Hi guys,
As some of you will know from reading my diary I have been very unwell recently. A
Couple of cases of tonsilitis an then appendicitis. So I've been in hopsital for five days and had surgery to had my appendix removed. I'm back home now but I'm still not 100%.
I had no food before my op for at least 48 hours - mainly because I'd been Ill and vomitting before I was admitted to hopsital and after coming round from my op I had to eat the lovely hopsital foods which did involve carbs.
Anyway, I'm staying with my dad for a few days (some of you will know he is also a dukaneer in consolidation) so he will be looking after me. I've been talking to him and we have decided I should not do any PP days for a while and should make sure
I eat plenty of goodness. For example last night I had a nice big bowl of liver with onions, brocoli, cauliflower and carrots to build me up. He has also suggested allowing myself some fruit for a few days and to be honest I would love an orange - all that vitamin C! I don't wanna lose weight while I'm recovering as I don't think that's fair on my body after all it's been through.
I'm having my first bit of oatbran again in ages, I've actually missed it! Lol. I'm eating it as I type. Yay!
So I'm just wondering whether anyone has had a similar experience - I don't mean appendicitis but I mean being ill and unable to stick to the diet because you need to recover. I really don't want to do attack and start all over again I've lost 2 and a half stone and I really cannot see there being any benefit to doing that again and putting my body through it again. Would you agree that once I'm better and back at work I should just go back to alternating PPs with PVs? Without doing attack?
I would be grateful for any help you have.
Thank you. X
