Oh dear...

So, I had my doctor appointment this week. What is it with Doctors that they can make you feel like a naughty school girl again (in the least nice way that is). He didn't even try to smile or make me feel better, but then again, how can you feel better when you haven't lost any weight in 8 months? '

I was telling him a rough outline of my daily diet while climbing up on the examination table ready for a further inflation of my band, and mentioned among other things, my daily hot chocolate, and that I would now have to drop my avocado on toast for breakfast. He murmured that he was more worried about the hot chocolate. I said "oh, no, it's low fat hot chocolate", to which he answered dryly "I'm not convinced."

Not happy Jan as now I have to ditch my favourite hot drink. I cannot drink coffee, and am only an occasional tea drinker. But to give up my Hot Chocolate! With boobs! What a shock. So I had to bring in tea bags today, and will have to now bring milk to work. Sigh...the things we do...

On a positive note, I can no longer finish that little container of pasta I usually bring to work for lunch...

Losing hot chocolate, with boobs? So many other things could have been off the menu as well.

...like full cream milk, any pasta sauce that is cream based, corn chips, hot chips and all that other yummy tasting stuff...

PS. Yes, I know what boobs are =D

The irony is that the hot chocolate is made with a dash of milk only, and it is low fat! I took it up again...

Also, I have halved the lunch meals I eat, only have the odd little bowl of corn chips, only ever use lite milk (not skim, the others won't drink it), and have switched to wedges instead of hot chips and fish bites on bowling nights...not doing too bad, I would say!
