Woke without a bubbling tummy.
BM this morning ok. A little loose but formed. Beetroot visible. Maybe slightly green, not much though.
Up close looked slightly odd... slimy maybe. Not sure. All in all though, relatively normal.
Have had settled tummy today. Woke in morning as I usually do (about 4am) to wee, and I was surprised to find that I did not have a bubbling tummy - much joy to me as I ate bulk sweet potato last night! So it can't be the SP causing probbies.
My mum and I have come to the conclusion that it is high protein in my diet that causes bubbling. I really think this is the case because my stool test I got done showed that I was lacking Pancreatic Elastase 1 which is an important enzyme for protein break down.
So, from now I'm going to try and limit the amount of protein (portion size) each day and monitor the effects after eating protein.


Today I was reading more about foods for Thyroid health.
Goitrogens are present in a number of vegetables. These include broccoli, cabbage, brussel sprouts, sweet potato. GAY!
These inhibit iodine from being used for efficient thyroid hormone production. I'm going to try and limit these foods a bit more... although the thought of a day without sweet potato is depressing ;P
Today I felt a bit spacey in the head, after lunch time. Ok though in general.
Did yoga/stretching this morning., then walked down to town with Mum to the supermarket to buy some stuff, carried heavy bags home. Good workout.
This afternoon went to beach and swam in lovely sea and got some sun and salt on the face. Then walked up Mt Tinbeerwah. Nice nice niceeee.
