Digestive Diary

Yesterday wasn’t especially interesting digestion-wise until the evening, i was so busy working that I was kind of distracted from everything including my own digestive system! I had a bit of an upset tummy in the morning with some noisy wind from my backside but I wasn;t the only one because luce was feeling flatulent as well! Had weetabix for breakfast and could feel my tummy churning around for quite a while. When we’ve moved I want to experiment with eating large quantities of weetabix and recording the results! I wonder if I could eat a whole box in a day?

I got very distracted working and it was evening before I realised how hungry I was. However I had to get ready for the grocery delivery so I had to leave my stomach empty and hungry for a while, and the shopping was so late that I ended up rumbling away for a couple of hours.my poor belly! It really hates being empty, and so do I!

when the shopping finally arrived I made a huge pile of thick toast and ate it.... um, a little too fast :X I was so hungry and so scared of it getting cold that I scoffed it way too fast and halfway through I realised I was giving myself indigestion! I started rubbing my tummy hard as I acted to combat the growing pain but it didn;t stop me continuing to eat like a pig. I downed it with a lot of fizzy coke but, oh my god, the indigestion pain I had afterwards were the worst of my life with the possible exception of Christmas 1999!

I tried to bring up some gas to settle it a little but that didn’t;t really seem to help at all, in fact burping just made the sharp pain even worse! I must admit, although I do give myself stomachaches from overeating fairly often I don;’t usually  get indigestion but this was awful! Kept getting single hiccups too and felt really bloated below my rib cage. I ended up snuggling up to luce and pressing my poor, hurting middle against her warm back where I went off to sleep for a couple of hours and woke up with my stomach churning violently and a slightly reduced but still there feeling of indigestion! Urghhhhh! Lucy gave me a stomach massage which helped a bit and I released a couple of HUGE bubbly belches that must have been stuck in there the whole time I was napping!

 my next digestive diary will be on Thursday where I’ll give you a double update - I am holding another art marathon for our move tomorrow which will take up my whole day again but you won’t miss out on anything, I promise :)
