Sorry for such a late response back to everyone --- we have had over 7 inches of rain locally and bad thunderstorms, so my computer has been offmost of the last two days.


Thank you so much for everyone's support. I ended up being just fine, but was really gassy (which could have simply been because of what was ON the sandwich... all the yummy veggies and good bread). I was very scared for most of yesterday and was relieved to wake up this morning without having any D* in the last 24 hours. The gas was very uncomfortable and that was probably the scariest part of the last 24 hours. Looking back on it, I believe I can attribute the gas to my stomach not getting as much food as it had been used to (just didn't eat much yesterday because I was scared) and due to anxiety.


I will admit that my eating was more "regular" during this past week because of Spring Break. I think I have been experiencing REAL HUNGER too, which has been a big step for me. I don't know if I can continue eating as much as I did over break (school starts back up today), but I did discover I could eat more than I had been eating and not gain as much weight as I had feared. I did gain some weight, but me binging on candy due to stress this past week was probably the cause... and the weight gain was probably not due to the actual real food I was consuming. I just need to be more careful and thankfully most of the candy is gone!
