18 Sept. 2019 - Diet Diary - Guess I couldn't resist testing the theory I recently developed, that I have become sugar sensitive or intolerant. Had a brief sugar binge yesterday, not a huge amount of intake but several sugar laden things. Got it under control pretty quickly but not before having a cookie, a piece of candy (truffle type) and some ice cream (not a whole serving). Didn't feel bad at bedtime but when I woke early AM had rough tummy, sulfur burps and diarrhea.

That was when I thought about the fact I had eaten so much sugar during that little binge. I'm thinking that 2 years of mostly controlled sugar intake has resulted in a higher sensitivity to it than I had back when I ate pretty much whatever I wanted to. On the other hand, I may have had it for a while but didn't recognize it for what it was. Found a list of symptoms of this condition and I fit a majority of them. I think I need to do a little more research on this subject as well as being more diligent in avoiding sugar "binges".

Today, I think went pretty well, was under my allowance by at least 100 calories. Still maintaining weight at or below my goal. Have to be up early tomorrow, need to get to bed shortly.
