That's gluten-, dairy-, soy-, sugar-, caffeine-, alcohol-, starch-(rice and potatoes), any-fruit-but-berries-, and all-beans-but-lentils-FREE!
Yep, elimination diet. My PT and I had been talking about inflammation, which I have a lot of between my dermatagraphism and chronic back issues; she noticed that I'm generally puffy--not in a fat way, but in a water retention/inflammation way.
So I'm doing a cleanse, ostensibly for 3 weeks, but really as long as I can manage, which will probably be shorter than that. And then I'll reintroduce everything, concentrating on the wheat and dairy, which are common troublemakers. I didn't react to either on an allergy skin test, so who knows. But from all my reading, I'm guessing all the anti-inflammatories I took four years ago have unbalanced everything. We'll see.
And at the very least, it'll be a week or two of really healthy eating.
