Fried egg, fried sweet potatoes, kale and tea
Fried eggs, and a ham, avo. mayo, Kerrygold cheese and green leaf lettuce roll-up.
More eggs, ham spinach, and GF pancakes with honey
Lovely meal outside in the sunshine 🌞 Soft fried eggs, baby potatoes and greens. And of course, a jar of tea. This one is a peach ginger tea from Pinkstork.com. it's meant as a morning sickness cure, but in general its just really good for digestion, and it's yummy.
My low carb version of Pad Thai, made with cauliflower rice instead of rice noodles.
Breakfast on a Saturday when some of my younger siblings were visiting: omelette with cheese and greens, avocado, GF toast with cinnamon and coconut oil, leftover GF cornbread and a fruit platter.
I got this jar of lemon curd from my SIL for my birthday and I threw it in the freezer since I had alot of cake to eat 😆 now it's thawed and waiting in the fridge for me anytime I want a little bite of something sweet.
Ok, so this is not food, but I wanted to document that I have started my vitamin B shots again. My recent blood work showed that I was correct in thinking my thyroid symptoms were flaring, and between my Naturopathic Dr. and NAET/NET practitioner, we have figured out a new supplement list, which includes at least three different B vitamins. Stress is a big trigger for my flare ups, and also likely the original cause, and B vitamins are essential to your body's  ability to deal with stress. Also, a large percentage of the population needs a special form of B vitamins in order for your body to use it, due to a genetic variation. Look into the difference between folic acid and folate if you're interested in doing a little research.

Dinner picnic by the bay- pulled pork (in green enchilada sauce) tacos, berries and "peeled Cheetos" as my kids call them. (Really they're the new "natural" version of white cheddar Cheetos) We don't eat them often, but they're fun for a special treat.
Paleo Crispy Waffles, used to make an amazing egg sandwich with Kerrygold cheese, soft fried eggs and a tiny drizzle of honey. So good 😋

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

Transformation // Hair Analysis #2

I haven't posted in over a year.  I have six drafts that I started writing and never posted because I just couldn't decide what to say, with all the current world events and how I was feeling emotionally and mentally, (kind of all over the place), so....it has been quite awhile since I updated on where I'm at in my health journey. When I last posted here, I talked about DNRS and what a difference it was making for me. I am very happy to say that, even with the world being turned upside down, I was still able to keep that new level of health I had reached, and I am now doing better than ever. That's not to say there haven't been a lot of ups and downs, and some really low lows, but I really believe that I healed my root cause issues. 2 years ago, I was working on treating anxiety, SIBO, low stomach acid, HPA axis dysfunction a.k.a. adrenal fatigue (the most severe my doctor had seen on paper), other hormonal issues, and more, all at the same time; it was challenging

Updated Supplement Protocol

This is my current protocol of supplements we are using to support my body in healing my gut, hormones, and overall health. I am posting this partly to document my progress, and also to share what is working for me,  and to maybe give people ideas to ask their doctor about. Do not just start taking any supplement without working with a trained practitioner. There are too many personal and varying factors to navigate the world of supplements and vitamins alone. Do yourself a favor and get professional, knowledgeable help to give you the best chance at complete recovery and fastest results. I saw my Naturopath last week, and we went over my symptoms and adjusted my supplements and added in a couple new things. This protein shake is one of the new additions to my treatment plan. OptiCleanse GHI is a protein powder supplement that we are using to support healing my gut, specifically leaky gut, and also support liver detox. It tastes quite good actually, which I was ver
