I’ve accomplished two months on this plant-based lifestyle. My eye is still clear, my clothes are looser and my allergies are better than they’ve been in 20 years! I take a tiny Loratadine<\/em> daily, when everything is in full bloom. However, in the past this just wasn’t enough if I sat on the soccer field, clipped bushes or cut the grass. Here I am, outside enjoying spring without any added reaction, WOHOO!<\/p>\n

I’m amazed at how smoothly meals are running from breakfasts of: hot tea and kale\/spinach & banana\/berry smoothies, to a mid-morning porridge of 2Tbl. ground flax and chia with stevia. Lunch: a Big salad (quickly thrown together in the early morning rush) and \u00a0snack: a “protein-ball” (almond butter, ground chia, oatmeal & raisins). Dinners vary a bit: heavy on cooked veggies with some kind of beans or a grain (like quinoa or brown rice). Dessert favorite by far: fruit ice-cream (just frozen fruit& water, blended).<\/p>\n

It’s all very tasty to me and something I actually crave. My son, recently leaned on the counter and commented, “It’s just amazing that someone can change their eating habits over the course of a month.”<\/em> Hah, I guess I’m walking proof. It’s taken a good bit of experimentation to pick out what really works for me, but I’m determined and it’s paying off.<\/p>\n

My life in general has been like that. God seems to use this formula time and again. He shows me what needs to change, then offers a hopeful solution. I try, sometimes fail, but I keep on learning. Through each experience I gain new wisdom. these custom-made lessons, bring me closer to becoming more like Jesus. Whether something big or small, looking to Him has proven: God never fails.<\/p>\n
