Morning Everyone! It’s my rest day and don’t think for one minute that I am not happy to see it. I would rather sleep in every morning but I don’t. Period!

Last night I was hungry! I made pan grilled chicken with sauteed onions, peppers, mushrooms and then made some quick guacamole with scallions, cilantro, avocado, and some lime juice. But I was still hungry — so I had some dark chocolate and then had an apple with some almond butter — Then I said — I better go to bed before I dip into the ice cream!!

Today makes it 4 weeks into my new approach to eating — I still feel great and am now a firm believer in eating this way. The difference in your body and your overall mood is amazing! Someone asked me why am I doing this –is it to lose weight or for overall health.. While I do want to lose a few more lbs, I really did this because I wanted to see what all the fuss was about. I have always been one of those people who was always tired. Run down even though I worked out and ate fairly well — You ask me, I would have told you I was tired.  I have in the past talked to my dr about it –really confused as to why –he said some people are just that way. Busy lifestyle, stress, genetics –I said I don’t feel like I think I should feel.

But day 7 of eating this way with no gluten/wheat — I felt that overall fatigue fog lift. I could literally feel the difference. Is it a coincidence? So not only does my body look different eating this way — my mood and energy level are where it should be. For an active, in shape women —
