Change in routine

I really struggle to find a breakfast that does not kick off dumping right away. For a while the Buttered-Jam-Bun in the morning worked fine but since a week it makes me fatigued and running to the toilet almost immediately. So today I try something new. Müsli with dry fruits and some chocolate drops in Oat milk. I was never a friend of Müsli but I am out of ideas. My special breakfast with hashbrowns and beans does not work anymore and the bun does not work. The dry wrap with nothing does work but is just a boring and dull wrap. It's difficult to cope with those random changes. It could also well be, that in a week I can eat a bun with hashbrowns no problem. But who has the time to try out a new breakfast every now and then, risking to be out of service for the next 2 hours? ** Update: Nope. That didn't work either.

Out for breakfast after a rubbish morning

Some mornings I wake up and immediately have to use the bathroom. I would be trapped there for 30 minutes while the kids need to get ready for school, breakfast and packed lunch need to be prepared and the other half might want to follow the call of nature too at some point. I don't understand why this happens. There is no relation to what or when I have eaten last the evening before. Also it doesn't matter how the night was, if the kids were ill and needed attention at 2 am or slept peacefully through the night.  Some mornings are just like this. So today I am extra hungry, which leads us to our favourite café again. Let's see how this works out, usually if the day starts like this, the rest of the day is not very easy on my digestive system either. 

Sibylle's special

Ever since the cancer struck I wasn't able to eat bread or buns. First I couldn't swallow it, then I couldn't process it. I was never a breakfast person and used to have a coffee in the morning and wait for lunch but now I need a breakfast. Naturally, living in England, I tried fried breakfast and after a few setbacks which involved eggs, butter and tomato I found the perfect breakfast for me. Beans, hash browns and mushrooms. No salt or spices added just a bit cooking oil. I have to take my time, it can't be too hot and presumably I can only eat half but this is my go to breakfast if I need to be somewhere and can't use a toilet any time soon.
