So I begin a new journey of learning what I can and cannot eat. Yesterday I learned that sharp cheddar cheese is definitely off the list. I had been feeling so much better the past few days and was feeling somewhat hopeful. Until we decided to have some scrambled eggs with cheese for a light afternoon Linner. What a mistake that turned out to be! I thought it was pretty innocouus, scrambled eggs; I have been eating them with no problem. Boy was I wrong! My poor battered digestive tract simply had a cascade failure with the addition of the melted cheddar. Up all night!
So, now I know that sharp cheddar cheese is off limits. I guess this is going to be quite a learning curve.
I eat pretty healthy so it is not so much changing my entire diet as it is weeding out the culprits that my digestive system balks at.
There doesn't seem to be much of a running theme on the internet as to what to avoid. It seems to be a very individualized process. So, here is where all of my preaching about being proactive with my own health comes to practice.
I am going to try to keep this blog running as I move through this process. Perhaps I will share it someday if it morphs into anything that might be useful to anyone else.
