Today is the first day since before the weekend that I'm going to the toilet properly. It was all caked up inside me and not moving for the life of me.
Now there were probably a few reasons for this. I don't drink as much water when I'm at home. Ma doesn't like me drinking out of a pint glass, which means I use smaller glasses, which means although I drink the same amount of glasses, I drink less water. Less than half in fact.
Also, my diet changes when I'm at home. They eat a lot more meat at home than I do –although they say they don't eat as much as they used to, they still eat it every day and I don't do that. Meat is grand, don't get me wrong, but every day means my system isn't prepared for it.
Finally, there's always a certain amount of stress involved with being at home. I've figured out that stress affects my tummy more than I'd like to admit, so this could have something to do with the whole thing. All in all, it's a combination of factors really.
So what can I do about it? Well what I have been doing subconsciously I suppose. Drink more water, get back to my normal diet and generally get my routine going again.
On the exercise front – that's ground to a halt and with my duathlon next week I don't think I'll be breaking any records. On the other hand, if I view it as a nice day out, 2 walks and a cycle, then I'll be ok and get through it. I do need to get my bike in order first though.
I've also got a Wii on order. I'm picking it up this evening from tesco – thank God for clubcard vouchers! – and I'm really looking forward to getting that home and getting started on the wii fit. I have a few jobs to tick off my list before I start so it may be a late night tonight. But hey ho, it's not every day I get a computer accessory that claims to revolutionise my life!!!
