So I went ahead and moved up to rung 2 of OWL today. I ate 1/2 cup of cottage cheese, with my lunch (4oz pork, 2 cups salad). About one hour later I got the runs really badly. A while ago now, I was at my dads for dinner and they had a fruit platter out. I had 3 or 4 strawberries (though I wasn't on the berry rung, I did count the carbs in them to make sure I didn't go over my limit for that day)....anyway, after that I had really bad stomach cramps and felt as if I was going to have the runs. It seems every time I add back a food, it severely upsets my stomach. Is this normal? If it is, it sucks!

Re: Uh oh
You seem to notice on OWL that your body has intolerances to some food, i've just found that im allergic to strawberries, its not fun!!
However when i spoke to my doctor about it he said if you add the things very gradually, leave it a few days before you try again your body can learn to accept them. If it doesnt change, then you may of found one of your intolerances!HW 303Aug '04 SW-287 LW-232Restart - Apr 07 - SW 266 CW 225

Re: Uh oh
Yeah, I'm going to wait 2 more days to try cottage cheese again (since I'm off again in 2 days, wouldn't want this to happen at work!). Next week I was going to try yogurt and see how that goes.26/F/5'9.5

Re: Uh oh
I had a similar reaction to yogurt--I ate it and got an upset stomach and intestinal gurgling. Nothing painful, just embarassing. The second time I ate it, I had the same thing, but to a lesser effect. The third time I ate it, I was fine.
If a food causes intense pain, I will try it only once more (or depending on the pain, never again) and if it hurts again, I don't eat it in the future.START 8/16/06 @ 270+~MG1: 220-12/2/06~MG2: 210-1/07~MG3: 199-3/2/07~MG4: 190-4/27/07~MG5: 180-7/04/07~GOAL: 170
