I’m finding a pretty good selecion of foods to enjoy on my elimination diet. A typical day goes something like this….

Breakfast—a slice of banana nut bread (made from the approved Institute of Functional Medicine recipe file) topped with almond butter and green grapes (the healthy version of pb&j). A mug of decaf green tea.

Snack time —a mix of almonds, pistachios, raisins and cherries.

Lunch—organic turkey on a slice of rice bread, topped with home made salsa, onions and eggplant hummus. Some rice crackers for added crunch.

Snack time (again!!! yes I am eating like a horse!!) an organic “pecan pie” square and some grapes. Cup of decaf green tea.

Dinner brought a big bowl of hearty chicken with rice soup with strawberries for dessert.

Bedtime snack (hey…a girl’s gotta live ya know!) a handful of vegetable chips.

All of this was supplemented with a half gallon of water sipped throughout the day and a multi-vitamin, vit c, calcium, fish oil and flaxseed vitamins taken twice daily.

I don’t know how the above menu may read to anyone, but truly…as a woman who worships at the altar of chocolate, ice cream and red wine, I really did enjoy this food ….and I am satisfied, not craving for a thing…..who knew??????
