Over the last?áfew weeks I have made a conscious effort to change my diet. I have been?ánourishing myself?áwith good food, learning which foods I have sensitivities to, and?átalking through the entire process with a supportive group of people all doing the same thing. I have lost about ten or so pounds, have lost inches from my waist, and feel like a zillion bucks. How much is a zillion? It is a lot.
The supportive?ábenefits of this experience?áare untold. I am energised and educated. I am empowered. I have not done this alone; I would not have known where to?áfind trustworthy information. My friend (and yours!) Tammy the Clinical Herbal Therapist has spent years?áin research and educating herself on this, as well as other health-related?ásubjects. How fortunate we are that she can help us!
I am currently at the stage where I can reintroduce foods into my diet.?áWho would have thought a yellow pepper would suddenly?ábe so zingy? I have a sensitivity to peppers. I will, therefore try to eliminate them from my diet. Easy to figure this out!
Having learned new recipes over the last few weeks,?áold standbys?áthat I had been accustomed to buying and eating daily?áare surprisingly simple?áto replace. I didn’t think that I could live without cheese. This is one of the things that I will soon be re-introducing. I am looking forward to the experiment, and hope that I am not sensitive to cheese. However if I am… I will still be able to feed myself!
I have learned something new: Organic pumpkin seed butter is my friend.
I wholeheartedly recommend the next Nourishment series, starting up this upcoming Monday the 16th of April. Email Tammy at Fleurbain@gmail.com to register, or for more info.
