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
