oh, sugar sugar!

Posted on November 11, 2003 by mariko

I went to an acupuncture/acupressure person today regarding my migraines. She did some sort of muscle testing thing and determined that yes, there’s something wrong with my head (heh heh), and that I have a sensitivity to sugar. She instructed me to avoid sugar in any form for 25 hours. What?!? I CONSUME NOTHING BUT SUGAR. I can’t have milk, bread, yogurt, fruit, candy (duh), any sauces with sugars, ack, nothing! I was really hard pressed to find anything suitable for dinner. I ended up eating pasta with olive oil and garlic. It may sound good, but it was rather bland. Sigh. At least the session felt good: she did some shiatsu on my neck and upper back, then stuck me with needles. I go back next week.

    I am so sympathetic! You were so good to me when I did my allergy sensitivity diet. Look for your packages tomorrow night.

    Gah! That sounds awful! Although 25 hours doesn’t sound TOO bad. At least it’s not, like, a week or more. I don’t know what I’d do.

    I did a low-carb thing and did the whole two-week induction. I never would have believed I could go for 14 days without sugar but I did it! And I felt really good about myself for having done it. You will be just fine. 🙂
