    My journey to getting well

    I stopped my one glass of wine today, and I'm feeling better. Don't know if that is the answer for why I'm doing better but alcohol is tough on my digestive system. Maybe it is to hard. I'll keep avoiding. I was well using the bathroom today. that's always good. I also avoided some...

    My journey to getting well

    I'm doing well in some senses, and yet i'm still somewhat out of it and feel weak. Well, I do seem to be going in the right direction. i was going to fast today but being slightly weak had me rethink that. tomorrow will likely be better. Healing is likely a slow process. No or very little...

    My journey to getting well

    It is a good morning. The inflammation, and sore aching ear is gone. The left side of my face is not inflamed. I feel decent. I'm not overly energetic but I'm doing alright. I still remain eating lots of spices, free of nightshade. Tongue is not perfect but getting close. Appearance is...

    My journey to getting well

    Forgot to note down, the ear ache in the left ear is gone. There remains some mild inflammation around the ear but imagine it will be gone soon. I can only imagine that eating those potatoes over a week ago caused this.

    My journey to getting well

    I had periods today were I felt weak and worn out. But I have also had periods where I felt good and energetic. That is rare. Appearance has further changed. I appear healthier this evening. So all id good, overall, with how I hoped this to go. I don't imagine I'll be eating nightshade...

    My journey to getting well

    The ear ache is nearly gone. It only aches in the left ear. It is so similar to what i experience when eating pork. There might be a connection, might not but it certainly makes me wonder. last night I read about a concern researchers from Cornell University had with the toxin solanine...

    My journey to getting well

    Had some very nice energy there for awhile so the worst seems to be over. Inflammation seems to be gone. Ear ache is every still there. It doesn't hurt all that much and imagine it will be gone within a day or two. My guesses on these things are not that great though.

    My journey to getting well

    Today has been a good day. Energy levels has been higher than typical. The ear ache and the inflammation i experienced is similar to what I experience when I eat pork. Chicken and eggs causes a similar issue but to a lesser extent. It does have me further thinking that farm animals fed...

    My journey to getting well

    I'm feeling much better today. At the moment no feeling of being out of it. I'm feeling quite good. It was likely the workouts that did me in, along with only be a little over a week with avoiding the nightshade family/potatoes, tomatoes, red peppers. I'm also avoiding all meats. I'm only...

    My journey to getting well

    Oh good, I'm doing better this morning though I'm still a bit out of it. The more I rest from exercise the better I suspect. Looking good and healthy. Nice to see that. I have a very slight ear ache. That has been going on for a few days. Not painful but I notice it. Maybe I'm going...

    My journey to getting well

    I think what it is that has me a bit out of it. It is a good thing maybe. I did a difficult workout the other day. the good part is I'm not feeling sore. Typically I'd be feeling sore after such a workout and these workouts can make me feeling slightly out of it. That must be it. Avoiding...

    My journey to getting well

    A rather dull day today. Being a bit out of it had me hanging out on the computer joking around for the day. Hopefully tomorrow will be better and more productive. A very good sign I noticed is that i'm talking really well. It is encouraging. Not entirely sure what the problem is but it...

    My journey to getting well

    I'm quite pleased about the inflammation that I can remember. It would happen from time to time, and all to often go hand in hand with a stomach flare. I think there is a good chance that potatoes and nightshade are responsible for that. On the negative I've been tired, worn out, more so...

    My journey to getting well

    This is a big notice I made last night. About a week ago I experienced some inflammation. It can be a bit painful but nothing terrible. It happens from time to time. Since avoiding potatoes from one week ago that inflammation has gone away. There is no sign of it. Don't know why I hadn't...

    My journey to getting well

    Doing quite well today though I am fasting. Energy levels are good. Stomach is good. Well, this will be a good test. Nightshade is out of my diet for good. At least I think so. the left foot feels good and strong. Weight is 173lbs. that was nice to see. If avoiding nightshade family...

    My journey to getting well

    I'm feeling pretty good about avoiding nightshade family and sticking with the fish diet long term - 3 to 4 months. Yesterday I was feeling weak and a bit in a daze for awhile. this morning I'm doing better. Maybe what caused the weakness was drinking 2 glasses of pineapple juice which is...

    My journey to getting well

    I ate some of that nightshade free sauce with lunch. So far so good. Hope round two goes better. I pushed back my next dental appointment till the middle of April. That should help with the nerves. Skin looks good. I was feeling a bit weak and worn down today. Not entirely sure why.

    My journey to getting well

    It got a little colder than expexted last night, leaving me with a slight upset stomach. I think I'll be well later for my dental appointment though. At least I hope so. Tongue looks great. Skin looks good. Energy levels could be better but isn't bad either.

    My journey to getting well

    Im doing quite well this morning. Energy levels are high. Strength is ok. Muscles are a touch sore. appearance healthy. tongue looks good. Overall it is a good morning. I'll continue to avoid the nightshade family and only eat fish. I suspect that if I become well on this diet, which I...
