I've now added 2 foods back to my diet--apples/applesauce and hamburger. Tomorrow I start with eggs I think. Or vegetables. It should start to get easier now.

I'm feeilng gulity because I"m skipping church again. I haven't been since Christmas eve. It's because the foods I can eat aren't portable and my blood sugar sometimes drops enough I need to eat NOW.Protein helps but it's not like I can bring a hamburger to church (and that's the only protein I've cleared yet).

By next week I think that will be better but I feel like I"m not doing something I should. My therapist cautioned me about saying no when I am not well enough to do things; his timing was impeccable. I'm doing well on adding foods back to my diet but I get really tired really easily along with the blood sugar issues.

I'm feeling better on the elimination diet. I hate to admit that because it means there is some benefit but I do. I am so excited for the next few weeks to add vegetables and fruit and more diverse meat. Even pasta sounds good although I'll be starting with chickpea based pasta and sticking to something like that to help control the pre-diabetes.

I can't wait for tomorrow's egg. Or green beans. Or egg....so hard to choose...
