Monday 1 February

Things have been rather hectic and not had much time to post.

My period started yesterday and I could see the flushing and paps coming but not raised like they used to.  My mood is getting terrible prior to the actual period – I can be quite withdrawn, sad, depressed, tearful and angry – someone said that this is a sign of vit B deficiency so perhaps that will help now I have started to take them.

The exercise is going good – I feel it necessary to keep fit and healthy and I know that this doesn’t help the skin but I do still feel that healthy insides are better than my unhappiness concerning my skin.

I am eating a lot of fish, no chocolate for weeks but still can’t give up the crisps.  I have purchased some palm oil to cook with as I have heard loads of reports about that and it was reasonably priced – bit more expensive than olive oil so will continue to use that,but will try and not have vegetable or sunflower oil as the processes they go through are quite extreme.

My husband and family are still very supportive and I’ll continue to monitor my face – quite obsessively throughout the day when eating and consuming anything.
