Making progress. Kind of.
I’ve been super busy with projects at home and with my kids, but I’ve been slowly incorporating Wahl’s principles into our diet. I’m hoping to be full-Wahl’s (sort of) sometime in May. I’m tweaking a few things I don’t like because—well—I can’t ever just do what someone tells me to. 😂 I have concerns about the amount of greens for my low-thyroid kid, because greens and cruciferous veggies can make low thyroid worse. I’ve read a lot about it, and I’m planning on talking to a nutritionist who can advise on this issue. I will be doing a full elimination diet, but if no one reacts upon reintroducing dairy and eggs, I will re-add those to our diet. Eggs are kind of an option on Wahl’s, but dairy is not. If I do re-add dairy it will be grass-fed only and small amounts, because—butter and cheese, y’all. Dairy is permitted on most other Paleo plans. A big hurdle I’ve been dealing with is the kids’ reaction to the diet. I get it. I have feelings about it...
