I am Clair, 29 (nearly the big 3-0!) I have classical PKU.
My hobbies include reading, posting pictures of my black cat, Cosmic and playing xbox for too long ignoring all my basic bodily needs.
I attempt to cook and bake #PKU friendly foods and I share any recipes I do perfect on my Instagram page. Ginger_PKU_Goddess.
Feel free to also add me there!
Open to all and any discussions regarding PKU, I hope to pass on the lessons I've learnt to others.

Short night, it affects recovery and training. It is important to listen carefully to your body, set limits and promote recovery. It's good physically and psychologically. (After all, we must also navigate through other personal and professional responsibilities.) Take care of yourself!
(But look at these spots! The thing that actually should be routine, but almost never comes out like this. Now if only the results were as good as the spots... 🤪)
It’s important to not overeat and looking at calories is a way to achieve that.
But when I take a look at the total amount of calories of just the PKU formulas, it’s a meal. (550 calories). 😒
The only way I found dealing with that is intermittent fasting (time restricted window), eating only 2 meals of food and carefully spread formulas during the day.
One thing I always get stuck on when eating with #PKU is remembering to eat and remembering what I actually have in my cupboards!
So I have my fruit and snack bowls, all filled either prescription snacks, less than half a gram or completely protein free snacks, so I'm less likely to go for the snacks that are more interesting but heavier in protein (yoghurt, crisps etc)
This feels like the end of a very long, hard nearly 3 year journey (started pre-contraception diet in 2021!) but I'm so damn proud of myself for getting through it, and to come out the otherside with a beautiful, happy and healthy baby.
No more carrying around extra water, powder everywhere, bag explosions, spilling on carpet, feeling sick from being too full, midnight forcing to get last one in, but just most importantly NO MORE DRINKS! 🥺
Bon matin!
Une donnée extrêmement importante pour nous tous.
