At Lake Travis in Austin Texas
Two years ago it was interesting to find out about being highly allergic to Gluten, wheat, barley, rye and oats.
It's a genetic auto-immune disorder called Celiac. There was a complete denial for two years thinking "oh yeah, watch me still eat gluten and wheat now and then, no need to change much, nooooo problem!"
What a rude awakening the journey has been! haha!
It's taken a real change of HABIT to turn a lifestyle around after a lifetime of drinking beer, eating pizza, bread, pasta, cheese burgers, chicken friend steak, fast food and start eating properly for good health OR ELSE according to our holistic doc who said Sue's gonna die if she does not change her HABITS!
Ok, that got my immediate attention!
Since changing those HABITS and lifestyle I'm not only feeling so much better, not as sick after eating a meal, and lost over 25 lbs, keeping it off and STILL eating foods I love above with some modifications to Gluten Free
AND we're all
eating a lot more healthy foods too like more fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, only made out of rice, potato and sorghum flours which I've actually come to love even better and these foods actually give you more energy and stamina and are much easier on your insides!
The big fat stomach issue is gone, I'm down over 3 pants sizes and feel better and better when not eating wheat or fast food, junk food, etc.
Changing habits has taken a lot of hard work, reading every label, having to buy a lot of GLUTEN FREE labeled foods, making homemade sauces and dressings, etc., and it's been difficult when out around other people, especially traveling when people do not understand that even just a little gluten can kill someone with this disorder. Even contaminated kitchens and food on a buffet can become ticking time bombs.
Once you do change and form good habits though you never want to go back to the old ones that slow you down and hold you back from success!
The whole family is wanting to eat this way now including our 16 year old athlete son who suggested this habit lifestyle change for himself!
Check out these quotes from some well known leaders on creating better life changing habits!
HABITS
"The individual who wants to reach the top in business must appreciate the might of the force of habit and must understand that practices are what create habits. He must be quick to break those habits that can break him and hasten to adopt those practices that will become the habits that help him achieve the success he desires." -- J. Paul Getty
"First we make our habits then our habits make us." -- Denis Waitley
"Good habits are as addictive as bad habits, and a lot more rewarding." -- Harvey Mackay
"When you do the wrong thing, knowing it is wrong, you do so because you haven't developed the habit of effectively controlling or neutralizing strong inner urges that tempt you, or because you have established the wrong habits and don't know how to eliminate them effectively." -- W. Clement Stone
Jim Rohn says today's the day . . .
. . . that could turn your life around!
