When I was younger I could tell a big difference in the way I felt within days of changing my diet. Now I don't feel much different after four months, but I'm seeing positive changes with some of my health issues so I'll probably feel a lot better, eventually. I was just too lax a little too long. Or too self-destructive, more like.

Other people have said I'm looking better, though, and have noticed that I'm losing weight. At my last visit my doctor told me I was "beautiful" and he's never been that effusive! He said that whatever it was I was doing, keep doing it, just so long as it was legal, moral, and ethical. (Ha. You betcha it is.) I just smiled. I'm not going to tell him until *after* my blood tests next month. When I shock him with my great cholesterol he'll have no choice but to agree I'm doing the right thing. He's pretty cool, though. I think he'll be fine with it.

Yeah, I only eat maybe one fruit or vegetable a day. So I'm lazy like that too. :)
