Some people say that UK sizes and Aus are different but I have not experienced this. I wear a 12/14 here and my sis has recently sent me some size 12 UK stuff and it fits great.
I find some stuff is cut a little more generously but it depends on the make.

Take care, and don't underestimate the effect of any surgery.

They tried to give me mint tea in hospital when i had mine done and it made me be sick.
I just could not stand the taste.

Love mint tea, but ginger is also good - I'm lazy and now buy it from T2 but in Singapore my cleaner shamed me into making my own by just steeping some fresh young ginger.

It's an acquired taste.

Just wanted to update, mine wasnt for having the lap band, it was laparoscopy and hysteroscopy.

Yes they swear by it. I have heard it is good for you.

Why is it that everything good for you tastes so bad

I thought revenge was a dish best served cold.

Certainly was in this case - frozen cack.

Thank god they weren't served hot chocolate fudge sauce

Sorry for hijacking NB - hope it's going ok.

Well, in Canada we had something called Moose Tracks ice cream. It was absolutely delish! Mini Reece peanut butter cups in butterscotch ripple ice cream. Maybe Ben & Jerry could call it Moose Droppings?
