Food or drink?

[goose1964]

Unless I get a short notice operation I have to decide whether to eat all the lovely Christmas food, which will cause me pain and take painkillers which I can't drink with, or I can be careful about what I eat and enjoy a few drinks.

Can't do both as my tablets can kill if taken with alcohol.

Don't know what to do?

Poor you - which do you normally look forward to more, the food or the booze? For example I love a cocktail, but if I had to choose I'd want to be able to eat whatever I wanted and stick to mulled apple juice, sparkling elderflower, San Pellegrino and tea

I love a drink but on Christmas Day the food wins hands down!

Imagine a Christmas without turkey stuffing sandwiches 😮

Food, no question!

Yeah, if I had to choose it would definitely be food!

Food for sure (but I don't drink alcohol, don't listen to me )

Is it any food in particular? I can't eat high fat without my dearly departed gallbladder twinging (I thought once it was gone I'd be ok but no I have a legacy of fat gripes)

Sort through what you can/cannot each then work out your menu. Yes its nice to say "Throw caution to the wind" but not if that slice of cake+wendsleydale leaves me reaching for the Mebeverine !

70isa it is gall bladder so any amount of fat and for some strange reason sultanas but not raisins.

Sultanas are oiled during the drying process while raisins aren't, so that makes sense.

Food always wins for me.
