Sorry for the delay in blogs but I am still here and still fat but have the most amazing news ever……. I may be able to give up the blog and start one called, I woke up skinny!
My doctor has diagnosed my fatness! Before I tell you what it is, I shall tell you what other doctors and people have said my ‘issue’ was. Keep in mind I was a smallish size before I developed a huge protruding stomach. The rest of my body fattened up at a later date but with regards to my stomach, here are some diagnoses
- You eat too many carbs, have you thought of cutting down? My reply “do you think I ate a whole bag of potatoes last night?
- It is probably just wind – they prescribed charcoal tablets. Let me tell you, if my massive stomach (looked about 8 months worth of pregnancy) was a heap of wind, I would have needed a motorbike helmet for the time the wind came out. That wind would have sent me shooting straight to the roof!
- It’s a beer gut, give up the beer and your gut will disappear (no it didn’t work)
- You are gulping too much air while you sleep and when you eat. (another wind issue)
I had had so many ultra sounds, CT scans, MRI’s, saw Chinese herbalist, natrupath, dietician, doctors and went on who knows how many diets.
Thankfully I persisted and saw a doctor who was recommended to me from my wonderful cousin. Even though my new doctor made me stay fat for another year (yes, I had bigger issues than my stomach and bum), I am glad she found the reason for my fatness!
It is …………… a fatty liver and pancreas. Yep, no gas or carb issues, no beer guy or too much air when I eat, it is a liver and pancreas thing. So there you have it. I am not fat all all, well ok, I am fat on the inside but not on the outside!
All I have to do now is lose the inside fat and it’ll show my skinniness on the outside!!
I have more tests tomorrow but have started the new ‘diet for the liver and pancreas” today which I am not loving but I will love the results.
This is the list of foods I can NOT have
- Eggs (oh I will miss my cackleberries)
- ALCOHOL
- All sugar
- All dairy
- All gluten
- All fats and processed foods
- All preservatives
- Corn
- Coffee and Tea
- Soft Drinks
- Warm water seafood
- Lamb
- Pork
- Processed meats eg: ham
That is all I can think of right now and also, this list is making me too hungry for all the things I can’t have. I am at work wondering what I can eat for a snack. So, I am going to the supermarket on my lunch break to buy celery, carrots, cucumber and smoked salmon. That should be a nice selection of snacks.
So, this is my exciting news. I shall keep you all updated on my progress. This is day one and I am feeling skinny already, I just don’t look it that’s all J
Signing off
The Soon to be skinny!
