And then the pain started. I had horrible abdominal cramping, dizziness, nausea, indigestion, and bloating.
I was doing the whole30 wrong and ended up with diverticulitis.
Why?
1) I have no gallbladder so I don't believe I digest foods as well as as before.
2) I really like nuts and fruit and salad.
3) I was not eating a balanced diet because of how busy our lives have been.
It's hot. I hate cooking in the heat. I think I ate salad with grilled chicken about 6 days in a row. And way melon is in season. So are strawberries. And blueberries. And raspberries. And cucumbers. All high residue, difficult to digest foods.
I was way of doing it on the fresh seedy fruit and difficult to digest greens. I ate very few cooked veggies and am paying for it. I am taking a break from whole30 and did a 24 hour juice fast too rest my gut. I am hoping Monday to resume whole30 with lots of cooked veggies and less residue foods.
