What I’m eating today

This is all I can manage to eat today for some reason. I feel extremely bloated and just want plain flavors. Plus, I’m so low energy today so this is what I can muster up. Simple rice and smoked salmon.
I can’t wait to get some energy back! I have so many things I want to do. Today I scheduled an appointment with a gastroentologist. I really feel like I am developing a food allergy because I am constantly dealing with digestive issues. I have been for years and I think pregnancy is exacerbating it. It makes it especially hard being pregnant because I really don’t feel like I can eat much and have to limit my diet to avoid stomach pain but I know I need to be eating more. So far it seems like everything I eat is bothering me. Even fruit and veggies are causing extreme bloating and pain. I just want to get to the bottom of it because it’s been going on for years so hopefully I will be able to get some tests done soon. Other than embarrassing digestive issues, it was a good weekend. Here is a belly shot. It’s getting bigger and I’m not sure if it’s just bloating or what. Seems way to soon to show this much. I wonder if anyone else has experienced showing this soon?

It’s kind of like being on a rainbow while dropping spoonfuls of creamy, cheesy clouds into your mouth. The fresh sweet peas really make this dish stand out... Continue reading

We are all familiar with mayo. We know it’s unhealthy and grocery store brands are packed with some pretty gross ingredients including corn syrup and hydrogenated oils. In fact, homemade mayo only contains a few ingredients so why add all those nasty things? Oh wait, shelf life. We need products to last for 8 years... Continue reading
