Starting a'New!

New year, new resolutions, new blog!

So I've decided that this blog needed to be something that was helpful to other people... something that would be of benefit to ordinary people!

Drum roll please!!!!! :)

Guess we can start with what this blog will be about! So, here's my story.

Over a year ago, I was having a really hard time with breakouts, all over my body, to the point of hives!!! It was embarrassing of course, but it was also painful! My sister told be about a naturopath that she had taken my nephew to after he was literally COVERED in ecsema as a baby (poor kid, looked like a little burn victim!). The "doctor" was able to tell my sister what to change in his diet, and what not to feed him, and within a month his skin was completely clear! Music to my ears of course!

I booked an appointment with the same lady, and she told me I was allergic to sugar! RATS!!!!!!! haha You can imagine how THAT news went over!!! Well, after being completely, and I mean TOTALLY sugar free for over a year, my skin has been soooo much better!! And if I do accidentially have sugar, I'll know within a couple of days!

Besides my skin clearing up, I also noticed I had a lot more energy, and I lost 20 lbs! :) Major bonus!!

Well, just when things started to get "normal" again, we found out from the same "doctor" that my dad had a wheat intolerance! Sheesh!!!! Needless to say, any form of food preparation is an experiment at my house :) But one that we're learning from!

Hopefully, some of the recipes and information I share on here will be of benefit to you!! And please feel free to share any helpful hints that you've learned if you have either of these... shall we say... little annoyances!
