  • For me, 1. the battle is won at the store. If you hurt getting to the store is more than likely beyond your / my ability, so, what's in the house is the only thing available.

Food allergies, or fructose intolerance could cause the symptoms you mentioned. Both difficult to diagnose. One must do an elimination diet to discover it that would be the case. That's…
    in Indecisive, What Would You Do? Comment by SunVegan8 March 2014
