Day 2 - Dairy free

ok, already i feel a difference. could be psychological. i don't think so though. the puffiness in my face (especially around the eyes) is already subsiding. and my thinking is not as fuzzy as usual. i've been told it takes 7 days to clear the effects of dairy from one's system. so, i should be feeling pretty damn good by then.

a few passing thoughts of cheese. slight feelings of unfairness, "others can eat cheese, why can't i" feelings. no real cravings yet, but i am being very liberal in my diet otherwise to help myself feel less deprived. once i get over the dairy cravings, then i will tackle gluten.

it is amazing, though, how much junk food has dairy in it. my diet is already vastly improved for that reason alone! *chuckle*
