I thought I could go through date night with my little guy without going off the GAPS diet.
We went to see The Secret World of Arrietty. I did not have any popcorn. My guy ate the whole bag.
We then went to Whole Foods Market. I avoided all the samples. We decided to eat dinner there. He wanted pizza. I looked at the soups. Triple Squash Soup. Sounds okay. Let's read the ingredients. They went something like this: Acorn squash, Butternut squash, insert other squash here, salt, pepper, nutmeg, turbinado sugar. Darn. Well, I'm super hungry. A little won't hurt. I got the medium sized bowl. I ate about 1/4 of it, if that. Maybe about a 1/3 of a cup full I'd say.
The guy wants ice cream. Off to ColdStone Creamery. I was okay until I saw their new flavor - Lemon Cheesecake. I decided to get a sample - about a 1/2 tsp sized taste. I then moved on to order a kids' size, but please cut that in half. I wolfed down that 1/4 cup of Lemon Cheesecake goodness. Then I felt guilty.
I'm sure tomorrow I'll feel awful...if not later tonight.
I had 3 or 4 teaspoons of raw homemade yogurt today in my soups. I've been slightly gassy all night, beginning before the movies. I'm eating a bowl of soup now without the yogurt. I'm going to skip yogurt tomorrow and see how I feel.
Saving Grace? The next two date nights I'll be staying home because it's my husband's turn. Perhaps I should refrain from date night while on the intro diet, huh?
