Jordy, no, I didn't think you expected me to help you pick the right approach, I just meant that I don't know enough to even sort it out for myself . To be honest, most of the time I'm not "at peace" accepting GF, dairy free, EFI, and low sugar! Sometimes I really feel like it's too much and I need at least a little bit of my favorite foods! I have good days when I'm really determined, and I also have bad days, when I....well, fall off the wagon . So that's not the right way to go! I'm sure these shock waves are just really confusing for my body. So I think I need to play with my diet and perhaps select little things from these different groups. For example, even back when I was eating dairy, I remember feeling OK after having a little bit of cheese as a part of my meal but then I did get sick from a big ice cream sunday or a milkshake. It could have been the quantity (little cheese x huge shake), the fact that the cheese is fermented, or that cheese doesn't contain loads of sugar like the ice cream/milkshake. So I plan on experimenting in the future.
As of now I still do have C but that could be for many reasons. As of last week I ate pretty big amounts of chocolate, this week I had that cookie mishap...so yeah, I'm not as strict as I sound . Maybe (hopefully) C will go away once my body gets rid of all that "residue" from these unfortunate eating episodes .
Hawaii sounds great, maybe that really is all you need ;
