Today I have a follow up appointment with Mr Mannur. I have NO idea what I'm following up on. I just got a letter telling me to be there.

I've tried calling the patient liaison person at the hospital to check the status of my funding/operation - but I can't seem to get her to call me back. I wonder what I'll be told today.. after all, it is now mid-February and I'd previously been told that I should be having my surgery right about now.

I can't say that I'm too thrilled about my appointment today - I guess because I doubt I'll be told anything exciting. Finger's x'd that isn't the case.

What does 200 calories look like?

Check this out - a big list of pictures of what 200 calories looks like. Makes you think, doesn't it? Would you rather have 10 gummi bears or about 3 bowls of puffed rice cereal? Me, I like to be full.. so I'd probably go for the cereal.

And WHO knew that balsamic vinegar has so many calories? Then again, I suppose you wouldn't normally even consider using/drinking 200mls of the stuff. Still - I'd rather have 333mls of whole milk!
