I can honestly say that eating a plant-based diet, with absolutely no dairy, is one of the best things I have done for myself in a VERY LONG time. What started out as a thirty day search to discover if removing all meat and dairy products from our beautiful Antonio’s diet could help reduce his seizures and self-injurious behaviors has turned into wonderful self-discovery of my own eating habits. After 45 days I have lost 12 pounds while still eating like a hippopotamus. I am getting much better sleep and no longer take any sleep aides. I definitely have more energy and the swelling in my left knee has significantly gone down. I feel much lighter, and more flexible. I feel happier. I feel less stressed and… I almost look more handsome. If you, or anyone you know, might benefit from what I am experiencing please pass my testimony on. If you are looking for an “accountability buddy” I am here to help. Believe you me…I enjoyed a great medium rare steak, juicy cheeseburgers, and carne asada burritos with the best of them but this plant based diet is really working for me now and sometimes doing what seems like “unrealistic” is easier than doing the “realistic”.
P.S: If you have never tried cactus, you don’t know what your missing. Super Great Power Plant.
