eating like the rest of the world now

I ate a lot of strawberries and celery sticks and loved every minute of it. I'm loosening up on this diet and eating like the rest of the world.

Seems to be OK so far. Also, gaining weight so fresh low cal foods are looking pretty good to me.

Wish me luck!

I DO wish you continued good health.

Celery is gross.

But normal eating is awesome. I had serious bean cravings once I got into remission.

Awesome...perfect time of the year for fresh strawberries.

Thanks for all your support.

Still not doing skins. It no longer makes sense to eat them. You wonder how they get digested. Still not doing dairy (can live without it) or citrus or acidic.

spicy, you can't help it sometimes. Folks say, oh it's not spicy, BUT IT IS!

Don't want to get constipated with new foods. It's a biggy for me.

Glad that the new foods are "going down well". :)

I took the plunge on fresh fruit and veggies (skins removed) because I've really plumped out on zyprexa (mood stabilizer) /prednisone (one or the other or both).

Can't fit into clothes... grrrhhh (with a sense of humor.) How big can one's stomach get?
