Restarting after illness
I became ill during a trip, lost almost 10 pounds due to dysentery (sadly, I've regained them since!), and became completely derailed from the weekly program. As a result I didn't get to do the food sensitivity testing during weeks 3 and 4. What's the best way to restart? I should be on week 5 - should I go back to the beginning and start over, or can I pick up where I left off :? ?
Ginny,
You did not mention in your post if you went ahead and ate any of the foods avoided in the elimination phase during the time when you were sick or since...If you are feeling completely better now, I actually would recommend going back to the start of the elimination phase, following the elimination diet for several weeks, and then going ahead with all the food sensitivity testings as you would have had you not gotten sick. I think you will get more out of the program this way rather than trying to jump back in where you left off. Hope this helps,

Thanks Dr. Abramson - I did go off the elimination diet, so I'll restart from the beginning.
