that was a great idea, thank you for suggesting it to me. i think the whole thing of feeling better there..was b/c i was constantly doing activity. be it walking, swimming, scooting or 4-wheeling, my body was always busy in motion. here, i try to get out but on my days off when id like to run, its either fridged cold or rainy and miserable.
my diet was fairly simple: mostly lots of fresh fruits and i always made sure to have salad. before iknew about oils being a trigger i would put some on my salads along with vinegar and never noticed a cramp! but the oil i used was grown by family on very nice and well-maintained farms. also, i remember having rice, stir-fry of tofu and other assorted "meats" over noodles or sometimes plain. usually some bread slices. not too many sweets since we hadnt learned about a vegan store that was over there yet. i am finding out that really, its very high-fat foods and meals and sweets that get to me! but unfortunately, as a girl, its hard to reject those sweets
ive been trying to use rice as my staple for lunch and dinner and find that its filling enough for the period of hunger, but not over-filling where i bloat. but being on such a bland diet is so boring sometimes! thanks for the suggestion! i just try to remind myself of croatia in the house with pictures and such. i have that picture as my background. hopefully it works b/c its one of my favorite pictures i took. and it is so pretty!!!
