I used to hide in the kitchen to eat when my husband had to fast.

Thanks. I ate my meal very quietly and he didn't even notice I'd had it.

I don't envy him what he is having done tomorrow. My doctor has been fussing at me for not having mine done yet. I just can't get past that awful stuff you have to drink. It makes me so sick.

@JudyEv It's so disgusting and tastes so salty. Here, it's a huge bottle filled with liquid you have to drink. You have a certain amount of time to drink it in. Yuck! I wish I was still in Tennessee because my old gastro doctor had pills but I didn't know about it until it was too late.

@simone10 Vince had three sachets of powder to mix with a glass of water. He had one at 5pm, one at 9pm and another at 8am next morning. He said they weren't bad but had a saccharine taste he didn't like.

I'm sorry it makes you sick. Vince hasn't complained about it although he doesn't like it much.

My husband likes to barbecue...and in the kitchen his favourite meals to prepare are eggs and toast or spaghetti. I enjoy cooking....just not necessarily the cleanup. All that work....and then in fifteen minutes....it's gone... Hoping to hear that the results of Vince's test were what you are hoping for. Stay well,

Thanks for the kind words. I find that with cooking too. You can spend all day preparing a special meal and in a very short space of time, it's gone and you have to start worrying about the next meal.

@Ronrybs It's a shame in a way as it ceases to be a real treat. Once, we only ever had mushrooms from the paddocks after the first rains. And watermelon only in summer in season. Now you can get both year round.
