with visions of raw veggies dancing in my head.
Things I am looking forward to:
(and are hoping are positive effects of the detox)
* not getting sick 2x day
*not waking up with stomach cramps
* bye-bye fatigue
*to begin to feel like myself again-
i.e. Go grocery shopping and not come home feeling like I ran a marathon and being EXHAUSTED!
Not needing a nap to survive the day.
Things I am going to miss:
*grains-I love my carbs.
*gum-I am going to cheat and chew gum when I'm on the airplane.
I still get CRAZY INTENSE ear pain.
But that goes back to another issue I have...
*quick and easy meals
Things I am scared about:
*I don't like a lot of meat. I'm almost vegetarian.
I sure don't like preparing it.
*It not changing my current inflammation and other diseases.
I have been so encouraged by reading blogs and responses on the website.
This girl's blog describes my life these last few years.
Add my other 2 autoimmune diseases and their side effects and that's me.
I'm secretly hoping to find myself again.
Currently, I'm hidden under disease, medications, and weight.
*Life post 30
What if this works? Will I never have bread and dairy again?
To feel good=totally worth it.
But, not to eat Mexican food when we come back to Texas? That sounds tragic!
So here we go!

I've always been so interested in Paleo. It seems so hard when you dont live like that. I'll be interest in watching your journey. You can do it!!! I can't wait to hear how you feel. I hope it's a great blessing for you and your health. Good luck!!!
My hubby eats paleo and I have a great website for recipes. All his CrossFit friends do too! It really isn't hard to cook Paleo. Also, my cousin is a mama and has RA and she treats all her RA with diet- no gluten. Seriously-let me know if you want suggestions. I am excited to watch your journey. You are one strong mama and you are alway in my prayers.
