It’s been a majorly busy week with the children on school holidays, a wedding, preparing for work and my fresh start, a hen night, a wedding, an appointment to set up my website (woohoo expensive but exciting), and appointment with the brain tumour lady to charity fundraise and trying to do hypnosis recordings without the dog snoring in the background!

I am OK, taking time to rest and relax in between the growing list of things to do and so far  I think I’m doing pretty good.

Lets start at the beginning, the wedding was amazing, I had the loveliest time, I didn’t look ill, in fact I looked great in my beautiful dress and high heels and even a glass of prosecco, I caught the brides bouquet and I danced and laughed. All in all a wonderful wedding.

The website people are fabulous and are going to be able to get everything I want to start my healing business of to an incredible start. Like I said before exciting and expensive 🙂

The appointment with the lady from Brain Tumour research was incredible, so much so I cried after, I never used to cry it’s annoying. I am going to start my walk this weekend, can’t believe it’s a year since all this started. She is going to support me and provide me with everything I need to promote the charity. I have a couple of t-shirts that I’ll be wearing a lot to show who I am going to be supporting. I’ve been invited to visit the research lab and see what work is happening, I’ve been asked to be interviewed, I’m not sure about that yet and I will be introduced to various people. I’ve been described as an inspiration, I honestly don’t know how true that is, I think more tenacious. I’m going to go putting my posters up in as many places as I can to get money given to the just giving page. I am now passionate about this charity.

And now I’m back on the subject of food, I got into a conversation with someone last week who told me that there is a proven link between tumours growing and sugar, as an ice cream fan this breaks my heart, unless my amazing ice cream man can make me a sugar free ice cream. So I’m back to the reading to see if and what the link is and should I really consider cutting sugar out of my diet. The first thing I read was sugar awakens cancer cells, so far that makes me miserable. I’ll be honest there is a LOT to read on the link of sugar to cancer and tumours and it’s ALL bad. So I am genuinely thinking of cutting out my sugar intake, which is a lot more limited than it used to be thanks to slimming world, but as many ladies I do get ‘times’ that I literally crave sugar and nothing else can fill the gap. I know that the chocolate and sugar is just not good for me but the thought it could be a contributing factor to my uninvited head guest growing back into his bungalow is terrifying. So Davina McCall is coming to my rescue again with her 5 weeks to sugar free. The thing that I know I will struggle with most is how to replace the sweet stuff, I understand that like any other addiction it’ll take a couple of weeks to get the sugar out of my system and then I won’t get the cravings. So once the alpen lights have gone they won’t be replaced. I think tomorrow morning I will be doing a sugar addiction recording and putting myself on a 4 week course of it. I love that I can do this for myself and feel good for it. I am looking forward to seeing a brighter skin and as always I am looking at increasing energy levels, I’m always looking at increasing my energy levels and now that almost everything else is either taken out or put in, the only thing left to change is sugar, so that’s it I will speak to the ice cream man and have him find me a sugar free ice cream that I will LOVE

Davina has done a few interviews on her sugar free diet, I still love her even though she didn’t reply to my message ages ago. Here is one of her interviews http://www.dailymail.co.uk/home/you/article-2892387/Food-exclusive-Davina-s-5-Weeks-Sugar-Free.html
