So, these are my personal ramblings...they are going to be prolific and probably pretty darn boring so please feel free to ignore but I find having a place to put everything ( the good, the bad, the ugly) down in writing makes a huge difference to me. I first joined this amazing community over a decade ago following the exante and then Keto diet and over the course of a few years managed to loose 63Lbs. Over the course of the last 3 years I have allowed life the universe and mainly a VERY stressful job ( read ME) get in my way and have put back on, not all, but the majority of the weight back on.
ENOUGH - I have to get back to a place where I am looking after my own health!
So here goes...the cliched beginning of a new year. But hey, if it is going to do the trick as a jump start I am down for it!!
Diet wise, I am going to be following a keto diet but aiming to minimise my lectins (I have a couple of health conditions that mean inflammation is a massive factor that I need to get under control). I will be documenting everything I consume in the day including drinks and supplements that I take. And I promise myself to be truthful in what I put down here. I will also be recording how I genuinely feel. In life I always put a front and a brave face on how I feel but this will be a place to honestly express myself and how I feel. This is just for me, not for pity or requiring anyone to gee me up, just to have a place for me to be totally honest.
So....BRING IT ON!!
