I’m Baaaaaccckkkk
On my two month blogging hiatus I learned a few things on my quest to live an eggless and dairy-free life, the first being that eggs and dairy have magic powers that make me forget that I am not supposed to be eating them. I found myself saying things like, “It will be okay if I have just a little (insert tempting treat here), I am not going to die or anything”’ or “It’s Christmas, it doesn’t count” or “It’s my wedding day, I am going to have some cake!” Well I was wrong, it does count and my broken out face, tummy aches and sleepless nights are proof… maybe this food allergy thing is legit.
It is now a new year, my wedding is over and it is now time to fully commit to cutting eggs and dairy out of my diet completely for a full THREE months. Up until now I have still been cheating every so often and allowing myself a little cheese or sneaking a treat that was made with eggs, but that all stops now. I really hope to feel a million times better and maybe even lose a pound or two to make this all worth it! When my three months are up, my doctor and I will reevaluate my health and see if it may be possible to reintroduce eggs and dairy (as I attempt to cross my fingers while typing this) to my diet. I promise to update this more often and share some new recipes I have discovered on the journey through my new eggless life (for real this time!)
