\"Blogging<\/p>\n

I\u2018m a big fan of to-do lists, both handwritten and digital. I also love getting the individual to-dos, want-to-dos or whatever you like to call them depending on their respective level of fun back off my list and off my back for good. But sometimes one of the to-dos decides to stay on the list. It is times like those, when I simply can’t complete the job at hand. Instead that small to-do becomes a ubiquitous mental note, floating above of my inner mess of thoughts, making me more miserable and more afraid to tackle it with every day I\u2019ve failed to approach it. I hate it. Believe me, I\u2019m not talking about some dreadful task here. I just hate it, because I know perfectly well that getting it done would be an easy way to clear my mind. Yet I still fail to follow through.<\/p>\n

This is why I was afraid to check the date of my last post here. I still haven\u2019t looked it up. There is no need to. However long it has been since my last post I haven\u2019t forgotten what I\u2019d been meaning to tell you:<\/p>\n

For one, we have been welcoming, hosting and seeing off a steady flood of visitors from home who seized their summer holidays as an opportunity to explore Istanbul with us. So there we were, guiding our guests, showing them around, running up and down the hills of this beautiful city at a constant average temperature of 32\u00b0C\/90\u00b0F in the shade and taking a break here and there making me unlearn snacking<\/a> for the \u2018I\u2019ve stopped counting\u2019-est-time.<\/p>\n

I also missed out on telling you that it’s been 8 weeks now since I cancelled wheat from my diet. I had kind a sudden sort of epiphany, when I realized why so many of you fellow fructose malabsorptioners avoid wheat. Food life has been quite adventurous since I started my gluten-free journey and there is much to tell you about in my next post.<\/p>\n

We also celebrated a birthday, my very own thirtieth birthday to be precise, which I still find slightly weird realizing it is my own age. But if being in ones thirties means getting a fructose friendly cheesecake<\/a> from my boyfriend I willingly embrace this new era. He kindly gave his permission to share the recipe too and so I will, shortly.<\/p>\n

On another note I missed out on sharing the following article, which reminds us of why it’s a good thing, that fructose is bad for us and why it\u2018s worth it taking a stand against this little monster day in day out. Read it here<\/a>. Found on No Sugarless Gum<\/a>. Thanks for sharing Paige!<\/p>\n

So much for my long overdue update. It was good to catch up. I’m looking forward to sharing more details on my newly acquired fructose AND gluten free eating habits with you soon! Have a great Sunday!<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Ich bin ein gro\u00dfer Fan von To-Do-Listen, sei es auf Papier oder iPhone. Ich liebe es To-Dos, Want-Dos oder wie auch immer man sie abh\u00e4ngig vom jeweilen Spa\u00dflevel nennen mag, abzuhaken. Manchmal passiert es jedoch, dass einer dieser Aufgaben, gar nicht unbedingt von schwieriger Natur, einfach auf dem Zettel h\u00e4ngen bleibt. Eine unscheinbare, ohne gro\u00dfe Anstrengung erledigbare Aufgabe, die ich einfach nicht zum Zuge kommt. Die stattdessen zur omnipr\u00e4senten, mentalen Notiz wird, die noch \u00fcber allem anderen Gedankenwirrwar in meinem Kopf herumschwirrt. Und mit jedem Tag, an dem ich es wieder nicht geschafft habe, sie zu erledigen, f\u00fchl ich mich elendiger, denke noch mehr dar\u00fcber nach und r\u00fccke doch nur ein bisschen mehr vom sehnlichst erw\u00fcnschten Haken weg. Das schlimme daran, ich wei\u00df noch ganz genau, dass es so ein einfacher Weg w\u00e4re den Kopf frei zu bekommen. Und trotzdem schaffe ich es nicht, mich endlich an die Arbeit zu machen.<\/p>\n

Genau deshalb wollte ich mir auch das Datum des letzten Posts nicht so genau anschauen. Warum auch, ich weiss ja, dass der letzte Beitrag eine gef\u00fchlte Ewigkeit her ist, ich wei\u00df ja, was ich alles vers\u00e4umt hab euch zu erz\u00e4hlen\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[9,43,45,46,53,55,285,97,131],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/472"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=472"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/472\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=472"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=472"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fructopia.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=472"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
