hi ev1,
sorry everyone seems to be having a hard time of it but its good to see some refreshing attitudes emerging
.
well last night was different....
after worrying all day about how i was going to ever manage to 'go' , i sat for hours researching castor oil, epsom salts, etc etc and was all set for my doctors appointment tomorrow to ask for fleet ( very hardcore remedy).
by 5pm yesterday i was not only suffering from serious tummy cramps (possibly from the high dose of milk of magnesia the night before) but i was feeling REALLY really depressed and about ready to throw the towel in.
so i decided i was going to try one last thing.
i was going to eat the one thing i know is a real danger zone for me BUT would definately trigger my IBS in the opposite direction........... home made, deep fat fried chips with beans (and a piece of turkey for that protein goodness
).
and so thats what i had.
it was , i think a brave move because not only would it knock me out of ketosis BUT it meant caving into a food that is already one of my biggest weaknesses. could i be trusted to eat one smallish portion of chips and not want everyone elses?
hell yes i managed. i couldnt finish what i had.
i was left with crippling tummy ache and feeling very sick all night (2 positive signs of IBS in its process).
went to bed feeling lousy... woke feeling just as bad BUT after an hour i found myself paying a visit, then 30 minutes later making a return visit.
ive now spent most of the day visiting the toilet and although my stomach feels like its turning inside out right now at least im feeling like its worked (somewhat
)
ive had to stay indoors as a result but i had nowhere to go today anyway. lol.
this morning showed a 4lb gain
but i know that was water and with all the toilet trips so far it has already dropped by 3lbs
.
not exactly sure where i go from here but definately feeling better right now
