For my first post, I would just like to say first and foremost that this journey would be IMPOSSIBLE for ME if it weren't for the help of the Lord. Notice I said ME. Many people have plenty of will power to muster up...me, not so much. I've never been very disciplined with food. And I never had to be until this past year. I ate whatever I wanted whenever I wanted, and never had any issues with my weight or health. I recently had many health issues come up where the common solution to each on was a change in my diet. Now, I completely understand that NOT everyone needs to become a vegan. I understand that not everyone chooses to eat organic. But this is, like I said, MY expirience. All that being said, I hope you enjoy reading this blog, and I pray that you can glean something good from it to help you in your life.
Now that all of that is out of the way...I would like to share a tid bit that I've learned. That would be the fact that this is not a diet, but a lifestyle change. It takes a total commitment. No cheating...no matter who's looking, and by all means, if cheating occurs, get back on the wagon! Fast! I think when it's "time" to make this change, you will be totally commited. I think a lot of people try this as a fad diet and get sick of it...ummm, people like me AT FIRST! I was in LOVE with cheese. I felt pretty sorry for myself that I couldn't have any. But as the hormones used to keep the cow lactating stayed in my system, the sicker I got. Now, I am absolutely disgusted by dairy products! They make me sick. Literally. So, jump in with both feet. Don't be scared. Look at all of the wonderful veggies you CAN have! Enjoy!
