It sure has been a while...

First, I am very excited to see all of you corresponding through this site - I know when I first started this blog, there was and still is very little information out there.

Here's an update:

When I first started this blog, I wanted to use it to document the experience of taking these weevils not just for myself, but to include my observations of my family experiences as well.  I never really was a "blogger" so to speak; and keeping up with it for as long as I did was pretty amazing lol.  I started this conversation to keep myself accountable and active in the process.  After the first cycle of taking the Weevils, I got an offer to move to the east coast.  I made the decision to stop taking them on the account that I didn't want the added stress of keeping the Weevils alive while I was in transition.  My father and I drove across country and it was a wonderful experience - however I never went back to taking the Weevils to this day.  As you can see I haven't posted in this blog either!!  I know there are emails that should have come to me but I disabled the notifications and if you could only see the surprise when I logged in - well it certainly was humbling!  I had to write something right away so forgive me if I am not up to date on the messages :-)

Don't get me wrong; If the circumstances presented themselves I'd do it again.  To be completely honest, I just haven't made the effort.  Life happened and at the present moment I have good doctors and I am trying to eat as little processed foods as I can. I have chosen a paleo/primal way of eating because good health is my focus.  I still have a long way to go - and I have grown to not be upset with myself if I fall off the wagon before I am up to speed.  We all had training wheels before we could ride the bike.  I guess I am mentioning this because whether we take the Weevils to manage our pain, or to take vitamins to supplement the nutrients our bodies need; the real change comes when we take the action to not go back to those old habits that keep us from growing and getting better and healthier.

As I mentioned earlier I will catch up on all your postings and I will keep this blog active so you all can continue to use this as a community place to trade info, stories, etc.  For now, I want to thank you again for being helpful to those who are looking for answers.

Peace and Love,

Patricia
