How's this for a pity party?

[LBTC]

I don't really know your health issues... but you ate right and made a good decision. And in the end.. it's only food. Right?

Can you still eat desserts?

Crohn's disease and still trying to find the right balance of meds, food and exercises. According to naturopath: no wheat, buckwheat, oats, dairy, yeast, corn, onions, tomatoes, avocado, cane sugar, alcohol, peanuts or coconut.

I am sure he is right about dairy, onions and oats, quite sure on the wheat, and have not tested the peanuts or avocado yet. I have allowed small amounts of yeats and sugar (I aim for beet sugar, if that can't be had, then organic cane syrup in my sweets), coconut and tomato. I am trying even smaller amounts of corn occasionally too.

So, desserts in a restaurant are out, unless it's a the health kitchen that has spelt, rice and stevia sweets. But I have my sweets options, and keep them readily available. It was more the moment itself than the food - the salmon and asparagus were yummy. The moment sucked.

Accupuncture next week - I can not wait!!!!

Hugs & butterflies,

(((LBTC)))) I'm so sorry about the Crohn's. You did the right thing. I'm lucky that I only have IBS and Diverticulosis, I don't have to give up everything, but I do miss corn and nuts especially cashews.. You have the right to express your disappointment in having to eat "plain" food.If I were in your situation, I would have had to go hungry. I don't like salmon or asparagus even with anything ON it...
Sorry to just be getting to this, I've been without computer for a few days when my moniter croaked.
