After so many years, I am almost afraid to admit that I feel a sense of freedom from the compulsion to overeat. It has truly been miraculous.
Since starting this anti-inflammatory eating plan, I am down 21 lbs and feel great. My energy and mood are improved. My body feels healthier. I am consuming lots of very good foods in reasonable amounts. I have eliminated sugar and artificial sweetners from my diet along with processed foods. It seems extreme on paper, but the reality has been so simple and easy. Food as taken a more appropriate place in my life. I am not obsessing or afflicted with cravings. I am finding balance, which means that if someone offers me a food I don't normally eat, I graciously say thank you and enjoy it, knowing that a single meal will not do harm.
If you haven't already, I strongly recommend reading Dr. Gundry's Diet Evolution. It gives the science behind the diet and has been very helpful in guiding me in this way of eating.
I am so grateful.
