Pick a notebook to use as your histamine elimination diary to centralize your note taking. And choose a time when you write down what you ate every day. I decided on bedtime but if it's easier you can take note after each meal.
Looking back at my notebook, I see I followed the histamine elimination diet for 71 days. I went over the suggested 4-6 weeks because there were days when my bucket was still overflowing. So I figured going a little longer would give my stomach and my morale a good break.
That said, on day 31, I was already feeling better and wrote this as a side note:
Going well. Much less bloated, no digestion pains. Feel better. More energy. Lost weight around my middle.
However, on day 35, I wrote this as a side note:
Really bad night with racing heart and panic attacks.
It really is a case by case decision. I'm glad I stuck it out for as long as I did because my body needed it. And my mind thanked me for it.
