Summary of the morning…

>> College work
>> Health research

Know what I haven’t been looking into as far as my health issues? THE FACT THAT I HAD MY GALLBLADDER TAKEN OUT IN LATE 2009 and how that might be affecting my health! I remember my surgeon telling me I might have digestive issues afterwards but after I had the surgery, I didn’t notice any symptoms so I just continued on! Then the reallll bad stuff started late April 2010. STILL having digestive mess up now. The more OBVIOUS answer seeing as I DON’T HAVE THAT GALLBLADDER is that my liver is sluggish because it’s overworking and there isn’t enough bile flowing into my small interestines to help digest fats and absorb certain nutrients. I might have felt so AWESOME in early 2010 because my liver had enough bile stored to help me feel that awesome then it “ran out or ran low” and there was no gallbladder to store the bile… crash and burn! Atleast that’s my take on it. Here is my “trial treatment” combo…

Liver detox tea and bile acid capsules! Umm the capsules weren’t cheap so we’ll see how they “work or don’t work” on my system and go from there.

I had a late lunch of BROWN RICE, sauteed tomato and cucumber plus some greek feta dressing. It was good… until a bit later then I felt HORRIBLE. The only thing that I can think of is the FAT in the dressing that made me feel horrible because umm everything else was fine! The brown rice is easy to digest and the tomato/cucumber was fully cooked. I deffo think it is fats that make me feel terrible. Thinking back earlier this week, I had a protein meal with yogurt, almond butter and soaked almonds and a little bit after I ate that, I felt “horrible” TOO! I thought it was “detox” symptoms but I think it was from my body not being able to break down the fats!!!

After Brad came home, we took Katie to Moms then headed off for shopping!! I honestly didn’t have enough ingredients to pre-make my dinner to take with me so I decided to try to find something at Whole Foods to eat for dinner like Brad usually does. He got more SUSHI to eat and I had bought some cinnamon raisin bagels and new almond butter so I had 2 pieces of his sushi plus a bagel and a little almond butter… which breaks all my rules of food combos but I figured I’d give it a try with taking my digestive enzymes PLUS the bile acid capsules. It has deffo made me feel different… I kindof feel like I do when I have running side pains? Not sure what that means in terms of all my health mess.

I just drank some of the liver support tea! It was good… now I’m getting tired. We’re off tomorrow to try to get our car re-aligned. Not sure if Moms gonna watch Katie or not, will find out in the morning. OH OH and…. WE GOT OUR A/C FIXED! Woot woot.

I leave you with my new fruit and sweet potato pile I made this evening from shopping goodies!

You know you love my super stacking skills !!!
