Update!

Hello all, it is week 8 today, I am still amazed at the changes! Going to bed like a 'normal' person & rising with the sun is just awesome!
I have surprised a few people now! 15kg loss so far and it just keeps dropping on its own.
I have so much more energy! I have slowed on the house cleaning and allowing myself to have 'chill days' I mean, I have been basically bed bound for 2 years straight and now I am up an doing this an that.. So I need to keep telling myself that it is natural for me to exhaust myself!!
My mind is all go, go go! But my body is repairing and I dont understand it all at times so I get abit down and think that PTLS is coming back all over again!
I think in a psychological sense, my brain is 'searching' for that joint pain that it is so use to.. Hence why when I go for a hike or am on my feet all day, resulting in normal 'building muscle' pain, I could swear it is my joints but it isn't.
I am a very small boned woman so the more weight that comes off I think the better it will be, even without PTLS, the weight gain alone would be enough for my joints to act up! But the PTLS made this weight!
I have really been enjoying eating! Food, glorious food!! Mmmmm!
for a whole year all I could eat was 2 poxy crispbreads a day..
Now, I can eat ANYTHING!! Just like beofre PTLS and I am really enjoying it!
My skin colour is definitely back!! My hair is growing so much more healthier and thicker! And wow, it dosent fall out of snap anymore!! YAY!!
There are just so many changes! It is amazing, but it is also scary if that makes sense..
It is like for the past 4 years I have been "somewhere else" and I have awakened again.. It is an emotional roller-coaster at the moment but life is just so amazing!
My smile is real, my zest for life is strong!
My husband has been the best ever support through all of this and has stood through it all with me faithfully, bless him!
