Guarded Optimism
My husband wants me to get SJ tested for gluten and dairy intolerance. I hope it just involves peeing in a cup - no needles please.
Today was day two of his diet. He didn't flap his arms once today! I'm very excited.
Today's food intake was:
2 bowls of grapes
3 cups of apple juice
1 1/2 cups of chocolate rice drink (He's not liking this as much as he did.)
A few bites of potato fried in oil
A bowl of gf pasta with Ragu tomato sauce
2 blueberry breakfast bars (A very popular food item.)
1 large bowl of chicken soup
I made the chicken soup with chicken, broccoli, carrots, onion, potato, salt & pepper. I was going to add seasoning salt, but it had whey in it. Everything seems to have whey in it!
It came out great. Usually, I use chicken bouillon, but it also has whey as did the vegetable bouillon.
SJ is actually eating more food than usual, probably because I am spoon feeding him. He doesn't like to feed himself.
"A" got in trouble for leaving her milk on the table. This was, of course, after I warned her not to and explained why. She is used to being a slob and she can't leave her dirty plate out anymore. I'll get her trained. It is past time!

possibly the doc will just have you do what you are doing - eliminate problem foods and then possibly introduce them back in to see their effects - before going to lab/blood testing.
Sounds like he's eating very healthily for a kid. Check out Badger's post on her kid's eating habits; her sons is autistic, and she's got all sorts of dietary stuff going on.
