11/09/06 THE WAIT IS NEARLY OVER

Tomorrow my CDC (Cambridge Diet Counsellor) visits me for the first time. I hope that this will mark the beginning of things... get the ball rolling for real... and hopefully I can begin on Wednesday.

I have tried to avoid the "Last Supper" dilemma; last takeaway; last pig out! Preperation is a must if I am to succeed! Today I wnt to M&S and selected some nice healthy lo-carb food so that my last supper will be healthy and suitable to coincide with my preparation. I have avoided Carbs over the last few days as much as possible; with the exception of one Simply Cod (coated in batter) which I'm sure must contain some carbs. Other than that my kitchen has been a no-carb zone; well my food anyway! It is still full of all of the lovely snacks and treats that my partner will enjoy munching away on.

This morning I called my doctors surgery to try and arrange an appointment with my GP before the diet begins. I thought a health check was a great idea... so I can really monitor my health! Sensible me... lol! hehehe! The silly cow (I mean receptionist) was forceful in expressing the view of the surgery on the subject of VLCD's.. That they are quite opposed to them. Thanks for the support!! (or lack of)

Anyway; she eventually booked me an appointment with the parctice nurse for later in the week. I don't think that I'll bother with it though... I think that i can manage without their "support".
