Day one

FABED agreed to help APFED promote the national eosinophilic awareness week last month.  We asked our members to come up with ideas and quite a few wanted to "eat like their kids" for a day. 

What a good idea thinks I! We initially planned to just help those that we could, it was then suggested (by whom i forget) that it would be brilliant if someone did that for the whole of the week.  Cue one idiot then saying he could do it, but if it was to be the case it had to be done properly, go on Elemental EO28 for the whole week!!

Lots of eating over the weekend and i still dod not know on Monday morning if i would go through with it.  Co-incidentally, when i made my morning cuppa before i went to work i realised there was no milk.  So i had a black tea and thought i would skip meals and only have black tea and water and see how i felt. Whilst getting ready for work, weighed myself, needless to say it will be interesting over the week to see how that one goes.

Michelle informed me during the morning that one couple were prepared to sponsor me £100 if i went ahead, no brainer then?  Got home at 6.45 pm and everyone had eaten and almost 24 hours since i had.  No drama there, Michelle had kindly made me dinner, 1 litre of Elemental EO28, yummy!!  It didn't taste that bad to begin with, although i did have to flavour it.  It really filled me, i drank the litre over about 4 hours.

The taste really gets the back of the throat after a while, it leaves a really tinny taste in the mouth.  I found the warmer it got, the stronger and more unpleasant the taste.  By time i had finished the litre, i felt quite sickly.  Went to bed fairly full and not at all bothered that i had not eaten.
