Well, I went 12 days on the gf/df trial and gave up today.
We had a potluck at church.
Breakfast - one piece of low salt turkey bacon, scrambled eggs, half of a banana, tea
Lunch - potluck - white rice, salad, tofu dishes w/ veggies, a little bit of lasagna, something else with noodles - not a lot, baby bok choy dish, and part of a brownie and part of a cinnamon cake thing. yum!
I will find out if I feel different since I totally had gluten and some dairy.
Dinner - salad and asian pear , almonds and tostitos
ugh. I can tell that I ate differently today.
upset digestion.
snack/dessert - more gluten -and sugar - tried a little piece of pumpkin cake that my daughter made. it is good.

Day 11 - Friday, March 18, 2011
I am not sure that this gf/df thing is making any difference at all.
That could be because I am probably not really getting all of the gluten or dairy out of my diet.
It is harder than I thought to do that.
Breakfast - a slice of turkey ham, an egg- fried, and a slice of goat cheese and tea and a ginger cookie
(yes, I know the cookie is probably fattening, but it is yummy and gluten free)
Lunch - banana, rice chips, and a ginger cookie
the ginger cookies are the teff/ ginger/ molasses cookies
they are really good and totally gluten free
they are also sugar free
but they have a half of a cup of molasses, a half of a cup of maple syrup and a half of a cup of almond butter in the batch of 24 cookies. is that bad? they taste good!
Snack, Tostitos, goat cheese, olives, ginger cookie
Dinner - potluck - fried rice w/ shrimp and some sort of meat and veggies, stir fry veggies - carrot, cauliflower, broccoli, hardboiled egg - the kind cooked w/ pork and soy sauce so it is brown, tofu, ginger cookie

Day 10 - Thurs, March 17, 2011
I am getting tired of this gf/df thing.
And I am not even doing it right.
Bummer.
I feel hungry without the empty carbs.
Then I eat other stuff instead.
Like almonds.
Which are fattening.
Some people have lost weight going gf.
Not me.
So for today:
Breakfast - cooked millet and amaranth with a little coconut milk and tamari and a fried egg
tea, and a teff/molasses/ginger cookie.
Lunch - salad - greens, strawberries, olives, gf dressing, water
Snack - hummus chips, lemon, ginger cookie
Dinner - rice/quinoa casserole w/ carrot, onion, butternut squash, cilantro, collard greens
a few bites of roast beef
some purple yam and carrots that were cooked w/ the roast
some goat cheese and hummus chips

Well, it is the Ides of March. Beware.
At least one of Japan's nuclear reactors is melting down and radiation is leaking out.
Is that how Godzilla was created?

So sad.
It really looks that way.

and - Godzilla

see the resemblance?
The time change is messing with me.
Morning is way to early now.
Breakfast - a fried egg, twig tea, and a banana
Lunch - salad - spinach, greens, quinoa mix, olives, blueberries, dressing,
pepitas, almonds, apple, banana, rice chips
Dinner - quinoa mix, baked tofu, salad, strawberries, blueberries, carrots, celery, a little sweet potato - plain
Snack - tostitos and turkey ham and mustard - yum!

Day 7 Monday, March 14, 2011
I have survived one week of gf/df eating. I have had small amounts of each - both on purpose and accidentally a few times, so I am not sure if it truely counts as total gf/df.
I have not had as much achiness as I had last week before starting this gf/df diet.
Is that related or coincinence?
Not sure.
I will go one more week and see.
Breakfast/brunch - a mix of quinoa, millet, buckwheat, teff and amaranth cooked in chicken broth,
and an egg, and tea.
snack - corn chips and salsa at Costco, toasted pepitas, grapefruit, lemon
Dinner - quinoa mix, salad, a bit of gf bread that I made. It is really bad. I guess I will throw it out.
rice crackers, more pepitas, probably something else - can't remember
