It is a pretty well known fact
that I have endometriosis and poly cystic ovarian syndrome.
(I know, lucky me, right?)
After I had a major surgery for it almost 5 years ago,
I joined an endometriosis society
so that I could stay on top of the latest and greatest.
And although there are a few weirdos involved,
and they did try to sell me a tote bag
that said "I have endo!" on it,
(Where is it ever OK to carry that around?)
I have gained a lot of useful info from them.
Because I have had a few "endo episodes" the last few months,
I decided last week to start a special diet that had been
recommended to me.
And let me tell you ...
I can only have 15 g of sugar a day.
When you really start looking at all your food
you realize that EVERYTHING has sugar.
Even my daily vitamin has 5g of sugar!
Needless to say it has been hard to find things to eat.
But I have been finding my groove,
and it actually hasn't been that bad.
Until in a cruel twist of fate...
these arrived on my doorstep.
How dare they?!?
They are taunting me from the top of the fridge!
But don't worry.
I am winning the battle.
