In fact I finished that jar off as it had been hanging around for while.<\/p>\n<p>I hung around in Henley inbetween Early Risers and Day camp and had breakfast in Starbucks at 7.30am which comprised the most ridiculously large coffee you have ever seen and an &#8216;all day breakfast&#8217; panini.<a href=\"https:\/\/a-healthier.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/IMAG0546.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-552 alignright\" title=\"IMAG0546\" src=\"https:\/\/a-healthier.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/03\/IMAG0546-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Today I weigh 80.5kg , 34.5 inch waist, 37inch belly, 40 inch hips. All after my gluten-filled morning. My belly is very painful and bloated already.<\/p>\n<p>In my &#8216;old diet&#8217; days I snacked a lot. I was hungry when I got in at 11 and had a frusli bar. Very sweet it was too, and small!<\/p>\n<p>I went Tesco shopping whilst I was in Henley to pick up some of the old bits I used to get us. I had originally thought I would do this blog based on an average diet for most families. However I couldn&#8217;t! There were too many food things I just don&#8217;t want to eat now. Like milk, I really don&#8217;t fancy milk now, so haven&#8217;t bought any. I did buy cheese and yoghurt though. I also gave up wheat about 7 years ago and when I do eat bread, I make it from spelt, so I&#8217;ll be doing that again for a few weeks too.<\/p>\n<p>Lunch &#8212; was really suffering with gut ache from the wheat panini. Didn&#8217;t really have exactly what I used to have (which would have been bread) but had spinach soup, mixed salad and ham.<\/p>\n<p>Snack &#8212; needing something sweet now. Nature Valley crunch bar and coffee.<\/p>\n<p>OK, had such bad stomach ache that I had to lie down! Whilst I haven&#8217;t had wheat every day or even every week for many years now, I do still eat it occasionally. It gets me most times like this. I was walking like I had back ache. What a state!<\/p>\n<p>Mid afternoon snack as I was hungry (needed something sweet again) yoghurt, desiccated coconut and raisins.<\/p>\n<p>Taught BodyPump, no difference in energy. But so much more thirsty than normal.<\/p>\n<p>Dinner: Lamb Korma. Made with a jar sauce. Brown rice. Some added veg, but nothing green. Boo, I do make green veg part of my meal plan twice a day now and rarely have rice with curry these days, this is going to be odd.\u00a0 Afters was vanilla yoghurt, desiccated coconut and raisins. Coffee.<\/p>\n<p>Went out to do a massage. Came home and had lemon and ginger tea and 3\/4 small wheat free crackers I&#8217;d made at the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>Day one feedback: Thirsty, bloated, gut ache, altered digestion.<\/p>\n<p>Going to bed about 11pm. Getting up at 05.50 for BodyPump.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Day one: Went to visit Henley Early Risers so was up at 5.10am.\u00a0 Had a large black coffee it&#8217;s always bean not instant (such a coffee snob!), 2 slices of rye bread toasted, scrape of butter and blob of proper &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/a-healthier.me.uk\/?p=551\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[41,9],"tags":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/a-healthier.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/551"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/a-healthier.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/a-healthier.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/a-healthier.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/a-healthier.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=551"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/a-healthier.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/551\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":565,"href":"https:\/\/a-healthier.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/551\/revisions\/565"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/a-healthier.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=551"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/a-healthier.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=551"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/a-healthier.me.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=551"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
