Weight problems - couldn't ]sleep, was always tired, concentration problems. I was always drawn to fruits and fibreous veggies - but my parents would say "if you eat to much of that, you'll make it worse. Too much gives you the runs." So I believed them - and just felt awful all the time, but was convinced it was just normal for me.<br /><br />Then a couple years ago as a young adult, my entire body spiraled out of control. It was embarrassing and for months I wanted nothing but to hide away from everyone. Eventually I cut out dairy, followed by gluten a couple of months later. It helped immensely - many of the symptoms I had went away, and I lost about 15 of the 30-35 lbs I had gained - then I was stuck and felt like I would never be "right" again. I thought I had celiac disease<br /><br />Over the next few years I began to notice that I would have problems when I ate rice, potatoes, corn (especially corn...yeek), yams. Thinking that didn't sense with celiac disease, I just thought that was the way I was. Then in April, I did a Daniel Fast - which restricts you to eat only fruits, vegetables, and nuts. and just like you I WAS ASTOUNDED! I suddenly felt so healthy! I ate more and more often, but I had so much energy,I could sleep, my stomach cramps and unpredictable stopped - and I lost 7 lbs in one week. I didn't stick to that diet right away (my family convinced me it wasnt healthy...but eventually my feeling awful decided I didnt care what they thought.)<br /><br />Now I'm eating only fruits, veggies, nuts, raw honey chicken, fish....and trying to figure out if eggs and other meats are okay. And ALL my symptons have gone away - and Ive lost at least 45 lbs! <br /><br />Sorry for the long novel, but its been a really cool journey and I wanted to share it! If you google antinutrients, Im convinced that was my problem and a problem for so many people!<br /> <br /><br /><br />- K -https://www.blogger.com/profile/05852857965608997997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2347014501783229887.post-61220491569225498142012-08-14T09:23:20.202-05:002012-08-14T09:23:20.202-05:00That is absolutely awesome!
