January Update

Still got a few issues lingering from that glutening issue...onions are still off the menu...as are spices. SO my mexican rotation of cuisine is put off and sticking to Italian herbs and keeping it easy. I have learned a few new things diet wise. The whole "what floats on top of my stomach will be puked up later" concept has been applied with a new testing and setting method for my foods. Works like this I put the food ingredient in a bowl of water...if it floats I need to make it sink before i eat it. This involves soaking nuts/seed meals/flour, and certain other foods 4-6 hours before a meal. Leafy greens seem to sink if nuked in the microwave to mush making them easier. NOW this did have a interesting find...animal fats are still a NO cause of the enzyme/floating effects with my system. BUT certain plant fats like cocoa nibs seem to cause a odd film to form...it breaks down with enzymes quickly I tested in a bowl and seems to disperse/sink. SO I moved it up and always consume my cocoa nibs before a meal with enzymes now and the puking has become less common. I have previously noted it was present with over consumption of cocoa nibs occurred after a meal.

I have discovered a wonderful flavor company that makes artificial flavor drops for food/beverage/vaping. Very low to no alcohol in most flavors, no additives/thickeners, and very concentrated. About 1-1.5 drops to a oz of liquid. I used the biscuit on in my keto roll recipe .....OMFG it tasted like those Pillsbury rolls with the butter in them we used to have for breakfast every saturday growing up OMG, I love it with some cinnamon or sugar free grape jam...SOOO reminds of my childhood with my family....texture is lacking that layered fluffiness but the flavor is dead on.   The Cereal one taste like corn flakes,,,add a sweetener for frosted flakes...SOOO nostalgic, I love using it in coffee or almond milk...also great in porridge like someone used the left over milk from the cereal in the food.  The cinnamon danish one taste like those bear claws from the gas stations, the rectangle pastry with the lines on top and a filling them, Mix with either the vanilla custard, apple pie, or lemon meringue etc. for a filled pastry...SOOO much fun in smoothies and porridge.

I have a upcoming chiropractor appointment again to fix the curve in my back and check on my osteoporosis in my neck. I went ahead and booked a hotel for a night up there since it is a 100+ mile round trip. Figured I would stay up there and have some fun shopping for a day (window shopping).

I keep  getting more and more concerned about my mother (adoptive) perhaps having this disease so many symptoms but she refuses to get tested.

I recently have been taking care of my cousins daughters more....OMG I feel like my grandmother on my father side must have, that perfect home, odd diet, and not really set up to entertain kids....I am trying to cater to them to the best I can but their taste change daily....and the dumb father normally feeds them instant meals, and prepackaged snacks...SOO they are spoiled and extremely picky. -_- The stuff they do like is like insane expensive, Pro Granola, Kale Chips, gluten-free muffins, gluten-free cookies...the nut based expensive ones. I am billing him for the food....I have a itemized list and they have consumed over $54 in food in 10 day...this is a 8 and a 10 year old.

I'd hate to tell you how much it costs to feed my 3 teenage boys. But I sure wish it was that cheap!

good luck with your back. I drive 100+ miles every day and it sure isn't helping mine. Mine hurts more every day. I'm now sure all the pt they had me do this summer, that I've been doing for months now, isn't helping a bit.  Although now I think I've google identified it as psoas syndrome. Fits in with the groin hurting, not being able to stand fully, very shortened strides. 

Enjoy your time with the little ones! Teach them to cook!

ONE other update and interesting test. I had considered that I might have a lectin intolerance or a histamine issue. I tested this out by finding a high lectin low histamine food like sunflower seeds grinding into a butter in my stone mill and trying to eat it in large amounts for a few days.....less of my violent reactions I expected. In fact it sat VERY well with me. NOW I also lowered my egg white content in combination with high histamine foods when doing this, Egg whites act as a histamine liberator and yeah...they do make reactions worse in combination with foods that are high histamine...... Seems my issue WAS a histamine food issue not lectins, SO I just have to avoid eating high histamine foods with egg whites and avoid certain combinations and I am fine....PS I also learned I still have a issue with sesame seeds -_- NOT as bad as it used to be BUT watery eyes, drainage, coughing, tightening of the throat.....yep that allergy came back it seems.
