allergies

 Obviously no one is reading this, but it helps me remember things, so I'll write it down.


The allergy tests came back NEGATIVE for wheat and peanuts, and everything else except grass and weeds. I consulted with my allergist, and have been eating freely ever since! A good thing, too, as I never could get the sourdough to work like I did previously. I started shots again for the grass and weeds. SO, I might OUGHT to go gluten-free anyway, as I've been more tired and bloated and achy since then, but that may be because of the 20 pounds I gained once I started eating wheat, as much as because of the wheat itself. Either way, I'm trying to watch my calorie count now, and see what that does for me.

It's still a little weird to think about not being gluten-free anymore. But I'm getting used to it. Going out is much more fun this way.
