Ok, bit of Philosopy for you
Have any of you ever sat and thought about what would happen, in the grand scheme of things, if you just disappeared? Failed to exist? Ever wondered what life would be like if you took the other route? Did one single thing differently?
Lets say for example, Thatcher was never brought into power? What would the other guy have done differently?
What if I had stayed on at school, had my head screwed on properly and not just chucked it all away, would I be working now? Would I have actually made something of my life instead of creating the next two little geniuses that I have in my two little boys?
I apologise if I appear to be rambling, just being silly I think.
Day 4
Apologies for not updating sooner, I seem to let time run away with me.
Following from day 1's list
8.55 I had half a dozen cheese and chive pringles mmmmmmm with half a glass of cream soda.
at 9.30 my take out arrived. I had a cheeseburger with chips and cheese on top. I am a funny so and so me, I won't eat the bread from this particular delivery place, it has a funny taste to me lol! and I had a coke with it.
At 10.20 I had a bag of mini cream eggs, my main weakness.
Day 2 was a bad day for me. I felt incredibly sick and had dreadful stomach cramps. I considered taking some of my Motillium but I thought I'd see if it passed on its own, and it did all be it very slowly.
11am 6 digestive biscuits white tea with 1 sugar - strong wind movements
12.45 strong nausea starts to kick in
1.15 half a 25g bag of choc chip cookies - start to feel tired and have strong stomach cramps
4.20 half a tube of the remaining chive pringles - sickness subsiding
5.00 2 jacket spuds with garlic butter and cheese
8.00 2 rashers of bacon1 sausage 2 slices of bread with Lurpak butter and 1/2 tin of baked beans
8.55 25g bag of blackcurrant covered yogurt flakes, 1/2 pint of oasis and a curly wurly
Day 3 I spent the day mainly feeling bloated and crampy. I also felt rather up and down yesterday, I had a bad toilet day and it always affects me badly. I started to feel like I'd never feel "normal" again. Maybe I should just let go of my wanting to be a Midwife and accept the fact I am not going to be able to hold down a proper job again.
Food intake on day 3
9am stomach cramps start
11am 2 slices of fruit toast with Lurpak butter, white tea with sugar.
1.30 small cup of coke from Mc D's and a few fries
3.10 fruit flakes with yogurt 25g
7.30 chicken chasseur mixed veg jacket potato and rice with cheese
7.50 Yakult - I must say, those things taste vile *gag!*
10.20 curly wurly a small glass of pepsi - stomach cramps and wind
Day 4
Aaah, day 4. I have a pounding headache, feel rather disheartened as I have had *another* thanks but no thanks email for a job I applied for, maybe I should just give up.....

Welcome to my world
Welcome to my blog fellow writers. I have tried many times to write blogs, but got easily bored and quit. Well, this time I'm going to stick for it for one reason and one reason only, to find out what triggers my IBS and find out what its like living with it.
I have been diagnosed with IBS since I was 13. I suffered with stomach cramps and could never put on any weight. Admittedly I fell into anorexia because I thought the stomach cramps were linked to what I was eating so I basically stopped eating. I know now it was wrong, and I probably did myself some damage but I was soon shocked out of it when I collapsed during a cross country race and was rushed to hospital.
I am now 22 (23 shortly) and have had a definite diagnosis of IBS through means of a colonoscopy (not nice, let me tell you) My symptoms became worse shortly before the birth of my 2ND son in 2005 so I had more tests. Coeliacs disease, Lyme's disease, diabetes amongst some I was tested for all came back negative.
I have been put on Dosulepin and it seems to be helping. Its main use if for depression but its an old use is for the symptoms of IBS. I have put on almost a stone since being on the tablets woohoo! So something must be working, I am now 7st 3lb as of yesterday.
To try and find out what is causing some of the other rather unpleasant symptoms I was refered to a dietition. I've to keep a food diary for the next week and see the dietitian in another month (quite tempted to keep a months worth of diary for a closer look). The outcome of the food diary is to try and eliminate certain "trigger" foods.
This is today's entry so far
At 11am I had 4 slices of fruit toast with Lurpak butter mmmmmmmm yummy
I had a Yakult afterwards on advice of the dietitian, it was a bit strange but OK.
And a cup of peppermint tea - first time I tried it and its pretty foul.
2.30 pm I had a ham and cheese baguette, 1/2 a picnic bar and 200ml of Dr Pepper.
4.50 pm I had 100ml orange flavoured water
at 5.50 I had 25g pack of chocolate chip biscuits
I am now debating what to have for tea, hmmmm. Take out or cook tough call
