Another new Youtube video. I love these What I ate video`s. My diet is evolving after finding myself becoming too strict with what I eat.

My no coffee experiment and the detox that comes with it.

Okay, so I have embarked upon a programme of drinking no coffee for seven days. I love my coffee, grinding fresh beans and waiting as my Bialetti stove top pot brews my favourite cup of black gold is one of the great pleasures of my life.

However, recently, immediately after breakfast, which is the only time I have my coffee I had begun to experience stomach pains. My stomach was incredibly upset and had a yukky sickly feeling. There had been no changes in my diet, no changes in my health in general so I placed the ill feeling stomach to my coffee consumption.

I decided to give it up and I am currently five days into my no coffee programme and boy am I suffering. On the morning of day two I woke with a mild headache and some minute feelings of tiredness and lethargy. Those feelings and the headache have continued to increase until today - five days in - I feel dreadful.

I woke this morning at five am with a terrible headache which was most prominent in the upper area of my nose feeling very like a sinus problem. The headache stretches into my forehead and has a pressured vice like pain. I also woke feeling incredibly tired and struggled to get out of bed until 9am. My mind was not clear also. I felt a little muddled, a little confused.

As I write this it iis currently 3.02pm and my headache has become very troublesome. My eyes have pressure behind them and my forehead hurts a great deal. I am preparing myself to go for a walk to try and clear my head, an activity which I usually love but my lethargy means that walking will be a struggle this afternoon.

Needless to say that I am shocked that only one cup of coffee and foregoing it could have such a negative effect but it is certainly biting hard. I will continue to not have coffee and hopefully soon these symptoms shall pass. Sooner rather than later I hope.

The second video concerning my giving up drinking coffee. So far things are not great.

My Youtube video on why I`m giving up coffee for a seven day experiment.
