Yea! Today it was declared that I had passed the "elimination" portion of the diet. Now, is the "challenge" portion. This is where I get to eat what I want to figure out if I can stimulate my clinical signs to come back. My doctor recommended that I be smart about this. I thought I would go crazy and start binge eating, but I've worked hard on this for 4 weeks and I don't want to blow all that hard work by challenging a lot of ingredients at one time. I'm sure all this won't matter in a few days, when Thanksgiving is here.
Today I added oatmeal and brown sugar. And, a Milkyway "fun size" bar (why is smaller fun? Like any kid would actually find a smaller candy bar to be fun). And, probably the Three Musketeers bar. Both of these from the freezer from Halloween. Anyway, I am trying to make a limited oatmeal cookie. It's oatmeal, olive oil, water, brown sugar, and pears. Umm...it's not exactly baking up well. Oh well.
