While I was on vacation,
I must have eaten something I hadn’t. I am not sure if it was some old home
fries, which I suspect or something from a buffet, which I equally
suspect. When I make meals, I know
exactly what ingredients go into the meal and how it is prepared. This is never
guaranteed when you eat out. Even when you think a food is made a certain way,
you still cannot be sure. We started our trip on Monday, by Tuesday late
morning my stomach ached as it did when I first started this venture towards
healing. It seemed as though I had erased 5 months of healing in just a day or
two. I had just started experimenting with introducing a small amount of potato
back into my diet. I had been adding just a small amount to my stir fries. That
seemed okay, but maybe the home fries were more than I could handle. Who knows? It certainly could have been something else taken from the buffet.
So to put aright
this reversal in healing, I found an Aloe Vera drink at the store. It seemed to
help. I have returned to my no grain, no nightshade diet in hopes of restoring
the healing that I have lost. This was definitely an important lesson for me. I
wish I could be sure of the catalyst for this stomach ache. I will have to
experiment further in the future.
Since I have
been avoiding irritants for several months now, I wonder if any reappearance of
an irritant creates an even stronger reaction than before. I liken it to those
who have partaken of large amounts of alcohol and build up a tolerance to it,
and then stop can have an increased reaction if alcohol is re-introduced.
Anyway.
I am back on track. I do feel a little bit better. I am travelling back of the
ladder to healing once again.
