I was feeling fine yesterday. I ate my normal breakfast and lunch was my shake and an RxBar. The RxBar was the Maple Sea Salt and tasted so good.
Not huge on sugar and I know cashews are okay. Pecans? Maybe the problem? Egg whites (doubtful) Like I said I was feeling fine all day and I was hungry around 3:30 and couldn't wait to get home. Once I got through the door I ate 2 pieces of goose liver pate, which I ate yesterday too without any problem. Dinner was what I had below. 2 eggs and 2 pieces of bacon and 3 cassava flour pancakes topped with coconut/peanut butter mix. That's when I felt sick to my stomach!
Tasty dinner! I love Thursday's! |
So, how do I know it wasn't dinner that bothered me? I have always been able to pin point what bothered my stomach other times. It's always the meal I had prior and it doesn't happen until after I eat my next meal. I ended going to bed early. I still took my supplements and even had some heartburn too. I found it woke me in the middle of the night and I couldn't really go back to sleep either and I had a hard time falling asleep.
I still have a little heartburn and my stomach was a little off when I got out of bed. My brain feels a little on the foggy side. I felt good enough to go the gym and lift and run without an issue. I was still able to have breakfast - but felt gassy afterwards. I drank dandelion tea and had an extra activated charcoal.
So how am I going to move forward? Well it's all experimental. I have limited my nut consumption anyway. So maybe if it's just for Thursday nights. I have a peanut butter RxBar to try next, so will see how I react to that one too, but not for a few days. I haven't gone overboard (more than 3 days) with anything else. Maybe it was just an overload of things on one day that I have more of a reaction too when I consume them too much- eggs, cassava flour, nuts, coffee. I had been curious about it.
I think this is one of the times that nothing can be done but waiting it out and maybe being a little more mindful.
