I forgot to update about my appointment I had on Wednesday morning.
It went well. It's all still very overwhelming. I did find out it is a pretty serious allergy to it all. It would take at least 3 days and probably more like a week for me to feel better after ingesting a little of what I am supposed to stay away from. So this means I really, really shouldn't have my once a year corny dog at the state fair. I am so bummed. Maybe I won't even go. Eh, we'll see. I just get frustrated sometimes.
I also found out I have to watch out for all of this stuff in my cosmetics and skin products. Do you know how hard it is to find conditioner without wheat or soy in it? Much harder than I expected. I was on the brink of tears yesterday trying to find something at Whole Foods. I finally found that their own brand of shampoo and conditioner was free of allergens. The lavender kind anyway.
Next came makeup. I had a cranky toddler with me, so I grabbed some stuff I thought would work. I took it all back today. I finally found a brand that worked and didn't cost me an arm and a leg (cheaper than my drug store purchases!): Rejuva Minerals. The only downfall is that it isn't sold in stores, so I am sort of guessing on the colors. They recommend that you get this sampler where you pick 3 trial size foundations so I did my best at guessing.
As far as most thing's go, I am having the most issues with soy. I wish I wasn't allergic to soy. It's in absolutely flippin' everything. I love Asian food.
I found some great things on Amazon. I sort of went a little crazy finding thing's yesterday. Poor Brent. I am usually pretty good about not spending a penny, but at least it is in the grocery category. It's just in bulk, so eh.
I am beginning to note a difference. I feel a little more "with it". I am already even losing weight. So I can do this!
