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 […]

Yesterday marked day 30 of my first Whole30. I was in an overall grumpy mood all day due to this feminine things that keeps happening (seriously, is once a month necessary????). Regardless, it was still day 30. We planned a Whole30 dinner, and afterwards I took my friend to drop off her rental car. On […]

Well, following the AIP seems to be helping. I’ll admit I had some tomatoes, but nothing bad happened. I have a feeling it was the nuts, or maybe none of those foods and its that the digestive enzymes are helping. Guess we’ll find out eventually.Point is I feel so much better. Awesome things that have […]

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 […]

This has by far been the best week yet. Other than a little boredom with my food options, I don’t crave foods I can’t eat (like, you know, sugar), my pants sure as hell fit better, my skin is clearer, and waking up is so much less terrible. I’m not sure I’m ready to claim […]

Last night I was finally able to eat without wanting to throw up! #winning Seriously, it was even ground beef – taco salad. I’d say week three may be a good one.This morning I had a totally ‘original’ and brilliant idea! Ok, so it wasn’t original but it did occur to me without searching for […]

Superhuman status update: I think I may actually be regressing. This week my stomach feels a little off, I’m sneezy, and tired. Even though I read the book and the articles and other people’s experiences and I should have known this was coming, somehow I suppose I assumed I was the exception. You know, “that […]
