As I continue on my journey towards wellness, I am finding new things, such as candida, that complicate my recovery. My doctor ordered tests for candida antibodies, but I haven't had the energy to go in and get them done. I am also looking into gluten intolerance, as opposed to Celiac, which I don't believe I have. I do know that I feel better and have less brain fog when wheat is not in my system. Also, at long last, the weight is just starting to budge. I have tried WW 3 times, with limited success, Atkins, again, with limited success, plus others I won't even name here. Over the years I have had little succes in losing weight, while no matter what I did the pounds piled on. I am now finding my own way to avoid the cravings, which turn out to be adrenally related. I am eating vastly different than what I grew up with. I am now eating sprouts we grow ourselves, much more raw foods than I would have dreamed several years ago. I am reading about enzymes - see the following website, which has given me a lot of info: http://thedoctorwithin.com/index_fr.php?page=articles/enzymes_longevity.php - after reading this I am determined to become a healthy person by getting the enzymes I need from my foods, which means more fresh foods. I still eat meat; I like it and don't want to live without it. That may change as times goes on. I am making changes a little at a time, so that I know what is working and what is not. If I change too many things at once I have no idea what is wrong if things are not working, so I take changes slowly. It took more than 50 years to get the way I am; things are not going to change overnight.
