Well, I've been a little down about my food limitations. Sorry I haven't written sooner. I have come to realize that there are three stages to finding out you have Food Allergies/Sensitivities:
1. Shock - This is by far, the quickest stage, lasting only a couple of days. Wow! Look at this list everyone! This is just craziness! Lettuce? Really?
2. Resignation/Numbness - This lasts a good week and a half. There is much to process, to read, to learn and new health food stores to explore with a new eye.
3. Anger - Who knows how long this one will last, but it comes out of nowhere and hits you like an angry, short-tempered Puerto Rican girl who can't eat rice anymore! You do NOT want to be hit with THAT! But...it will come.
I just had the nastiest fake peanut butter with the worst yeast-free bread I've had yet. Mmm, what a way to start the day!
On the positive side, I'm meeting with a nutritionist tonight! I'm hoping that she'll give me enough info to be able to add some food items back onto my list. Fingers crossed. I'll let you know!
