It's been a year and I am back to it

I stopped blogging when things didn't go as planned. My one year raw turned into a almost there to raw and OVER.  I learned a lot about each food I stopped eating on it's on and I really saw changes. I didn't, however, make it to getting rid of meat. Gaining weight seemed inevitable. Turns out meat is a big part of my weight issue, or so it seems in my latest experiment.

Flash forward gaining another 10 1bs back and another new 10 lbs on- heading full forwarding into back to normal. Lots of dairy and meat. I went gluten free 9 months ago. That has stuck- mostly because I just can't go back to eating gluten. I get so sick. But lots of meat and dairy and grains ruled my world.

I got sick 3 months ago with a very strong illness- just a cough that wouldn't go away, with a fever.  It has sucked. It came and went for the last 3 months and 3 doses of antibiotics later- I am done. About a week ago I became a vegetarian. Vegan I guess- No dairy, Only Gluten Free grains, No meat. Low and behold, down 5 lbs. The happiness I feel is overwhelming.

For me it wasn't being fat that did it this time, it was losing my beauty and feeling like I could cause my own sickness and might not be able to undo it. My motivation is truly to get my health back- something I took for granted, and to get my figure back. I want to live again and be happy. Cheers to the possibilities of a happy life. It's not what I don't get to eat, it's how I get to feel while I really live.
