Have one cheat day if the repercussions aren't too terrible (says the crazy woman who repeatedly eats noodles she's intolerant to).
Is it very bad when you stray off your restrictions? Do you feel it right away or can you get away with tiny things as long as it's not a full diet of gluten, diary and sugar?
Hehe definitely not a chef. I just love to eat. I'm also incredibly temperamental and when I want something, I want it that day. Over the years I've had to learn all sorts of dishes to appease my cravings.
For example right now I've got coffee choc chip chiffon cakes in the freezer. That's because on any given day I might decide I want a mini tiramisu cake. Too much trouble to bake a cake and frost it so I give myself a head start with the cake base already made (usually at night after dinner I do my basic cooking prep). If I wanted it tomorrow I'll just take out the mascarpone, cream, coffee liquor and assemble!
Haha it is a life very much driven by food!!!
You're intolerant to noodles?I hope it's not the Vietnamese rice noodles?!
I am not badly allergic to them, as in I wouldn't need emergency care. But long term, those things are no good to me bc they cause inflammation in my body, which in turn cause joint pain amongst other things. In particular, dairy clogs up my sinus, gluten makes me..ahem..."irregular". I am also alcohol and caffeine free. I know I know, virtually anything fun or yummy is out of the q for me! It's weird bc I used to consume all these all the time, at any amounts and I'd have no reaction whatsoever. So to answer yr Q, I could consume a small amount but then I'd suffer for days afterwards.
I absolutely love love love food, like you. Unfortunately for me now, I can't just eat anything I want.
Tiramisu used to be one of my go-to desserts when dining out too.
