I am headed to Vegas!!!
I am going to celebrate my friends bachelorette party… I know, crazy right? I had to go, because seriously, when else would I ever do something like this. I am super excited, I have never been to Vegas. I can’t wait to see what it holds for me!
There is one issue.
I am having serious stomach issues. I have always thought I have a food allergy because I constantly have stomach aches and discomfort. I never seem to do anything about it, but now [in this much pain] I think I am at the point where I need figure it out.
I am sitting on the plane right now in so much pain and discomfort. My stomach is super bloated, I’m gassy and in pain.
I am not sure why my stomach hurts do bad, but it’s been happening all week. Around mid afternoon, everyday this week my stomach had started to cramp up and bloat. At first I thought it might be because I am eating more veggies, and that can cause some bloating initially. But I am not eating that many veggies.
I always thought my stomach issues were because I was lactose intolerant but it’s not diary cause I haven’t had any all week. [I started eating Ezekiel bread and Tribe hummus, but could I really be that? Maybe the Ezekiel....]
Here’s what I ate today:
B: Ezekiel bread, eggs, lettuce
S: cashews
L: PB&J on whole wheat bread
S: hummus with broccoli, carrots, green beans
D: subway veggie sandwich on wholewheat bread
After my Subway sandwich my stomach really started to hurt. I hate to admit it, but if you look at all my meals the constant thing is bread! I ate bread at every meal. Could gluten be causing my stomach pain?! If it is I will be so upset. I love bread and all things gluten! But I am so uncomfortable and sick of putting myself in pain so I need to figure this out. Right now, I am on the plane headed to what can only be expected to be an amazing weekend and I am squirming in my seat in pain. Hopefully I will feel better soon. My plan is to suck it up this weekend but try to avoid gluten (beer too? Ughhhh -[although if it is gluten it would explain why my stomach kills the entire next day after drinking... Gluten is in beer, duh!] Anyway,I’m gonna try to avoid gluten this weekend and then I will evaluate and assess the situation early next week.
In the mean time, I am going to enjoy my first ever weekend in Vegas! Yeaaa baby!
