Well that soup was a HUGE hit - absolutely delicious and the natural yogurt and coriander raita made it completely perfect!

I was good the rest of the night too and just had water at the rehearsal which also rocked and I felt great and so much better than last week when I was very bloated and windy!!

Last night

Well supper was a quick and easy smoked salmon and salad affair, delicious and anti-inflammatory, just very expensive! I made a lovely soup which is mostly anti-inflammatory apart from the bits of chorizo in it (but then I did say I wasn't going to go overboard to start off with).
This is chorizo and parsnip soup with green lentils, onion and celery and I found it on the Waitrose website.

I finished off with some peppermint and nettle caffeine free tea and went to bed at 9.30pm. Woke for a bit then slept til 7. I only mention this as my sleep has been affected by the endo pain in recent nights.

Horse 2

I have just run out to the shops and bought a tub of pineapple chunks - to help with pain hopefully and a superfood drink which although not as great as making your own is definitely better than diet coke(!)

Back on the horse

Oooof - back on this with a bang. Really bad pains over past few days whilst I have had my period. Also irregular cells in last smear test.

Why did I ever stop? Well because my pains had gone away completely and I foolishly started slipping in bad things here and there. Right then no more of that and I am going to introduce the anti-inflammatory foods and weed out the inflammatory ones gradually.

Big ones to start


  • no alcohol - replace with superfood juice and fizzy water and green tea (no caffeine)
  • More tomatoes/sweet potatoes/berries
  • Home cooking
  • Juicing

Will also keep food diary in a spreadsheet to help monitor pains/IBS etc etc.

Welcome back!

Neglected blog!

Well it is ages since I last posted and I have some news and recipies!

News is I feel loads better sticking to my anti-inflammatory way of eating and have lost well over a stone in the process. My weight is 9st 3.5 at the moment.

I have had twinges of the endo but oddly after my periods so I will need to do more digging as I thought the worst pain would be before them and there was virtually none. Still, loads better and not the really awful pain of before.
