Hey do you guys have dreams about eating food since you go on NSD? I have had a couple of dreams now about eating starch foods. The other night I dreamt that I accidentally ate a meat pie before remembering I wasn't supposed to eat it! Kind of annoying. Then I had another dream a week or 2 ago where I was watching others eat cakes and biscuits and I was going to eat it and then suddenly remember I couldnt! bah.

Anyhow I made those coconut flour soft chocolate chip biscuits. They do just nicely except I didnt' have enough chocolate chips so they are a little weak.

5 and a half weeks into NSD now. Things have been stable and the stiffness that was creeping in towards the afternoons doesn't come in anymore for last 2 weeks. My neck gets little spots of stiffness from time to time but nothing like it used to be and I'm sure a good massage will help that.

I feel things are stable enough that I can now introduce a few additional foods. This week I've introduced raw tomatoes and spanish onion back into my diet to spice up my salads. One at a time. So far no problems.

I went out to lunch last week and had Scallops wrapped in Bacon and washed down with a couple of glasses of Charddonay. Never felt better that afternoon. My whole body just relaxed. 0 pain. I'm going to try more scallops.

Yes, I've had bad dreams where I ate starchy things and then wanted to kick myself... why did I do that, and how much am I going to hurt?? Remember one in particular about french fries...

No dreams... but now that I am temporarily limiting sugar as well, cravings have increased a bit for foods on the no/no list.

I have had about 2 or 3 nightmares about eating starch, involving potatoes which were my favorite. In the dream I was indulging and eating them as if I forgot about my problem. Then immediately after eating the starch I remembered and I had this sickening feeling, worrying about how much pain I was going to be in. Eventually I woke up and realized how thankful I was that I only did that in my dream, haha!

Bacon wrapped scallops could be the cure! or bacon wrapped filet of beef or bacon wrapped jalapeno peppers with a good lager. Yeah baby!

. "those" coconut flour biscuits with chocolate chips? do tell

Glad your salad is better and that you remember your dreams,
Ike

UGH! I had another bad dream about eating starch. It was SO REAL too. I was seriously panicking in the dream because it felt so real. The culprit was fried potato wedges. I hope these don't become recurrent nightmares....haha
