Oh How Time Flies!


I cannot believe how quickly this time has gone! Sunday will mark the 21st (and final) day of the 7 food restriction!  I have to say... it was not nearly as awful as I though it would be!  I am actually enjoying a lot of the foods that I have been eating and have branched out!  I ate Bison for the first time and even used it as a substitute in my spaghetti! 

As proud as I was of myself for not cheating... I have some bad news to report.  This past Tuesday I ate... an Oreo! Noooooooo! I was doing so well!  But, the good news I guess is that I only ate one hahaha... that NEVER happens! I am still really proud that that is the only thing I have done in nearly 21 days.  Trust me when I say I have never been able to stick this long lol... I honestly think it has a lot to do with the blog and the support that my friends and family have been giving me!

Liz and I have been debating which food we would like to add back into our diets as of Monday.  I think the grand winner will be dairy... we really miss cheese ha!  This is obviously not going to be a heavy cream, cheese, butter fest... we are going to add it in slowly to see how our bodies react.  I have a feeling that my two main food intolerance issues are going to be with Dairy and Gluten :(  We shall see!

I am even tossing around the idea of keeping up the "restricted" diet for most days of the week and allowing myself a "cheat" day.  This isn't to say that I will have McDonalds for breakfast, lunch and dinner... I will simply allow myself to eat something that wouldn't be included in the restrictions.  I am not sure what I want to do in the future, but I do know that this isn't something that I want to completely give up.  To be honest... I have been feeling pretty good! 

Only two more days!! Woo hoooo!!
