Crohn’s Disease, SLimming World and 5k Trg

[Silkey]

Are there any Slimming World runners that suffer from Crohn’s Disease. I am wondering what food /drinks to avoid or should eat while on training and want to lose weight at the same time

Welcome to the forum and well done on your progress.

This guide to the plan is essential reading healthunlocked.com/couchto5... and includes general advice on diet and hydration,though not specific to your condition.

Enjoy your journey.

Hi Silkey,

I've got UC and did Slimming World previously. I never eat too much before a run, just my usual breakfast (cereal bars today) and a drink. I now make sure I leave it at least an hour after eating before I go out as well. I always try going to the toilet beforehand as well, as I find exercise speeds up my tummy!

I'm new to the forum as only discovered it today, but actually completed the app this morning.
