moominmolly: (empty eggs)
So, that whole month-long experiment led me to be wary of two things: wheat in quantity, and eggs at all. I've been fiddling with my intake of these two foods since the diet ended at the beginning of December, and I've found four things to be true:

* Egg yolks seem to make me feel sick, but egg whites do not.
* Wheat in moderation is okay, but if I have it at more than one meal in a day, my stomach feels tight and unpleasant.
* Diner food doesn't make me feel queasy, if I replace eggs with egg beaters and skip the toast and pancakes.
* I didn't realize how often I felt sick to my stomach, until it went away.

Now, let me add a fifth one to the list. My typical nervous reaction to various triggers is nausea, and perhaps vomiting. I keep my tension in my stomach, and I always figured that was why I got sick to my stomach in stressful situations. But no: no! That is gone. I've poked some pretty significant nausea triggers in the past few weeks, and not once have I thrown up, or even felt sick to my stomach for very long. This is -- I mean, this is phenomenal.

Goodbye, fried-egg-over-easy-on-wheat-toast! You are officially not worth the bother.
