Sealed Pot Challenge 6 ~ Part 2

MissE001

Haven't potted all week - I'm back to using my cashback CC to pay for stuff meaning less change for the pot. A tiny 1p roadkill from when I was working away during the week....it would've been lonely if I hadn't picked it up

Hugs to all who need them :A

Hugs to those who need them.
Happy weekend.

Ahh not really, I've got M.E which gives me terrible stomach/IBS issues so I have a huge fear of going anywhere and needing the loo. I had a bad episode about 5 weeks ago while in town which has just compounded the problem so every time I step out the door the panic sets in which in turn makes me need the loo . I'm actually booked to see a hypnotherapist on Tuesday to see if she can help with the anxiety and the rediculously limited amount of food I can eat as currently I'm surviving on about 1000 - 1200 calories a day if that .
Thankfully she's agreed to come to me rather than me to her as I can't be in a strangers house and need the loo :eek: I'd be so embarrassed

Oh you poor thing *Hugs* I suffer from IBS too, so a lot of that sounds familiar and I can definitely empathise with you I've gone through phases of not eating much because of the IBS (either because of wanting to avoid needing the loo or because of the nausea/cramps that eating can cause). At the moment *touch wood* I seem to be controlling the IBS and therefore the anxiety surrounding it fairly will, but I'm very low in iron levels and although I was prescribed tablets at the end of June I'm too scared to take them in case it messes me up again Seeing a hypnotherapist sounds like a good idea, I hope it goes well

Nothing to pot today as I had a NSD We traded our treadmill for my OH's grandparents exercise bike today, so I'm looking forward to using that

To anyone on here suffering with IBS:
I've had this in varying degrees for over 20 years
It's now almost under control thanks to my brilliant GP who I moved to 6 years ago
He prescribed Imodium & Fybogel together, which seems counter-intuitive cos they do opposite things, but after a year taking those I was able to stop the Fybogel, and now I take 1 Imodium a day. I had stopped eating fruit & veg cos of their effect but now I can even eat acidic things like apples in moderation
I know this may not apply to everyone cos IBS has so many different ways of acting but I thought it might help someone?

Ps I've got 2 £2 coins
If I've still got them when I get home from Mum's, in the pot they go

Just potted another 72p....

I'm hanging on to a £10 note....If I haven't spent it by tomorrow I'll pot it....

I'm hanging on to a £10 also, DH. Planning on putting mine into my bank account tomorrow. I wish banks were open on Sundays!

Just a few pennies today.....but it all helps

HOK3Y

Well, I've been doing this now for just a week and I was curious how many pennies I could save in a week once I put my mind to it and so I decided to count up what I have so far and WOWZAS! I already have £14.09!! That could be £732.68 per year! Bit gobsmacked!

MissE001

Wow HOK3Y, that is pretty amazing :eek:

I haven't counted my pot at all (it's properly sealed) and this is my first year so no idea what to expect...there's everything from stray 1ps to the odd tenner. Can't wait till counting day :money:

Anyway, another wee 50p potted - I have a crisp (ish) fiver and I'm still in 2 minds about whether to pot or not....:)

I've been on holiday in Cornwall the last week and I have 9 £2 coins for my pot and not far off £2 for my stray change pot!

I love this game!

It's almost like free unexpected money!!!!!
