Genre: Opinion/Argumentation

Search One Foot in Front of the Other Since my last post on Wednesday I have stayed on course with reducing my sugar intake and gluten free eating.  So in 5 1/2 days this happened: Yup, 3.6 lbs down! Left hand! WHAT! No freakin' way! Go suck it gluten! Right hand! Ha! I win! A little redder than it was but no longer cracking or getting worse. So hooray!  Success from simply following the diet my doctor and nutritional coach suggest I followed.  But then there is this lovely photo of my right elbow: DUDE! WTF? Does it sometimes get bigger before it gets better? I am banking on this as a visual reminder to keep on track with my Anti-Inflammatory dieting ways.  It's really not easy to stay away from gluten and sugar since it's so readily available in the foods that have brought me (and I am sure many of you) comfort over the years.  There are days like today that I just want to eat a bunch of yummy food that is like poison to my body, but these visuals will keep me on the right path.
