What I eat

You could say I am a very picky eater. I try to eat healthy. No artificial colors, artificial flavors, artificial sweeteners, high frutose corn syrp or gmo's. I limit soy and proceed foods (but sometimes you need an Amy's meal night). And I buy organic when ever I can.

For as long as I can remember I have stomach issues. And I have taken medication on and off for the past 20 years to try and help. But the meds didn't fix the problem, it help it from hurting as much. But I was taking a muscle relaxer 4 times a day. And if I didn't take it right on time, I would still end up sick. So knowing that there are some foods that I just can't eat. I thought I would play with my diet and see what happens.

My diet had very little red meat and some chicken. So I thought that would be a good place to start. And so I cut meat out and I could tell a difference. Then eggs came out, until finally dairy. Ice cream was the hardest to give up, but I have found some good replacements.

So I have gone from a flexitarian (a vegetarian that will eat meat) to a vegan over the last six months. And it has made a huge difference in the way I feel. I no long feel sick to my stomach all the time. I have been able to stop taken medication for my stomach, which has help increase my energy level. I just feel better over all.

Spring Break

With my goal of posting twice a week and it's already Wednesday. I thought I better start writing. It's not that I don't have a lot that I can write about. It's just finding the time to sit and write. It is spring break at my house and it's also SXSW week. So there is lots of entertaining to do but there is also a lot of entertainment this week. I spent the weekend at SXSW Screenburn. Got to see storm troopers, lots of new games and Mike Tyson.  And I plan getting some music in later this week.
