I danced my whole life, danced on a cruise ship for a year when I was 18. Then taught dance while I went to Manchester Uni. So anything dancey, like dance classes and dvds kind of seem too easy, I'm just not interested, maybe I became sick of dance. I kind of opt for a 'resistance training' type workout. Mixing cardio with weights.

If I don't arrange my mum to come so I can go to gym, or do a workout in the morning, it doesn't happen. I find the days I workout I feel so much happier and more alert. I never used to understand the concept of working out to have more energy. Until recently I have no energy at all. Now I notice the difference.

I will catch up with all your diaries later

I've just booked into the drs to see the nurse Monday morning 9.20. Using online booking. I've had period pains 3 weeks straight with no period and I can't deal with it anymore. Plus I am overdue a smear. So she can do that and I'll ask about the period pain thing at the same time.

Also I've woken up feeling sick again. I don't mean morning sickness.....it feels like I've eaten something bad sickness. I need to do that FODMAP thing. Any advice?

I've been in an awful mood all day. My husbands away in Leeds doing a 60mile ride and my mum and dad had my daughter for a lot of the day so I could relax but all I did was wants cry.

Anyway.....it's all clear now......my period!!!!!!! Finally after 3 weeks of pms and period pains and tiredness!! Is here!
I feel like I should lose 10lbs of bloat this week lol!

 

[Cavegirl21]

Do you take anything ? I use to take cod liver oil with evening primrose oil capsules. I found they did help with mood swings.They balance out your hormones.
As I've gone through the menopause I no longer have to take them but do know they helped. I stopped taking them for a couple of months when I moved years ago and the mood swings and everything came back.

Thanks @craftermary
I never have needed to, my cycles have always been on time and without pains or crazy hormones. Lucky me. It's just this month it was so late and troublesome. Maybe because I lost so much weight. I'll remember the tip though, sounds like I need some for when my toddler is having tantrums lol

 

[jules1981]

Glad its finally here hun. I take cod liver oil when i remember...but thats to help with my dry skin and hair, if it helps anything else then thats fab too xxxx
