Just finished loading the replacement fridge seems to have everything set. I think I have to adjust the shelves a little but I will wait a while to figure out what is different from how I had it set up last time. something seems off.

I am feeling so much better. So much calmer and getting adjusted to the new WOA. I was whining a bit for a while and fighting things as I hate being restricted. I really hated it. But I have come to accept what I have been dealt.

I have known for years that I have to avoid a lot of foods, top on the list is refined flour products and a ton of different veggies. I slowly over the past couple decades slid back to full avoidance of this fact and naturally gained all that weight and messed up my immune system and set my allergies on fire. I thought my earlier treatments would heal me and I could go back to normal like other people. Well, just like many of us, my body changed and I had to make adjustments or I would get these results. In our 30's some of us slowly notice some changes and they get more pronounced as we age. We can't go back and enjoy our metabolism that we had when we were young. We find we have issues with different foods. Got to learn how to deal with the new us and find the right path to health and happiness.

While I am within a couple pounds of my goal weight, my body shape and health has a longer journey ahead of it. It may take me months to get back into shape, but you know what?? I can take my time to get there. Pushing before I am ready will only set me back. I am happy to be eating to my maintenance level and relieved that I don't have to micro manage my eating any more. The only reason I log my food is to keep track that I don't under eat which has been a problem for me for a while. Eating carnivore is basically as easy as it gets. hopefully one day I heal enough I can sneak in my coffee once in a while. Long term habits are hard to give up. But I can honestly say I really have no cravings. After doing the keto so long I pretty much stifled most of those type of urges. On the simple carnivore they have been even less. progress!
