Kristin, you might not be allergic to soy, but you could be sensitive to it which would mean you don't have a sudden reaction to it but that you have diarrhea a day or 2 after you eat it. i found the best way to check is to keep a food journal for a month or so and look for any patterns in your symptoms. things might jump out at you. The other thing i found to be really beneficial is to do an elimination diet (but this should definitely done with the assistance of a doc/health care practioner/nutritionist who knows what they're doing). also, on a personal note, most of what heather advocates in her books is wonderful, but not everything is right for me: i.e i can't do wheat, dairy, corn, chocolate or soy, of course. it's by trial and error that you'll find out what you're sensitive too, if anything in particular. it's worth it though if it helps you feel better. good luck.
