I'm alive

I'm still alive but I had to put Paleo on hold for a few weeks. I had a really bad reaction to those meds i spoke about in an earlier post, prednasone. I have gone to my family doc, clinics and then finally the ER and looks like i have dyspepsia which is Severe acid reflux. It was to a point where I felt nausea all the time and even threw up lots so i'm on a bland diet of rice and boiled bland chicken. I made myself some ginger cookies ( that are paleo) and help a lot. but i've tried to add food to my diet and with no luck it makes me throw up and then i start back to zero in the healing process. It's been 3 weeks on this chicken and rice diet I have lost weight, have no energy and just am all around irritated ... my poor man has had to put up with my mood swings and hasn't run away yet ...  I'm on meds for the acid and it's helping but i'm extra careful. I had to quit coffee which was soo ahrd and is still hard as I love the taste and smell of coffee and the caffein of course ...

I'm miserable, but I guess it could be worst. I've had to go to a few parties now and bring my own chicken and rice .. i'm just sick of being sick :( if i could add variety that would be great but so far it's been an epic fail :(

so this is my story... and this is why i have been MIA but I will be back with a vengance ..

I started reasearching coconut oil and how it's a huge benefit to our bodies and started taking 1 tbsp of it today. I might up that daily, but i'm doing baby steps. Apparently it heals so many things and makes your skin and hair healthier too ! have to figure out a better way of taking it as i just ate it straight up from the jar and it wasn't to good felt like i was eating a table spoon of lard !




i went back to the gym yesterday and it felt good to be back ... Like I said i didn't gain any weight which I was worried about eating the rice but i'm eating so little that it hasn't harmed me. I can't wait to go back to eating more paleo. I'm looking up new workout programs. I need a change :)
