We cheered up Stuart

So the day after we started the diet we ran into Stuart and Kathy. Stuart has been told he is allergic to wheat and was looking very blue as his wife shopped for wheat-free foods. After we explained our diet to him, though, it cheered him right up.

The headache begins ...

The caffeine withdrawal headache.

Lisa and I are going to try green tea, since it's allowed, although we both think it tastes like fish. Bleah. Black tea is disallowed because it's fermented, and for now we are avoiding anything fermented or potentially "yeasty".

It Begins

Already, we feel like drug addicts going through withdrawl.

It didn't help that we overdid the sugar and treats last night. I couldn't get to sleep until 2 and Lisa woke up at 2 and didn't get back to sleep until 5.

AND we've had no caffeine!

But we did just have rotisserie chicken for dinner. We can hardly eat anything but we *can* have rotisserie chicken. We're probably going to get VERY sick of rotisserie chicken...
