Thanks, all. No Al, they gave me drugs in my I.V. (remember, my stomach was off limits!)

I'm saving some money - haven't been in a restaurant in over a week now. I'm told to avoid them for at least two more weeks because of the "unknowns" (fat, grease, MSG, etc.) that they might be putting in them.

No fried foods for two weeks, and even then, I am to go back to them SLOWLY. My cholesterol will be about 100 by then.
