or offered any help at all. This is one of the reasons I never go to the doctors as everything is about my weight :rolleyes:

    The only soup I eat is tomato so I will try that but I think mine will just be milkshakes and some tetras. Does anyone know if you can pour the tetras into another container though? Or maybe make up a milkshake and pour it into a container to take to work?

    I asked about making the shakes ahead, but was told not to. They should be drunk freshly made because of the vitamins, minerals etc :confused:

    You are supposed to drink the packet shakes within about 15 minutes so they wouldn't be too good for work.
    I used the Tetras for work, but when I run out drink half a 500ml bottle of water then put the pack in and shake like mad for a while, then a little while longer for luck.
    Its not as good as a whizzer but works enough for drinking.

    Oh and yes you could pour out the tetras, but again I wouldn't do it until you are ready to drink it.
