I haven't had red meat since Monday and I'm not craving it. I was supposed to cut out dairy at the same time but that was too much for me to do. I'm taking this lifestyle change slow and I'm doing it right. I want this thing to last.
My mother is cooking lamb for Sunday dinner but I'll be eating salmon. I've got this! I can do it. My health is more important than food. Right? I have to keep telling myself that. I have to tell myself that I'm giving up foods but gaining my life. I'm sick of being in the bed. I'm sick of being at the doctors office. I'm sick of not having energy. I'm sick of missing out on social events. I'm sick of spending all my money on medicine. I'm sick of being in the hospital. I'm sick of being sick. So I'll trade food for freedom.
Anyways, this upcoming Monday, I'm getting rid of dairy. Now that's scary because I love dairy. But I can do this.
This week I'll add the list of vitamins and supplements that I'm taking and the reason I'm taking them. Also, I'll add some of my health goals.
So, to date...
I've eliminated all traditional medicine except for my diabetes medication.
I've added vitamins, minerals and supplements.
I've eliminated red meat, pork and alcohol.
