I went back to the hospital this morning to see the dietician. I am a veggie and have been placed on a low fibre diet.

The steroids that I am on increase the appetite and I am constantly thinking about food. As soon as I wake up its "what can I have for my lunch..?" then at lunch its "what can I make for dinner..?" then I sit with the cookery books and drool.

I am now addicted to the cookery programs on TV, I am looking at recipies online. I can't get enough of food.

But, according to the BMI I am only 1 point into the overweight catagory...! This I can't understand. I can't do the zips up on my skirts and trousers, I can't do the button up on my jeans so I wear baggy tops to cover it.

The dietician says as soon as I come off the steroids I shouldn't be as bloated due to water retention so my clothes should start to feel looser.

I am still going to start the gym. I am also going to start riding again. Then as soon as I feel fit enough my other half wants me to play squash with him.

As long as I remember a saying from my Dad "Little pickers wear bigger knickers" I should be healthly slim by the time Christmas comes.

I'm starving...ohhh its lunch time. :o)
