WhatIEat#10

 Sauteed zucchini, Yukon gold potatoes with butter, and fried/grilled trout, caught by Brian and Sophie. Simple and delicious. 

The allowed foods for this week's NAET avoidance phase were fisn 'n chips and cauliflower. The end. Because like every food has B vitamins in it, because there are so many types and they are so important. Thankfully, Trader Joes has some good GF fish in their freezer section, so I managed. But it was not as enjoyable as it might sound, and I have definitely had my fill of fish 'n chips for awhile. :)



Eggs, wonderful eggs! So good on salads, especially with honey mustard dressing and Spam. Oh, yes, I said Spam. I haven't had any for, like, three years, and then last week I was shopping and I saw it and I was like "Yes. I need that." Lol
More salad with boiled eggs, (actually steamed. hard boiled eggs), HM dressing, and bacon bits. And a side of my creamy, garlicky, turkey/rice/veggie casserole-risotto....I'm not very at naming my cooking creations I guess. Haha!
Quick, Sunday morning breakfast-Eggs again, and more Spam, and two leftover GF pancakes with molasses, a.k.a. my new sweet obsession. For real. I love it. After reading about its health benefits, I decided to try it and slowly worked up to my current obsession with the deep, dark, rich taste. Yes, it is still sugar, but it is a good souce of vitamins and minerals like calcium and magnesium and many others. Which just lets me enjoy my pancakes even more.



I tried the Pad Thai place in the mall, and I was so happy to be able to eat this garlic chicken, since it was gluten free which never happens with yummy fried stuff. Yay! It was so good, and ever since I ate it I've been trying to figure out how to get Brian to town with me so he can try it too. (and so I can eat more of it!)

This Is Going Well // DNRS review

{This is going W E L L}  Brian gave me this mug for Christmas, and it's my favorite.❤  All the work I've been doing to retrain my brain and heal my body has been going very well, and I am so excited and optimistic about the future!  I mentioned previously that I would be starting the Dynamic Neural Retraining System, (DNRS), which works with neuroplasticity based techniques to heal an impaired limbic system, which is essentially a brain injury that results from trauma and causes your brain to process and store information as if you are in a constant state of "fight or flight", or emergency response.  Trauma is relative to every individual, and there are different types of trauma; obvious things like death, war, victim of a crime, major accidents, and those sort of things are Traumas with a capital 'T'. Things like illness, chronic stress, unstable family life, negative relationships, and many others, are  traumas with a little 't'; on ...

What IEat#9

Dinner- I love making breakfast for dinner when I don't feel like cooking or have to make dinner fast. Scrambled eggs with spinach, kidney bean, bacon, and GF toast with cashew butter, honey and cinnamon. Dinner- steamed broccoli, Alexia's sweet potato fries (love that Costco has a big bag of them right now!), and beef burger patty with avocado and bacon. Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner- This is what I ate during my last NAET treatment 25 hour avoidance phase. There is a different list of "safe foods" with every treatment, depending on what you're avoiding, and they recommend that you limit yourself to just two or three foods, as the more variety you consume, the more energy it takes for your body to digest and ideally you just want to let your body's energy be as unhindered as possible so you can achieve optimal results. So this time I ate sweet potato, beef roast, and white rice. Yes, I felt a little guilty for the high amount of starch, but its only ...

Fear Is A Liar

 Things have been a bit rough lately for me. You would think that at some point you would somehow get used to the rollercoaster ride of chronic illness, but it really doesn't get easier. Maybe you understand some things more, or learn to cope with symptoms, or give up on things ever going back to how they used to be, but the little comfort there is in the familiarity of "we've been here before" isn't enough to get you through it all.  I realized that maybe one reason it doesn't get easier to go through the ups and downs is because I have not lost hope. I have not stopped living the good days to their full potential. Maybe that makes the bad days hurt a little more, but if you can't embrace the good days, I think that's a sign of moving to the next level of despair.  Don't give up. As Spurgeon says, in one of my favorite devotionals, " Be full of hope! Hope forever! For God does not fail you." (July 21 evening -Morning and Evening-Sp...
