Swell

Warning: Pity party time.

I've got nasty bloating and discomfort again every time I eat. I noticed it on Sunday, but thought it was just a fluke from eating out twice in a day. Yesterday, though, I only had blueberries with cottage cheese for breakfast, I skipped lunch, and for dinner I had an okra/tomato/chicken dish I made myself--so I know there weren't hidden carbs in it. mckitterick suggested too much salt, but...really? I was bloated so badly I had to take off my pants. I'm pretty swollen today after my post-workout protein drink.

I'll finish off the remaining cottage cheese and peaches today so they don't just get thrown out. Then it's back to animals and leafy greens, probably until after KCRF. I don't have time to deal with going back to KU Med for another test right now. We were unable to replace the front desk receptionist when she left and we don't know if we'll get our student worker back. One of the other secretaries is taking vacation the first two weeks of September and then the other secretary is on vacation for pretty much all of October.

Awesomesauce.

I wanted to cry after dinner last night, but that would've just added a stuffy nose to my misery.

Unresolved G.I. issues might be why I've gained weight this month, despite cutting most grains ('cept for last weekend's binge) and increasing my exercise.

I was getting attached to the idea of being able to eat like a normal person. Dang.

Damn! That sucks. Being able to engage in these pity party sessions is a big reason to have an online journal. In fact, I am about to make a post like that myself.

I hope you are able to get the digestive issues under control.
