How many of you still eat wheat and nuts around your allergic child?
How hard is it to feel like dinner is not always on you every night?.....we haven't gone to a restaurant except chipolte in longer than I can remember. We are healthier because of this experience as I have lost five pounds recently. I think it's the lack of a lot of carbs in our diet.
How many of you buy everything organic? We do and because of it our grocery budget has gone from around $200/2weeks to almost $200-250/week! My husband feels it is okay because it's the best way to spend our money.
How many of you purchase processed foods? We do not buy more than I would say less than 2% now that we have to make everything we eat due to fears of cross contamination.
Those of you with allergies multiple ones that have had a complete life change like this....if you were told tomorrow that you were no longer allergic would you go back to eating out and ice cream stands and holidays with tons of candy and processed foods? I think that is the biggest lesson I've learned thus far is I wouldn't change it. I don't miss a lot of it. When you have a child with things that are like poison to them it's amazing how you can give up your favorite things sooooo fast!
Hope this brings up some discussions...alot of what has gone through my head lately
