Elimination Diet

pears are a good snack option. Just buy them and cut them up and put them in baggies for when your going to go out. Also, I didn’t do the free range turkey either. For my veggies I would put a little oil in the pain and cook them that way. Not sure if I was even supposed to use oil, but I did.

I also felt like I was going to starve, but it is worth it. good luck.

Dr. Sears Elim diet explanation is great. Laura’s link above has lots of great ideas, but might take a while to read. Not sure how you are doing this, but some things to eat:

Br. rice cooked in 1/2 water, 1/2 veggie stock with olive oil

steamed mild veggies– whatever Dr. sears mentions to begin with

Potatoes: I cut them into wedges, put olive oil, salt and pepper and bake at 400 for 30-40 mins (a whole cookie sheet)

hummus (the plain flavor, shold be chick peas (garbonzo beans), tahini, lemon and garlic as ingrediants and nothing you can’t pronounce

fruits that are approved

I did things a little backwards, but when trying to avoid dairy and soy I ate a lot of turkey/avacado and wheat bread sandwiches. And a lot of hummus and pickles (just to ahve a sharp flavor in my diet). After going gluten free we’ve had a lot of Gorilla Munch cereal, Amazon Flakes cereal, etc. If you are serious about the diet and it seems to help your lo, check into whether you have a relative or friend in an area with a good food market who could send you things. Or make a trip once a month and stock up. Where do you live? Before going gluten free I also ate a lot of Kashi oatmeal with flax meal on top. It was delicious! Once you can add back in eggs, I did a lot of eggs and spinach sauteed in olive oil. I just used olive oil to cook absolutely everything.

That should give you some ideas. Laura’s link really has the whole Kit-N-Kaboddle from all of us. Just eat until you aren’t hungry and you’ll find eventually there are things to eat. It just may be very different from what you are used to eating. HANG IN THERE!
