My Daily Diet

Hello everyone!

So I've seen a lot of blog posts/ Youtube videos recently about what people are eating at the start of this year.  So I thought I would jump on the bandwagon and give you a run down on my daily diet today.

I know what you are thinking- what has this got to do with fashion and beauty?  The answer= what we put in our bodies has an effect on our complexion, hair, nails, body shape etc etc. 

In particular I have to really watch what I eat as I have Coeliac Disease which is an autoimmune disease and causes my body to have a fairly violent reaction to gluten, which is naturally occurring in wheat.  Just to clarify- I am not fussy, no I cannot even have a little bit without being ill and no its not contagious.  A lot of people think I'm just making a fuss which can be very aggravating but the Coeliac UK charity is doing a of of work to spread the word, especially with major food suppliers to get us more variety and choice.  Recently I have been struggling with the diet as something I'm eating is making me ill- I just can't quite work out what it is... very frustrating. When I struggle I have to keep a diary of what I eat then talk to my dietician.  I find it easier to take photos of what I've eaten than write it down and voila.... todays blog!

So here is what i've eaten today:

So there you have it.  Its quite interesting to look back over what you have eaten for the day and assess.  I've realised although I drink tea and orange juice I don't seem to drink any water... which I need to fix!  I do take some things to help keep my gut and body is good condition- the pro- biotic drink in the morning for instance and the multivitamin and iron tablets I take in the evening.  

Hopefully soon I will find out what it is that is making me poorly which will have a knock on effect on my hair, complexion and nails.  Until then I will just make the best of it.

I hope you have all had a fab day today and that you all look at the food you eat everyday so you can make it the best for you.
