Food - Glorious Food!!

I know you're going to become really bored of hearing me go on about how I've been ill and had an op etc. etc.  But I wanted to tell you something today.

I have actually felt my taste-buds get up and dance.

Now this is a special moment.  I'm slowly reintroducing things to my diet that I have had to omit for the past months - things that everyone takes for granted.  Example?  Well, coffee, cheese, (any dairy, really, including butter and yoghurts), anything at all that had a modicum of fat was not to be eaten.  And it wasn't because I didn't like them - you have to understand, the amount of pain I was in afterwards; it just wasn't worth trying even a mouthful.

However, just a couple of days ago, I managed to eat some cheese.  Not a world-shattering, headlines-inducing thing.  But it was marvellous!  I'm sure the amount of saliva that suddenly erupted was totally due to my taste-buds crying!  

So I'm now aware that I can eat other things.  Things I've ruthlessly cut from my diet, and because of which I've lost over a stone in weight.

Only thing is - now I've got to watch my diet because of all these things that I can now eat. 

Anyone else see the irony in this?
