Sliming a lot? Ginger tea to the rescue!!

[Fanny Adams 7]

I just spent a horrible 2 weeks being too tight and have finally gotten some relief, having 0.25ml taken out today. Over the last 2 weeks, I have been PBing and sliming almost every day and could not move past thick Soups and mushies. The ONE thing that saved me, once I had started the PB cycle for the day was ginger & honey tea.

Grate a small piece of fresh ginger (peeled) until you have approx 0.5 - 1 teaspoon, put it in a mug with a teaspoon of honey, fill with hot Water and let it steep for a few minutes. Sip slowly.

It cuts through the thickness of sliming like nothing else I've known - settles the stomach down and gives excellent relief. Highly recommended!

Good to know fanny. I use herb tea when I'm feeling a little puny myself. I like peppermint tea for that occasional nausea. Chamomile works well too, when I just need something soothing. I love ginger, so I'll try it. Pre-band, I ALWAYS reached for ginger ale when I was sick. My son gets sea sick, so we always brought it along when we went snorkeling. It worked like a charm for him. but of course, no more fizzy drinks, so the tea will be welcome...... Glad you're feeling better. I was getting worried about you. Did you fly out early or tough it out?
