A few things.

I just realized how behind I am here. Just a few things I've been dealing with lately.

Item #1. The fact that Theo will likely NEVER digest dairy and I am okay with that. This is an amazing conclusion since I found enzymes that aide him in digestion but I can still tell that it's a toxin to his poor little body. Please folks if you think that this is the way to go in order to digest dairy please rethink it. Much research proves that humans were not intended to digest dairy from other animals. We can use other things to make our sweet treats (that we should also limit) and get our calcium.

Item #2. I WILL be healthy no matter what my weight does. I am starting to feel really good and it's been almost a year since my surgery (thyroid for those that are unaware). My weight fluctuates and that is extremely difficult for me to deal with emotionally. It's NOT about my emotions though. It's about being healthy. I exercise and eat appropriately (most of the time). This is what I am going to accept as my reality.

I will be adding more to this later when I am more clear in thought. Thank you for reading this installment.

I am glad to see an update, Maria! I look at your site often.

I am with you on the dairy...always was! ;-)
Although, when pregnant, I get cravings for Ben and Jerry's Half-Baked, for some reason. I cannot eat it when not pregnant, though.

Best wishes for a healthy new year!
Love you,
Beth

Amen on being healthy no matter what. That's awesome! The kids and I still don't do milk, however we can do cheese and yogurt now. He'll be just fine regardless;)
