I know I shouldn't but I'd to be at the hospital for 9 and I slept so well, I slept in - first time I've done that in years and years.

Renee Lee Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Hey Kirsteen, how are your symptoms doing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirsteen Posted November 2, 2012 Author Share Posted November 2, 2012 Not too bad thank you Renee. My stomach is settling. It's still not 100% but getting there. I feel good about what I'm eating, I do feel very 'nourished' if that makes sense. I feel my whole relationship to food is 100% better. At the back of a cupboard today I came across a packet of shirataki noodles. I've never tried them but had seen them in the health shop a few months ago and so bought them. I don't know what incenses me more, the fact that a 'health' food shop sold them or the fact that I bought them. I mean these things have practically zero calories because our bodies can't use them and yet they're sold as food? I mean you wouldn't put fuel in your car if the pump warned you your car couldn't use it, yet somehow I thought that would be ideal fuel to put in my body??? i also think my sleep pattern is getting better which, for someone with M.E. is major and I even think I've got 'slightly' more energy. I've actually been out 3 times this week which I haven't managed for months and, so far, no major flu-like crash after going out. It's all definitely down to what I'm eating. I'm really pleased and really happy about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirsteen Posted November 4, 2012 Author Share Posted November 4, 2012 Day 55 - Arrrgh after saying how well I was doing, I only got about 2 hours sleep last night. That coupled with the swollen glands in my neck is a sure M.E. sign that I've been overdoing things. However, I didn't have the horrible fluey crash today and even mamaged to get to the farmer's market for my bones so that's a big plus. Black coffee Harboiled egg, cooked ham, tomatoes and mayo Bone broth and beef soup Beef stew with sweet potato and broccoli. Had violet stomach cramps all evening and had finally to take Buscopan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirsteen Posted November 9, 2012 Author Share Posted November 9, 2012 Day 60 Black coffee smoked mackerel and spinach Crockpot chiken soup as yesterday Brisket, brussel sprouts and sweet potato Almost feel sad that this my last post in this section. I've done 60 days and I feel it's time to, very tentatively, leave the nest and see how I manage on my own. I don't think my eating pattern will be very much different but I'll move this to the Post W30 section and if I ever revert to another W30, well I won't be a newbie then So, armed with everything I've learned, onwards and upwards Au revoir.
