After a 5 month slump into the netherworld of yeast, bloating, mood swings, weight gain, and general malaise, I am tossing my bread and honoring my body again.
It crept up so slowly that I hardly noticed it happening until the yeastie beasties were out of control, and I was so very disconnected from my body.
So earlier this week I wrote a list of all the foods I was surrendering to my gluten eating roommates, and today, I went food shopping and purchased nearly all fresh fruits and veggies (some tofu in the mix). I've eaten very clean the last 2 days and attended a superfab yoga workshop today (thank you, Faern!), and already I feel my emotional, mental, spiritual, and physical bodies realigning and supporting each other!
So yeah, as Faern mentions in the other thread, sometimes it's good to have these slip-ups cause the yuckiness reminds you why you stopped eating this stuff in the first place. But 5 months is too long. It's good to be back to me. :)

My skin is clearer...my moods have stabilized...the bloating has gone away...my allergies are practically gone...
Good stuff!
