Okay, so I honestly have no idea how people who develop food allergies DON'T eat the food anyways! (Unless it's life threatening of course) 

After delivering Audrey, I have become lactose intolerant. I used to eat a bowl of cereal EVERY morning without fail. 

I loooooooove eggs and toast. 

I loooooooove ice cream.

And I LOOOOOOOOVE CHEESE! 

(I never liked yogurt, or cottage cheese - Basically, the things that taste sourly nasty, so they don't matter.) 

Since I've developed this condition, I have steered (mostly) clear of these foods that cause me great pain and agony. 

But for some reason.... I just cannot go a week without trying a piece of cheese and seeing if I am cured yet.

So last night.... After working out..... (At midnight) I figured I'd grab a piece of cheese for a little energy. 

Big...... Mistake......

I was in bed feeding Audrey and I got the most gut wrenching, unbearable pain in my chest. Oh my gosh, I couldn't swallow, I had to keep my mouth open to draw in breath..... It was awful!!! And very painful!!!  

And yet..... My passion for cheese continues and I would still try a piece again today! Maybe a teeny tiny little piece. Haha

Aren't there special enzymes that you can buy from health food stores that solve the lactose intolerance?

Ya, I didn't even think of it until my friend said Lactaid helps!
