odyssey's Journal, 04 Aug 10

Something odd I just noticed. I don't know exactly what it means yet but I'll be thinking about it. A couple of days ago, I picked a date in my food diary that preceded my joining fatsecret. To that entry I put the typical amounts of food I was eating a day before I started watching my (unhealthy) carbs again. I, of course, noticed immediately that I had been eating at least twice as many calories as I am now and 4-5 *times* the amount of carbs I am now eating a day.

What I noticed today though was this: I am eating right about the same amount of fat and protein now as I was then. The *only* thing I am eating less of is carbs. That cements to me the things I learned years ago about my insulin resistance, insulin levels, pcos, and what carbs can (and will) do to me.
Another thing is I am eating more servings of vegetables now than most days over the last five years. Of course the quality of my food will further increase once I am able to use my stove again and actually work in my kitchen (prep work) and clean the kitchen again.

I wanted to incourage you in this journey. I have repeated and foucused on Roman 12: 1-2 and it has helped me when things get difficult. It talks about our bodies being a living sacrifice to God and also talks about the renewing of our minds. I have clung to this for many difficult years and have come out Victorious.
