It still counts as doing too much even when you want to do it
Okay, well...I'm back/still on the SCD pureed food plan. I continued to feel pretty shitty after eating the solid food on Monday night, right up until I went to bed. Still felt uncomfortable when I went to bed, but at least I woke up feeling okay. I started adding a good amount of fat (and salt and pepper) to my purees, though, and noticed a huge improvement in my energy levels and general outlook on life. I even made it to the gym Monday and today (Wednesday)!
So I think I'm gonna stick with it for a while longer. Long-term, I'm going to add in All The Vegetables before I start reintroducing fruit (no semantics about fruit/vegetables--you know what I mean).
As for things I won't re-introduce at all, I've said this before, but I'm gonna try to stick with it this time--at least for the foreseeable future--No Nuts and No Dried Fruit. The only exception is when I'm traveling and don't have access to a kitchen. Nuts and dried fruit (or raw fruit) is pretty tough on my GI tract and I don't need the extra calories--much less the hit of sugar from dried fruit. So, gone.
I was feeling kinda tired this morning but really wanted to lift some weights, so I went to lift weights and then had such a bad post-breakfast swelling reaction that I had to change my outfit before I left for work. *sigh* I know there is some correlation between stress and swelling, but it's not like that's the only time I swell a lot. Just when I am under a lot of stress, I always swell more. It's a squares and rectangles thing. I'm super tired, now, too, andI think I'm gonna lie down for a nap and just stay late to make up the time. ETA: AH HA HA HA HA HA HA NO. That so did not happen. Wow things got busy fast.
Andrew sent me a message yesterday asking how I was doing. Aw. He's such a good trainer.
