Painful Salad?

#1

Im on day 27 of Keto WOE and I decided last night to eat my first salad. To date I have had zucchini 1 time and asparagus 1 time (very small portions).

Had the salad as dinner and for the first time really starting the diet I woke up with horrible horrible stomach pains and lovely bathroom visits!

Salad was hearts of romaine, a bit of tomato, 3 jalapeno slices - mild, turkey, cheese and home made dressing from avocado oil, sour cream and heavy cream.

Anyone else experience stomach cramping from salad?

Stomach cramps from the new adjustment to keto for sure! Just wanted to stay home from work yesterday, but knew it was A-OK.
Just stick with it and it, I’m told in research, stabilizes.

(You've tried everything else; why not try bacon?) #3

The only times I have gotten stomach cramps from salad were not because of keto, but because of salmonella or E. coli.
