I have a few people in my life who continue to hope for me. These folks really want me to see some positive results from this difficult, no impossible, gluten free diet. Ok-it's NOT that impossible.
So far I've had "this or that" come up. Which means, I've been having a hard time assessing if there have been any physical or mental changes in me.
But I'm ready and confident to make my statment.
I've noticed one change. And it's a good change! Is it worth the diet? I'm working through that mentally.
I have more energy. Not a ton more. Not a lot more. But more. And that IS worth it, but I was hoping for whiter teeth, thicker hair, a little bigger chest, less sweating, decreased worrying, oh and a 5 lb wt loss. That being said, I'll take the change in energy level as a positive thing (for now....still hoping for those other things!). I'm noticing it mostly in the afternoon which is usually when I felt heavy and weighed down. Now I feel like I won't collapse after lunch like I used to if I had the chance. I still dread getting up in the morning and could sleep an extra hour or two. But once I'm out the door, I feel lighter on my feet.
There's your update folks. The first real positive change since I started this diet.
wooooooo hooooooooo love the update! and it's about time Kellogs Rice Crispies! Keep it up Raina and so glad you have a bit more energy - that gives you new time in life - maybe someday you'll get that "extra Sunday" in your week that you once wished for.
ReplyDeleteWonderful! I have noticed your energy through your emails...you don't talk as much about being so wiped out at the end of your work day! And so excited about the rice krispies!
