Sugar
Last night I had a slice of blackberry pie. It was packed/dense with blackberries and there was no juice. I slept like a log. Don't remember any tossing or turning. It took me more than an hour to get out of bed this morning -- I just kept hitting the snooze button. I have been "off" all day and feel like I am hung over. My eyes don't feel "wide open".
I suspect white flour as well as the sugar. I haven't eaten anything with sugar and white flour for so long that I am sure this is a reaction. I don't plan on eating white flour/sugar again.
I am so sorry for the terrible night's sleep that resulted from a seemingly innocuous dessert...it is tough to learn the hard way but for many of us that is the way that really sticks and reminds us not to do it again!

I did something simliar with the exact opposite results. My husband wanted ice cream so I compromized and bought a pint of locally made organic frozen goat yogurt. No homogonized milk, live cultures--not bad right--or so I thought. I'm writing this at 4am--couldn't get to sleep until 1am, so I've had a whopping 3 hours of sleep. :oops:
The reason I can't sleep? This unexplainable itching of my skin all over my body. One would think it was just dry skin, but I have a humidifier set at 40% humidity in the house. I'm pretty sure it's an allergic reaction to the sugar.
I had this itchy feeling before but attributed it to the dry Colorado winter. I wasn't itchy the whole time I stayed with the program, but the itchy-ness came back once I put that junk food in my mouth. Ugh! Why do I have to learn the hard way!?
