How Do I Know If I Passed?
Cycle 2
Diary of a JJ Virgin Diet Follower
Dear Diary ,
I just passed my Egg Test. The Egg Test in Cycle 2 of The Virgin Diet is where I reintroduced my eggs back into my diet and track adverse symptoms. Sooo, just what sort of adverse symptoms was I really looking for? Bloating, gas, stomach upset, heartburn or anything that made me feel badly during the Egg Test.
The Egg Test consisted of my eating good organic, free-range, clean eggs(to be exact, I ate an omelet) on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, then I went egg-free on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. The entire time I track my symptoms looking for anything that would indicate I am egg intolerant.
Since, I had no symptoms and feel really great with no apparent signs of an egg intolerance, I conclude that eggs are certain to become a part of my routine diet.
So, I passed the Egg Week, now what? Well, the next test is the dairy challenge to see if I can tolerate cow's milk. But, for now, I'll just eat eggs in extremely moderation. Stay tuned for the dairy challenge.
Although, I used to love eggs and formally included them in my diet daily, I can only have eggs a few times per week according to JJ Virgin. That's fine, because in the past, (before starting The Virgin Diet journey) I was probably eating more eggs that I should have been eating anyway.
