- enjoy the coffee xxBreakfast, 2 cherry tomatoes, small piece of cheese, cherry yogurt (cant eat much after nightshift)
Dinner, Chicken leg, 2 new potatoes, carrots, green beans, gravy.
Supper, 3 rye ryvita, sliced chicken, 6 cherry tomatoes, cucumber, green pepper. Apple, yogurt.
Edit to add a Welsh cake tonight in work, just like a little scone with raisins, very nice too.
Edit 2, I also had a basil and garlic dip with the ryvita and chicken tonight, that was lovely. I am buzzing of garlic now though - poor work colleagues.

I dont think I am in ketosis now, I have been having ryvita regularly, I had potatoes today and the Welsh cake tonight.......but I think my stomach is just glad to get back to sensible eating after the indulgency (is that a word?) when I gave up the fags.......lol.
Its great not to feel bloated.

Great news on the non gaviscon, just shows that our bodies dont like the stuff we put into it, and its just the way of telling us - no more.
Thanks Jan, it does feel good to be back in control again like I was up until last November. I am now just 1lb heavier than when I started my refeed in April 2009, so I am pleased about that too.

How did you sleep today?
I was woken a few times by the guy who is painting the outside of our house, then I went back to bed at 2pm, and asked Phill to wake me at 4:15 for a shower. I have to leave at 5:20 for work. He was a bit busy too, so I said, shall I set my alarm? I asked him this twice and he said, no, there is no need. Well I must have dozed off and when I looked at the clock it was 4:25. I felt rushed after that, even though I had everything ready for work, I wanted a shower, wash my hair etc, but no time for the hair washing, just a quick shower, cuppa tea then head to work.
Little things like that tend to stress me, its the OCD again, I wanted to be out of that bed at 4:15 LMAO.

Ooo no I know what you mean - we have our little routines and can feel all out of kilter if they don't go to plan. It's like the 'day' hasn't started right somehow! I have to have a good hour and a half between getting up and leaving the house (not at night - I don't leave at night till either 10.15 or 10.45 - I don't stay in bed till 8.45 or 9.15 lol) But I need 'coming to' time 'getting going' time and then 'getting ready' time. LOL. I remember when I used to jump out of bed at 8.05 and leave the house at 8.25 .... MANY years ago. The best I can do now (barring emergencies of course when I HAVE been known to be up, dressed, out and at my mother's 5 miles away in 20minutes) is when I'm minding Ted (youngest grandson) when I have to leave the house at 7.30am, then I get up about 6.30, get ready, have breakfast, go to their house and do most of my 'coming to' after DIL has gone to work - I always feel a bit 'dazed' though for a while LOL!
I hate it if I've asked John to wake me at a specific time coz I've got things to do and he thinks he's doing me a favour by leaving me a bit longer.
I'm sorry you got woken by the painter, that can be really irritating - especially as you were particularly tired last night! I slept quite well really. I didn't get to bed till about 10.30 and had to get up twice for the loo but apart from that ... then John brought me a coffee about 6.15 I think it was.
Sorry ... I've gone on a bit LOL! xx

I remember those days too well too, out of bed at 7am, quick wash, brush my teeth, and in the car by 7:20 grabbing a can of coke from the fridge and drinking it on the way to work. Not even a cuppa.
I couldnt do that now.
On my dayshift, I get up at 4:30 and leave at 05:30, thats enough time to shower, wash and blow dry my hair, and have 2 cups of tea. I always have everything else done the night before, work grub, pills etc........lol.
Jeez, that makes me sound ancient huh!

Having a good giggle at you two old farts ..hahaha....haha.....oh, I am going to get a wallop on Wed eh!!
I am saying it because I am the same! I need at least an hour in the morning...I get up at 6:30 and need the shower, hair washing, drying, straightening and my brekkie.....before I feel like I am normal! I dont have my coffee till I get into work and that is when I feel I "come into my own" then!! :8855::8855:
Years ago, I used to get up, and be out the door in at least 20 mins!! No way could I even contemplate that..in fact, if I didnt have an hour, I would then take 2 hours!!! I too need to ensure the OH lunch is prepared, and obviously mine now (never used to do mine), and clothes organised, etc!!!!
Oh, I also feed wee Marcie, our cat as well in the morning and sometimes even go to the allotment!
I tell you, us women are walking power houses!!!!!!!
Ah, sorry to hear you got woken up though Mary...hope you are able to stay awake tonight. I just take my hat off to you, Jan and Tanya for being able to work at night..I JUST couldnt do it at all!! Hope I never have to......
