When your autoimmune disorder is triggered by specific foods but you haven’t eaten in 5 days so you don’t know why the fuck flares are happening!
When you’re on day 5 of a fast and you gained 2 lbs because of your period. Boo.
…
The flares are probably cause of the period… Stupid body.
Feeling ya! The hormone/water weight rollercoaster is such a mission haha. My body has just decided to reject food totally. For over a week since reducing feeding window it’s been constant nausea and can’t really eat at all without feeling ill anymore! Pretty sure it’s period related?Female bodies are so damn fussy haha
Oh my god, I relate so hard to this.
I have coeliac and I’m recovering from a pretty bad glutening just now so taking supplements and fasting to help along the healing, and I’m getting random bouts of illness that are driving me crazy!
And why are our bodies such absolute arseholes when it comes to our periods? Why do I gain 2 kilos every so often for no reason? Why does my period take so long to arrive but then I hold on to so much water for a week around it? Bleurgh.
Men have it so easy when it comes to fasting.
I have atopic dermatitis (also autoimmune disorder basically) and from what I understand the flares could be your body starting to clear the toxins the only way it knows - flare ups! After your colon is clear, they should ease up.When I think about it that way I feel good - cleaning up my system!
