I am sorry for suffering you've faced, but understand what you mean. I am a very different person, in so many ways, after All This.
Agreed suffering always changes us, sometimes not for the better. It has been the necessity of turning to Christ, there being no-one else to turn to that has changed my life.
I need to fully evaluate these dietary issues. Perhaps literally start all over. I"ve never done a really strict elimination diet. I am rather ad hoc.
I have never done a strict elimination diet or a rotation diet though have found improvement after fasting through illness.
In about a week, I'll be somewhere where I can regroup on my life.
That's great.
A strict elimination diet might not be best for you atm. I have tied quitting numerous things like dairy or even going raw vegan but it has been the grains that have made the most difference. Once I was nearly all grains ie macrobiotic!I lost weight a number of years ago, (advice to others- do that much sooner)...in my early 50s...I need to eat MORE calories.
