I just wanted to touch base in here. I haven't blogged in a while!
I am now down by 28 lbs!
I did fall back a little for a while within the frustration of a plateau of not losing any weight. Frustration seems to play a big part with me. I love instant gratification, and when I stop losing for a couple weeks, I step into old habits a little bit. Now,the weird thing is that I get right back on to Primal and go for gusto! I again start losing weight! When I stumbled back, I didn't go eating all shit food though, I did pay attention and ate healthy for about 60 to 70% of the time. So, I didn't gain back any weight, but didn't lose any either. I noticed a HUGE difference in the way I felt. I was so tired, and I just felt crappy for days and days. My Fibro flared immediately within the next day after eating grains and my Acid Reflux was awful again.
Now I am so happy to be back to feeling great again!
I also wanted to share something that really kills me...People that do not research the foods that they are recommending to others!!!!!!!!
One of my FB friends is going Gluten Free. Someone suggested that she use Smart Balance's 'Fake Butter'...Egg Beaters, and Truvia. I wanted to scream!!!! OMG People, PLEASE don't eat these things!
Just for kicks and maybe gaining of a tiny bit of knowledge, look here:

Smart Balance...

Also, Look it all up for yourself! Look at the ingredients in theses so-called 'foods'. HORRIBLE!
I cannot stress enough, Please do a bit of research for yourselves and READ the labels of everything. Do not be fooled by the "Natural" on the labels either. Don't eat processed foods! Simple,Healthy and Easy.
