 When your day starts with a fried egg sandwich, with Paleo waffles for the bread, that's a good morning.😊
 Dinner- Broccoli, fresh, sweet corn on the cob from the produce stand down the road, small lettuce and carrot salad with my HM dressing, and a turkey patty. Fast and easy.
 After church dinner/snack- fried eggs (the yolks were perfect, just the way I love them), fried Spam (yep, that's right, we eat it. Not all the time though.), and avocado. And Yogi Bedtime tea.
 Saturday morning breakfast- Paleo waffles, scrambled eggs with Spam and cheese, grapes, and a few fresh veggies.
 Lunch- Broccoli, shredded sweet potatoes, cheese and sourcream, and ground beef. Tasted kinda like a casserole I ate growing up...and kinda like a loaded baked potato. I just threw together some leftovers for a quick meal, and it turned out good. Don't be afraid to experiment. Especially if you batch cook.
 Scrambled eggs, roasted sweet potatoes and avocado. Tea.
 Date night! Fiamma Burger is so good and their sweet potato fires are the best! They also have GF buns and a GF fryer too, so the fries aren't contaminated. Love it when restaurants are accommodating like that! Ordered to-go and ate our burgers in the park nearby.
 Date night dessert-Acme dark chocolate ice cream from Rocket Donuts. After the burgers we went for a long walk down a pier over the bay and then to town to get ice cream. It was a lovely evening, and I had the best company💑
 Huge salad, loaded with: roasted sweet potato, carrots, ham, avocado, green onions, and HM dressing. With carrot juice, yum!

 Sandwich! Ham and Kerrygold cheese with butter lettuce and avocado oil mayonnaise. I don't eat sandwiches that often, so they are a treat for me, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
Cauliflower puree with ground beef & sweet potatoes. I love this any but especially for breakfast. Batch cooking make it easy to have this healthy breakfast ready right away.

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...
