I moved to rung 3 and decided to try peanut butter. It is not agreeing with me. I ate a can of macademia nuts, and the peanut butter with no sugar is giving me cravings.

Yesterday, I waited too long between breakfast and lunch (7 hours) because I was working the flu clinics and I was famished by the time I got back to the office. I went across the street and bought the tequila lime rub chicken quarters from Kinders and on the first bite it didn't taste "right" but I ate most of it anyway. (Probably some sugar in the rub) I also had my celery, cucumbers and cream cheese that I had brought. Drank some water.

By the time I got home, I was real hungry again and didn't have dinner ready so I ate some peanut butter, and the kids were making french fries and I ate some of those onion crisps that go on the salads. Only problem was there is flour on the onions. I kept eating them until I threw the package away and poured dishwashing detergent on top.

This morning I have a MIGRANE headache complete with light sensitivity. I got right back on program but I can't tell if it was the flour or the peanuts. Probably both. The onion crisps are just onion rings in a little flour and fried. Tasted good at the time but a month on no processed carbohydrates has changed my system. I need to respect that.

I have been reading on the forum and know that there are food allergies and I have one but I didn't respect it. I CAN'T EAT FLOUR. EVER. Even a little bit. Period.

    I have to wonder how many of us wound up here with food allergies as the main culprit yet undetected. I'm so glad you jumped right back on the WOE and chalked this up to experience.

    Thanks for sharing... That's really interesting about the flour. I know when I eat a something I have side effects too. The sad thing is that I'm not sure what it is though; since I eat more than one thing that I'm not supposed to! I need to figure out what it is. Hope you have a good weekend.

    Oh sweety, so sorry to hear that. But I guess its the body's way of reinforcing what its been trying to tell you. I have similar issues but not with wheat, with dairy, and I keep ignoring my body and eating it anyway and paying for it later. My excuse is that the women in my family all end up with horrible IBS and diverticulitis once they hit their late 40s so I'm trying to enjoy the bad foods while I can still stomach it. I know, not smart, but I'm 31, I still have some growing up to do
