Crazy Food Allergies
Options
I'm swollen today. Why? Because I ate 6 big fat pork ribs after being told it was beef, and gained 9 pounds of water weight overnight. Can barely fit in my uniform today!! Before you jump on me for not knowing the difference: it's been a long time since I had ribs and with that amazing spice and sauce who really knows what meat you’re eating.
Pork is a known problem for me. I retain anywhere from 8-15 pounds of water with pork.
Same thing happens with Splenda.
My face breaks out if I ingest too much red or blue dye.
I only eat shellfish if I have nothing planned that night b/c it will make me sleepy.
And one more: I get headaches with too much aspartame.
Lol. I'm just hosed when it comes to eating!! You think I’d be super thin for all the stuff I try to avoid.
Do you have any crazy food allergies?

I have celiac disease, so cannot have any gluten at all (for example, nothing with wheat). It sucks but I guess it forces me to choose healthy. After eating some bananas a few days ago I realized I might just be allergic to them, my throat got itchy, I had hives and had bad stomach pain. I love bananas :sad:0
