It's My Party and I'll....

Eat if I Want To!!!  :-)

My birthday was this past Saturday.  I had a wonderful time at Safari's Animal Sanctuary in Broken Arrow, Ok. By the time we were finished, we were all starving!!  So my dear friends, Jessica and Adam took my husband and I out to eat at El Tequila.  YUM!  And after all, it WAS my birthday!  So I ordered what I wanted, which included 3 corn tortillas and lots of cheese.  This was not a planned meal, but I was cool with it.

Later that night, my hubby took me to Marble Slab Creamery.  YUMMMM-MEEEEE!  :-)

My original plan for my birthday was to have a DQ MiniCake on Saturday and then on Sunday while at a BBQ with my Book Club, I was going to eat whatever I wanted.  Well, I still chose to eat whatever I wanted at the BBQ.  I ate:

• Pasta Salad
• Potato Salad
• Brownies
• Baked Beans
• Pita Chips
• Hot Dogs

You know what?  I didn't really enjoy any of it.  Can you believe that?!  I can't!  I absolutely enjoyed the Mexican and the ice cream the day before, but none of the other stuff on Sunday was delicious.  A few hours after the BBQ, I started belching (this is something I've been dealing with off and on for over a year now).  I belched the rest of the day until I finally went to bed around midnight--not so fun!

That night I looked at Suresh and said, "I am actually happy to be getting back to my eating plan tomorrow."  

WHAT?!

Who am I and what have I done with the real ME?!

Actually, I think I like this new me.  Because today, after all those carbs....I am TIRED!

I have never wanted to hear it when I was told that I was probably gluten sensitive and/or intolerant.  Yet I believe it is likely the truth.  At least now I know.  I can't deny it anymore.

But I am eating differently and I am okay with that. So I can be okay with this too.

Love and Light to All.
