Dreaded Lurgy

I am sick!!
Peta, Ben and Phoebe are sick!! (Children)
Blair isn't sick (apparently because he is "hard").

I have had my whinge about the liver thing and am getting on with it. I know that the medical system isn't all shit and they are under extreme amounts of stress. I just want to clarify that my doctor was not the one to put me on this medication it was the specialist at Christchurch Women's.

My plan of attack is as follows:

I am going to do an 8 week Liver Cleansing Diet. During this time I will still stick to my weight watchers points as I need to make sure I have enough calorie intake for the Phoebmeister. The Liver Cleansing Diet (LCD) is basically eating a combination of whole foods with plenty of fruit and veges, herbs and lots of water and raw vege juices. Yum, I hear you shout. Also there is no dairy, which is fine as I have been dairy free anyway. No spreads etc and bread is all wholemeal. Chicken and eggs are allowed in the first and last 2 weeks and during the middle 4 fish and egg whites are the only animal protein allowed. There are plenty of protein options though, with hommus, nuts, seeds, etc.

I start on Thursday, after WW weighin on Wednesday night. I am still going to keep weighing in every week as I am a numbers girl.

So, you may notice there have been a few too many treat options in the last couple of days but, for sanity reasons, I need to be able to have a little bit of this and a little bit of that. Because, once I start this LCD it is very strict. It has had huge success with Liver damage and lowering of high blood pressure.

I just also wanted to say a big thankyou for all the supportive comments. I appreciate that you take the time to comment as I know time is precious for everyone.

Must go and blow my nose.

Thanks for listening :)
