Jerusalem - Israel Prime Minister Ariel Sharon was to return to a full schedule of work on Sunday after recovering from a mild stroke he suffered last week.

Sharon was to meet ministers at a weekly cabinet meeting later in the day, his office said.

He was rushed to the hospital a week ago after complaining that he felt bad. Doctors later said he suffered a mild stroke that had not caused any permanent damage.

Sharon's blood pressure and cholesterol levels are normal despite the fact he is overweight, the doctors told Israeli media.

Speculations about Sharon's precise weight have preoccupied Israelis with the media reporting that it is between 117 and 142kg.

The mass circulation daily Yediot Ahronot reported on Sunday that Sharon had lost one kilogram since the stroke.

Sharon's doctors are scheduled to hold a media conference on Monday to reveal all the details of his health, the Haaretz newspaper reported on Sunday.
