Elimination Diet Day 5
Day 5 was the first day I hang pangs of "deprivation". Maybe it's because I have some Macadamia nuts in my cupboard and I *love* Macadamia nuts.
And while I realize that many elimination diet plans include nuts and seeds and even grains and legumes in their initial three-week cleanse, my intuition tells me that the more "things" I include during this "eating clean" part the harder it may be to discern what is causing additional inflammation in my body.
Suddenly three weeks is feeling like a really long time.
Nothing new or exciting to report today. Pretty much a lot of the same foods (salmon, stir fry, avocado). Tomorrow I may go back to salad... and I may even try some bison (it'll have been a full week of fish).
So far, I still seem to have the energy to mow the lawn (which around here is an hour-long ordeal in extreme heat and it's all completely aerobic as I push and pull and wrangle the mower through the Mars landscape that is our hill.
Since there are no new food pix happening, here's a photo from around my house...
