Someone at my chiropractor’s office, back when I first found out about all of my food issues a few months ago, mentioned a bakery in downtown Roswell that cooked without any of the top 8 allergens including wheat/gluten, dairy, and eggs. Praise anything and everything, my life wasn’t over after all! Fast forward to this […]

With all of my weird food sensitivities and what not, I’ve been trying to find new ways to make things that don’t include wheat, dairy, or eggs (my main problem causers). Well, I needed to bring a dessert to my grandparent’s pool party thing this past weekend, and this was the perfect opportunity to try […]

Well, I cut out everything on the list and feel 100 times better! Eggs had a large score on the sensitivity test, and during Whole30 I was eating several for breakfast every day. Its amazing how much food can affect us.After 2 months without several of my favorite foods, I have been given the ok […]

I finally got fed up with not knowing what was making me sick toward the end of my Whole30. I’d been saying I was going to go to a wholistic doctor for years, but “the time was never right”, you know? So I did it, I broke down and found someone reasonably priced in my […]

Well, I’ve still been avoiding eggs and nuts and things are starting to feel better. I’m still not sure exactly what caused my UC demon upset, but I’m at least going to wait to try eggs and nuts until my insides are back to 100%. Which also means I’ve been avoiding drinking. Result: all my […]

Since Monday’s hell, I’ve been feeling way better. Things in my torso region are less grumbly and unpleasant, and my energy levels are through the roof. Eventually I suppose I’m going to have to reintroduce eggs, nuts, etc and figure out what the issue was exactly, but for now forget eggs and nuts. Cutting them […]

You guys.  Remember all the weird stomach things that have been happening? Well, I think they are taking me down a dark road that I’ve been down before. I think they’re steering me towards a flare up. This morning my stomach has felt terrible and despite being tired I woke up at 4:30a. UGH! I […]

Its day 21 and its time to get a little weird. As you all know I battle Ulcerative Colitis, and mostly the Whole30 has fixed all my symptoms! However, I’ve been having some odd things happen lately and today I finally couldn’t stand it anymore, and I did some digging. So first let me tell […]

Did I mention that I’m also training for a half marathon? Well, that’s happening. So in addition, to cutting out sugar, dairy, grains, and legumes for 30 days I am also running 3 days a week, weight/cross training 3 days week, and practicing Yoga 1-2 days a week. Yes, I realize I might be crazy, […]

On the never ending trail to find the cure to Ulcerative Colitis, I’ve decided to try the Whole30. No, this is not a New Years’ resolution. As you’ll see, I did not start on Jan 1, so it doesn’t count. I am not one of those people. Anyway, I’m not going to bombard you with crazy facts […]
