I've decided to retest bread. I looked at the day I originally tested the bread and I think the weight fluctuation could have been due to other factors. Tomorrow will be a rest day and after that I will resume testing where I left off before falling ill.

I decided to go ahead and test cheese today because I've been craving it for days! I believe it is important to listen to our bodies. Today my body said cheese, so I did it right. There will be no cheetos, doritos or cheese nips...just straightforward cheese sticks. That said...Oh my! CHEESE! So excited! It was amazing :)

I started working out again today...Hula-hooping left bruising as it usually does the first time around. I feel so much better after a good workout!
