The little shit
Mar. 29th, 2010 08:59 pmI have determined, with no question left in my mind, that sugar is the culprit. Babe is hereby banned from wheat AND sugar. Natural sugars, like honey and maple syrup, don't seem to affect him, but white (and brown) sugars and corn syrup make him shit his pants and lie and just become a fucking infant.
I am so mad at him right now. So. Mad.
Especially because the little shit stole most of the sugar he consumed in the last few days. And lied about it. And deceived me. Twice.
Perhaps it's not nice to write about one's progeny like this, but fuck that. Yes, I love him, but right now my love is being shown by staying as far away from the little bugger as I can without leaving the house.

My sister has serotonin issues - as does S1. Sugar makes her tired and has less energy.
My sister was tested, S1 we just have decided it was the right diagnosis (as did her doc) without testing. We do know, based on her 3 day GTT test (the one you have when preg) that she dumps sugar rather than having a spike and her pancreas creates too much insulin. This seems to be her culprit.
Even S1 says that she is less tired and can deal better with stress when she doesn't have sugar.
I did find that adding fiber to her sugar consumption seems to help (i.e., mini wheats don't affect her, adding flax meal to cookies helps too (ok, splenda helped also, but now I'm going to play with the type of sugar with the flax meal in the cookie.)
Anyway, this is the long version of - you may be on to something sherlock!

Date: 2010-03-30 02:08 pm (UTC)Yes, in my family sugar renders stool sticky (tar like) and difficult to 'expel'. I don't even give my kids fruit juices because of that.
If my little guy eats a 'popcicle', his underwear will be stained with stool for three days and it will take for ever for him to have a normal BM afterwards. (Sorry tmi! )
Hope your situation improves. :D
