Week 1: Search for new foods

It has been 5 days on the elimination diet and myself, a foodie, is struggling with boredom on this diet.
I found it is important to add color to my plate to ensure I will not be having a brown and white meals all the time (ie a plate of chicken and brown rice.)
Summer Seasonal Colorful foods to add on the elimination diet phase:
Yellow and green summer squash
Avocado
Greens:Chards, Kales, etc.
Plums
Berries (except strawberries)
Broccoli (Olivia does not have colic or I would reduce the amount of these)
Yams/Sweet potatoes

Also not forgetting the power of presentation - laying foods in the plate differently can change it up.
I made a rub for the BBQ lamb last night of Organic B. Sugar, Ground ginger, Ground cinnamon, Salt and Pepper which seemed to be a major treat and served this with summer squash and a nice large salad - no dressing this night. Yum!.

So far so good - Olivia appears to be doing better on this diet, time will tell.
She had a Pediatrician appointment on last Wednesday and her weight was up 10 oz in 1 week. Wow!
We also had lab tests done to ensure she is not becoming anemic from blood loss or is having insufficient absorption of protein - all normal.
