Greek Yogurt!!

I was worried that being lactose intolerant, I couldn't have my Greek yogurt anymore. However, according to this website and others I have looked at, Greek yogurt contains half of the lactose that regular yogurt contains, making it safer for me to eat. This also explains why when I usually eat Greek yogurt, it doesn't hurt my stomach. Lactose intolerant people can sometimes handle small doses of lactose.

Greek Yogurt for Lactose Intolerant People

Total Twist

I had some testing done at the doctors and I have been diagnosed with IBS, which is irritable bowel syndrome. Due to my clearly irritable stomach, I decided to go gluten and dairy free. I've had such a rough time with it lately because an adjustment so big is hard!

Revived From the Dead

I'm alive. After Spring Break I was hospitalized for a GI bleed. Everything ended up being okay but now I am on a special diet. No gluten or lactose for me. This could be good but a hard adjustment. Stay tuned for many food posts.
