Day 3 adding back dairy & I'm irrationally excited about having cottage cheese today -- just have to remember to eat it mindfully (right, Angel?)! Felt a little stomach discontent after yesterday's serving of Greek yogurt, but nothing like after Monday's 2 servings of milk. Will report my findings after today & consult with health coach on results before any final conclusions. Although its really not been tough eating dairy free (except for missing cottage cheese & other soft cheeses on my salads), I can't imagine staying completely off dairy either. Given my rather minor discomforts while having dairy again, I'm guessing that having it in limited amounts might be just fine, but as a scientist, I know I shouldn't jump to conclusions until finishing all the research:)!
I've started reading about about mindful eating (thanks, Bella), and am finding it very helpful, especially since I dont really cook, eat out a bit & travel more now that I'm an empty nester. I'm away again this weekend from Fri - Tues spending 2 nights with my MIL & 2 SILs, then traveling to visit a friend & her mom with my MIL (both moms are recently widowed). Will be in Atlanta, then Fl, so should have some better weather again. And, plan to practice eating mindfully while away, since I might not have control over every meal choice. But not fretting about it as I'll start my days then as I have been, praying the Serenity Prayer, and taking it one day, meal, bite, moment & emotion at a time. Xoxox
