Soy no more

Another food to thoroughly and permanently cross off my list? Soy.

I cut out most soy products a long time ago. But I still had a bottle of wheat-free tamari lingering in the fridge and I figured how much damage could it do used as a marinade?

Well.

One marinaded pork dish later, my dress that was loose this morning is tight across my abdomen. Bloat city. And I can't breathe through my nose at all. My sinuses feel like they're trying to explode out my face. Also, so tired. Ugh. I fell dead asleep during my lunch break and was out cold for a good forty minutes.

Soy = Definite Allergen for me

Good to know!

This is sad. And also makes me hungry for Thai House's Basil Soy stir fry. Mmmmmm.

I had no problems with the wine on Monday, and I'd much rather drink wine than eat soy products. I'm calling this one an almost-draw--just slightly in my favor.

You have fun with your Basil Soy stir fry. It's been so long since I had soy as anything other than an additive or as soy sauce, I don't miss it.

Well, good! I'm glad it isn't such a big deal. And also, re: wine... YAY!

Yeah, not a big deal at all. I cut out tofu, tempeh, soymilk, etc., when I got diagnosed with thyroid disease.

Serious yay for wine! I was so relieved!
