hi - i was really overwhelmes too at first - and must confess i am still overwhelmed on this site! there is tons of information here and there never seems to be enough time in the day to read it all! i had a very similar experience as you growing up and have been c since i can remember. i just happened on this site a couple of weeks ago and was so happy to see so may others like me!
i was afraid of all the white flour and bananas and rice - everything i had been avoiding for years...i've been on the diet and taking acacia for a couple of weeks now and things have gotten better but not great yet...i think i'm doing the diet wrong
welcome! i'm just trying to log on when i can and read what i can and post when i can! i do find though that i can spend hours here and well, i do have to work so...
