I am feeling pretty darn good these days. I am amazed at how my health is slowly returning to me. I remember when it felt tough to clean up the kitchen, wash clothes, do simple tasks well. Now, it's a breeze. I knew I was sick, but I'm realizing just how sick I've been.
I still have days where I feel tired and I can usually link that to staying up too late (I'm guilty of this often as a night owl!) or getting gluten from eating out/cross contamination in some way or in something I didn't think about, but it never lasts all day anymore. I think I get more done in one day than I did in two or three in the past. Pretty sad.
And I'm still marveling at the feeling of normal hunger and usually not feeling hungry. Amazing. I am honestly pretty happy with where I am right now in my healing. I plan to continue on with it and monitor/journal for food reactions, etc. as I've been doing. I am thinking that I want to lose more weight, sure, but I do better focusing on every day health and ignoring the weight most of the time. Weighing in a couple times a week seems to help me do that. Then, I can listen to the hunger/fullness cues I now actually have! And if something is off with those, I know something is weird about what I've eaten or that I need more protein or water. Pretty easy to hear it now.
I'll post more when I have something that's not boring or when I hit a bump in the road.
