Day 2 - Spicy coriander yogurt dressing

I started the Candigone last night before bed, some people say the drops are awful, but I don't find it bad at all. I did have a very restless sleep though, felt like I was semi-conscious. When I woke I didn't feel rested at all. I also went to the bathroom about 5 times during the night.

When I woke up, I had stomach cramps and went number 2 three times. My stomach settled later in the morning, but I went pee 5 times before 10:30. After lunch, I had bad gas, which is unusual given what I've been eating, I don't know if it was the adzuki beans or the quinoa.

I know I sound crazy, but around noon, I felt like my vaginal yeast infection was going away, and tonight it feels completely gone. I get a yeast infection every month and I usually just don't bother doing anything about it and let my period clean me out. I've never had one go away on its own. It might all be in my head, we'll see tomorrow.

I felt like my sweat smelled weird today, maybe a little yeasty and I was very tired. Tonight, I took the Candigone before supper so maybe I'll sleep better. It might be totally unrelated though, everybody has a bad night's sleep once in awhile.

Here's what I ate today:
Breakfast: 2 eggs, 1 buckwheat biscuit, peppermint, fennel, ginger tea
Snack: Walnuts, celery
Lunch: Raw carrots, snap peas, quinoa salad, plain yogurt with stevia
Supper: 1/2 cold chicken breast, a bit of quinoa salad, green salad with spicy coriander yogurt dressing

So I mixed up a new dressing for my salad, it was really good and could also be used as a dip for veggies or meat. My son actually at it on his burrito. The buckwheat biscuits I made just as I would any normal baking soda biscuit, but I used nothing but buckwheat flour instead of all-purpose and I used real butter. They don't rise very well and they're a little heavy, but I'm happy to have any "bread" I can. I made a batch and threw them in the freezer to eat with eggs or soup. This weekend I'm going to try to make coconut bread.
