General Discussion / Re: Countdown to Holiday
« on: November 15, 2012, 09:01:27 PM »
WOW!  Your holiday sounds splendiferous!  (Envious muchly ;) )
As a "newbie", Id say just try to be strong and if you "slip up" on a meal, just get back to eating FTS for the next one...  There should be a great choice of yumminess that you CAN have on that cruise ship  :)

Im so sorry to hear about your job, as TooSweet has said and I to believe, everything happens for a reason.. and I also believe life never throws things at us that we cant handle, its just your attitude to it that helps you through.
WHY they cut any type of staff back in the medical profession is beyond me.  You need everyone to make it "gel".  ::)
Been through that to, it always works out in the end.  Sounds to me like it could be an exciting new year ahead for you, embrace it!

Have a wonderful holiday!!!!!  ;D
(PS... healthy body=healthy mind=able to cope with whatever comes your way)

Oh wow!  Im so pleased for you Scott!  You're incredibly inspiring!

Im only on day 6 of my lifestyle change, but I was thinking last night... for once I won't be that girl setting herself a New Year's Resolution to lose weight and then giving up a few weeks into the new year  ;)  Because Im making that change NOW!

Congrats on that 10 mile run!

Well, here is my suprising result and conclusion to the headaches and sleepless nights....
Not only had I not slept for 2 nights and had that tension in my neck and shoulders... but I {ahem}, hadn't pooped for 2 days either  ::)

So I went to the search box on the forums, typed in constipation and read some of the advice given.  Then I ate a bowl of SF jelly, an hour later had a good poop ;)... and last night I was headache free and slept soundly!

Who would have thought it would all be connected to not pooping ::)  Headaches and poop be gone! ha ha ha

Hi TooSweet

Thanks so much for the welcome, yes you did before and it was much appreciated!  :)
I think the pain was just muscle tension in my neck and shoulders.. or maybe I need to change my pillow and get better neck support...
Maybe it is lack of caffeine!  I used to drink at least 6 cups of tea a day and yesterday only had 2 cups of coffee  ;)

Im glad you liked my blog, thanks!

Im sure Im getting headaches from weaning myself off sugar, but seriously... how long do they last for?  I was fine on day 1, day 2 was a dull ache, yesterday was a migraine and then I woke up with the most intense feeling in the back of my neck and felt like my head would explode in the early hours of this morning.  Has anyone else experienced this side effect as they started FTS?  Ive just been drinking loads of water and taking ibuprofen.  Just wondering how long it will go on for 'cos Id really like to get a good nights sleep and not be taking ibuprofen  ::)

 ::)  Yes, here I am again after starting, maybe it was 2 weeks ago.  I was fine until the weekend and then "fell off the wagon", no more like flew off that wagon...  :-[

I got back to it on Wednesday this week.  I started a blog, here it is if you'd like to follow the 30 day challenge Ive set myself  ;)
