Types of food our bodies don't like

I had hypersensitivity to odors in the first 2 months of W/D then they stoped, and now I have it but less intense.

Because of this, I don´t tolerate spicy foods.

I used to eat a lot of CHILE (hotpeppers)

I stay away from caffeine, coffe, coke, etc.I have lost 11 pounds.That worrys me because at 6 feet 2" now I´m at 169 pounds.

That is very good, Alex, you stay away from those. They all cause the worsening of the symptoms. The same with spicy food. Please, don't worry - once you start feeling better, your appetite will be back. What may help, is dividing meals into smaller ones. Eating less at a time, but more often.

I smoke...and of course I know how bad it is. I changed buying cigarettes into only rolling my own, so I can make them very thin. But it's still bad, I know.
I can hardly tolerate alcohol anymore. I used to drink quite a lot before tapering, but while tapering I stopped drinking alcohol and now,
when I have a small beer, or a glass of wine I can feel it taking all my energy and it takes days to recover again...it's like a demon to me. So I avoid it.
I make a mix with decaffeinated and caffeinated coffee, but the best thing would be to only drink decaffeinated. Coffee makes me tremble and agressive....
I have no problems with fizzy drinks. I discovered that Indian Tonic is a good replacement for a beer, because it has a little "bite", and a bitterness that I liked so much about beer.
So I drink tonic quite often.

Thank you Luc for being there and giving support.
