Day 4 -- Things are going well. On Day 2 & 3 of the Elimination Diet I discovered that I must've had an unrealized sugar addiction. You cannot use artificial sweeteners and that means either I sweeten my decaf with stevia or forget about it. Well, yuk! I definitely know that I have a cheese addiction! Going without cheese is harder than going without artificial sweeteners.
