After being diagnosed with Hashimotos, I joined a group on Facebook with others in this same group! One of the first things each one kept saying is to get on gluten free! I kept fighting this decision and so I decided to try Whole 30! I lasted for about 28 days then ended up in the hospital with kidney stones and at that time the only thing that sounded good was a grape sonic slush! After that I veared away from that thought of eating the Whole 30 way and started realizing how much I love my coffee with sweet n low and my French vanilla creamer as well as my long list of foods I love!
The scale kept going up and up even when I was eating back on my plan that helped me lose most of my weight! So a week ago I decided to get back on Whole 30! I know they tell you not to weigh but I did any way! In one day I lost 7 lbs, the next day I lost 1more lb and today a week and a day later I've lost 2 more lbs making a total of 10 lbs! It is strict and yes it is boring! But I'm now seeing results and this is the only thing that has worked!
I have to take one day at a time in my life and sometimes I have to get through it one hour at a time! My addiction is food and that is the truth and all there is to it! We all have to find what works best for each of us!
When we have trials in our lives and things aren't going the way we would like for them to go we find comfort in things outside of Jesus and even though I was reading my Bible, my choices were just that my desires my choices! I know that God is trying to teach me something through this auto immune disease.
When I get down in life the best thing I can do for myself is listen to sermons on you tube! I love to listen to Joseph Prince and when I listen to him my mind and my eyes are always focused back on the one who created me! Today Joseph's lesson was about David singing Psalms (songs) to get through a rough time in his life! If your going through a rough time today and you can't seem to pray start to sing and see what happens to you! God bless you today! We will get through the tough times in our lives!
