This journey is one for life. There's ups and downs, sprints and marathons, starts and restarts! I'm in it for the long haul because I frankly don't have any other options.
This time around I'm going at it from a Paleo and Gluten Free perspective. I've been informed I have significant sensitivities to certain foods and may be able to tie those to my complaints of anxiety, hormone issues, and general illness and fatigue levels.
I am determined to stick with this because my life right now, well it's not where I want it to be. I want to feel good - I know every day will never be perfect but I need more stability and energy to take on the challenges I have ahead of me.
