Wheat, weightloss and bipolar disorder

This is a picture of a lady that walked into my salon about one year ago. I did a small post about her earlier in my blog to. Now she has written me a little update from how she is doing now. One year after slowly cutting out wheat, starches and sugar.

Here is what she is saying:

Here is a picture of my favorite skirt, it's now useless. I used to use it several times a week but no more.

I suffer from bipolar disorder and after I stopped eating wheat my mood is a lot more stabile.

There was a period I treated my self a piece of toast on Sundays, because it had been so good all week. Soon I learned this was not a prize, for a while I was wondering why I felt so depressed on Sunday nights, I've never been a person that's not looking forward to a new week.

But then it became clear, just gotta stop that breakfast!

I have way less mood swings and I'm convinced that this lifestyle/diet has so much more to say for my illness than I could ever imagine before I became conscious on it and changer my diet.

An other positive thing is that my sugar cravings, like chips and so on are way smaller. Some weekend I buy sweets just from an old habit, but it can stay in my pantry for weeks because I just don't feel like it.

She also adds that she is still "just" down 13 kg, but has given up on the scale as the tape measure is showing results and week by week she notice the changes in her body. So that's way more fun. 

It's fun for me to see results in people that I speak to, and it feels good to somewhat have been able to help people feel better.

Proud of you lady! Keep up the good work.
