Crazy Colitis Not Sexy Diet

3 runs to the loo so far this morning, two pairs of pants, 1 pyjama bottom and a bathmat down.
Slightly regretting the extra bowl of lentil stew with brown rice last night but man I was hungry.

Start the day with a glass of hot water and half a lemon juiced.
A tsp of iron supplement.
My thyroxine tablets
Vitamin B12 supplement
A probiotic

Another dash to the loo, which interrupts looking for my phone in the bed.

Really want a cup of tea, so make one with oat milk. I'm not going to have coffee and I'm not going to beat myself up about having tea.

Find out my Crazy Sexy Diet Book by the amazing Kris Carr and turn to day 1 of the 21 day cleanse.

I'm stopping dairy and meat and sugar for the next 21 days. I can do this. The hardest thing will be the alcohol, as there are two parties coming up, but I think wine is a bad one for me.

The thing I'm resisting most is the meditation. I've got the free version of the Headspace app which offers a 3 min breathing exercise, I choose the female voice - it sounds like Ella from Deliciously, which is disconcerting. I try not to think of monopolisation and what has happened to Andy Puddicombe, breathe, it's only 3 minutes. Where is my breath, I think it should be in my stomach but it's more in my chest and shoulders, don't worry the voice says, there is no right or wrong place to feel the breath.

The meditation stops.

See I've done it now, 3 minutes, wasn't so hard was it, just do that every day, in the morning.
I'm taking some kids swimming this morning, so there's my exercise for the day. I won't be eating before that!

I stretch my arms straight up and clasp them together, this isn't easy, I bend over slowly with my legs straight and aim towards the floor, not quite.

Kriss Carr reccomends juice and liquids until lunch. I'll have my overnight oats for lunch then!

A reminder to change my patch pings up on my mobile.
