Sometimes I want to scream, cry and cave in. A beat-candida diet coupled with gluten and dairy free is HARD GOING at times.
I had a moment with a chocolate bar this week that nearly got me, but a quick slam shut of the cupboard door and cup of spicy tea with a biscotti saved me.
For me, having something yummy, but diet appropriate, around really helps. A wee treat to turn to when others are indulging in the sugar laden western diet world.
My latest...
A sugary piece; white bread spread with marg or butter then liberally sprinkled with sugar.
A sugar cube stuck in the top of an orange and sook
A wee bowl of sugar and a stalk of rhubarb.
Sugar on my already sweetened cereal.
Sticky buns for the corner bakery.
My love affair with sugar began early and continues though it’s more of a torrid romance now in need of ending rather than something to swoon about.

From November last year I stuck rigidly to the dietary suggestions of my Nutritionist, namely, no gluten, dairy, sugar, dried fruit (except for apricots occasionally), no honey, molasses, maple syrup or any other sweetener I could think of, oh and no eggs as I tested intolerant.
My personality traits, as fore-mentioned ensured I stayed on...
Greek yogurt and honey……………. oh er um and a nibble of Anya’s home made chocolate chip cookie, a few spoonfuls of Ash’s banana toffee pie and er a spoonful of the sticky date pudding too!
Honestly who could resist the greek yogurt, it’s delicious, especially dripping with local honey.
And the consequences are…………..
Actually nothing in particular, a little bloating, wee bit windy but...
My feeling positve and inspired faded this morning; I have just surface from a big sob.
The last few days have been restful and peaceful, or so I thought. It’s been raining so I’ve been doing lots of reading, relaxation,meditations and a little yoga too.
The only niggle has been my digestion. A few days ago I went out for lunch and ordered tuna salad which I thought would be safe….not so it came smothered in mayonnaise ( I’m...
Gluten and sugar free biscotti, yum!
