Bloat... could it be the eggs... again?!

I'm jumping full in today!  Since this last 3/5 shift I have been really bloated.  Usually it's just with 3shift and the addition of carbs but it has migrated over into 5shift and I keep my carbs pretty darn low.

So what gives?  I was messaging my friend and told her maybe it's the eggs.  I only brought them back in October, but prior to that it had been 2 years or give or take.

My current state!

So my experiment is a NO EGG day.  It makes me sad but it's just one day, but to make sure I eat nothing with eggs in it!  Holy cats!  This should be a little tough.


Here is what my breakfast looks like this morning.


Coffee with HWC and collagen, avocado, chicken, cheddar and bacon.  All super yummy things (ignore dirty stove!!)  Sadly after this meal I didn't feel any different.  Still bloated.... my other thought is it could be avocado!!  Which I love just as much as my eggs!

I didn't take a picture of my lunch since it was more of a snack then anything.  It was 3 sausage links, cheddar and some mayo and an Oh Yeah One bar - Chocolate Chip (my fav!).  Yes, I know, mayo has eggs.... but I don't think the eggs are the issue.  My other thought is it could be dairy too.  N=1 in full effect until I figure this crazy thing out.  I think when I went off AltShift and just did keto it really threw my system for a loop.  Struggling to get my to a more happy place.

Dinner is from Kalyn's Kitchen.  Green chile chicken mock enchilada Casserole.  Looks SUPER good and it's something different!  I think there is a theme this week.  Mexican inspired - it was Taco Tuesday!  

I added cauliflower to this and a little mexican queso.  Super good and I feel fine after - well besides full!  Recently too I had given up nut butters for about 2 weeks.  Nothing changed there so I added it back in from time to time.  Daily nut butter is crazy and I love it, but trying to scale back!

Tomorrow the eggs are in and the avocado is out!
