So, I'm a bit confused. I'm not really getting much die-off, apart from the headache, no digestive upsets or anything, and the headache was gone today. I upped my sauerkraut, to even eating pieces of it, and nothing. nada. zip.
I'm starting to wonder if the state of my gut is as bad as I thought it was. I'm doing an experiment tonight. I just ate 2 small crust pieces of pure organic spelt bread (obviously with no rubbish in it) with butter, vegemite and sliced banana, and a cup of tea. Let's see if that does anything. I don't want to wreck my hard work, but I want to see if I'm doing this for a good reason, or if I just need to keep away from the white stuff. (well we all need to keep away from the white stuff but will that be enough to make me feel well?)
Time will tell, I'm off to bed. Had a good rest day today with the kids at mum's, even went to the shops with hubby before we picked them up and felt ok. Headache was dull this morning but is all but gone now. No panadol today.

Day 3 Intro
I was really tired this morning, Pixi woke me at 10.30 to ask me to make him a bottle, and was dragging myself around. I went back to bed but then they started coming in every five minutes to ask me to put things on the computer for them to watch on you tube so I got up. Mum came over at 2, I was very cranky, the poor kids had to deal with that. I went back to bed a few times but only stayed for a few minutes before I had to do something else. I wished mum had taken them yesterday, as I thought this was how it was going to be today. I'm usually a gentle mum and I hate the way I've been treating them, yelling and getting angry. I didn't want them here for that reason.
Still had a hideous headache, couldn't take it anymore, and took another 2 panadol rapid, which dulled it to bearable. Had a cup of soup, a bowl of very fatty soupy stew, with 2 teaspoons of ghee and two teaspoons of sauerkraut juice added. Also had scrambled eggs with ghee for breakfast. Tonight I really wanted something else so I looked at stage 4 and that had GAPS bread, so I looked in the Gut and Psychology Syndrome book for the recipe, and made the GAPS cake! almond meal, eggs, ghee, honey, dates and walnuts. Oh my! so yumm, especially slathered in butter!! Didn't seem to affect me yet so I'll have some more tomorrow.
I'll try the roasted meat too, which is also stage 4. Maybe i'll go get a chicken..mmm
We're looking around for a dehydrator but can't find one for the price we can pay so am thinking about looking at thehealthyhomeeconomist.com to see if she has a way I can do it in my gas oven... I want to soak and dehydrate some nuts so I can make nut butter in my sister-in-law's Thermomix and then I can make the nut butter crepes featured on Stage three. They are butternut pumpkin, eggs and nut butter. Sound loooovely with butter and honey hey??!
Panadol has well and truly worn off now, and the headache is a very dull ache so that's good I think. Hope it doesn't get any worse overnight. I was going to do a yoga class tonight but there's something wrong with the TV and hubby has unplugged it for some reason, so I'll do it tomorrow during the day hopefully. Hubby gave me a neck and shoulder massage tonight even tho he was really tired and cranky too. Poor luv, I can't wait to be done with me so I can start him, he so needs this too.
Kids have gone now to mums so I'll hopefully sleep a lot tomorrow, I feel like I need it.
I feel like I've maybe gotten over the worst of it..? We'll see.
