Guest guest Posted February 19, 2008 Report Share Posted February 19, 2008 Hi , it seems like I'm doing nothing but watch what I eat. I've been gluten free for a few months now and did ALCAT food sensitivity testing and found out that I shouldn't be eating almost anything else that I have ever eaten. I'm supposed to be staying away from caseins and goitrogens too. I'm eating a lot of egg whites, rice protein, hemp protein, turkey, coconut oil, quinoa, fruit and vegetables, and trying to eat more fish despite a life-time distaste for it. I literally hate eating now and it shows b/c I've lost 18 pounds without wanting or trying to. I know that weight loss is a major issue for many here and I don't mean to minimize it, but I've lost twice as much weight as I needed to and I don't know how to stop it because despite hating to eat now, I'm making myself do it 5-6 times/day and I'm eating more balanced than I ever have in my life. Almonds were one of those high protein foods that aren't goitrogens, aren't on my " sensitive " list and don't upset my stomach when I eat them but I guess that I need to look at pumpkin seeds instead which I will next visit to the health food store. With re: to foods yesterday, I let myself have a decaf latte for the first time in weeks (used to be one of the things that I enjoyed) and chose what I thought was the lesser of two evils - goitrogen instead of casein - soy milk instead of cow. That might have done it for me I I guess. Other than that I ate pretty much as I have to. > > , > > Are you keeping track of what you are eating?
