The author Lee Holmes herself suffered from an autoimmune disease which, according to her intro, she completely conquered and continues to manage through a commitment to a body-right eating plan. That's what I'm talking about!
Since last I posted, I would say I have been eating the right diet for me and my diabetes only seventy percent of the time. Winter and pregnancy, and then new-baby-ness all made me feel very time poor, and like the right food choices were sometimes too hard.
I have got to tell you, this is one of the best cook books I have read in a very long time, and I really devoured it, page by page, front to back, and then again, to make notes. I did an online shop late last night, filled with healthy organic choices to make implementing this lifestyle a bit easier. It was so inspirational.
Well, one day in and I am pretty pleased. My first confession, in the spirit of blognesty, is that I am writing this with a delicious glass of ice cold sauvignon blanc in hand. I am taking it one vice at a time, and, I have not had coffee all day, and have managed to stick to nutritious, natural whole foods for meals and snacks. Breakfast was organic porridge with a spoon of pure cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon to help keep my glood glucose levels stable.
Lunch was a huge win- sliced cabbage with onion, parsley and dill from the garden and a tin of salmon, walnuts and a mustardy mayonnaisey dressing, topped with a beautiful Barossa dukkah. It was unbelievably good, even if I do say so myself.
So. Wish me luck. One good food choice at a time is my mantra.
