OK, what I'm about to say may well be TMI. But rather to my horror yesterday, I woke up feeling extremely sick. In the way you do, I thought it might go away if I had something to drink.
Wrong. It could be a while before I drink black coffee again...
I couldn't quite believe my ill-fortune (pun intended) as I went down with a tummy bug on Day 6 of my second restart this year (there have been three ) - and this was Day 6 again (of the third restart, obviously). But I made up my mind that when I started to feel better late yesterday evening (it having been a full 24 hours since I'd last had anything), I wouldn't eat anything carby, however much I might want to. I figured out that a Cambridge muffin would work just as well as toast, and when that stayed down, I nibbled at some plain chicken.
So this is just to say - however weird it might be to comment on it - that just because you're ill, you don't have to succumb to the carb monsters. Of course, if it's something that's gonna last more than 24 hours, that's different.
But bizarre though it might seem, I'm really quite proud of myself today...
