For all of July with the exception of one and a half days I was headache free and my eczema was on the mend. I now have given into some of the foods I stopped eating and guess what headaches are returning and my eczema is going crazy. I wasn't going totally crazy on the junk either I was just having I small portion but even that small portion is to much, I'm not saying Ill never have a treat again but I am saying I'm more aware of what it does to me. I absolutely hate migraines and eczema both are just so irritating Id much rather not have them. So conclusion Junk= headache and eczema oh and zits too......not worth it.
So woke up feeling much better and ready to start the day. Ate really healthy and said no thanks to a lot of things unlike last night but I feel I didn't go over board I did say no thanks to cup cakes and that in it self is a win!!! So I got the out fit I'm going to wear to my brothers wedding, I know Mom I couldn't wait my friend said everything was going really fast and it was by the time I got there it was well picked thru. By the way I look awful in dresses just plain awful. It would fit really nice on top but the gut part OMG just bad. I actually started laughing out loud in the change room...BAD Dress, BAD Dress! But on the up side to that I have gone down 2 sizes. So I bought this really cute dressy blouse with ruffles its black and I went from a 4x down to a 2x. I also bought pants that are super comfortable as well as stylish and of corse there black as well and I could have gone down to a 2x but they didn't have that size so 3x it was cause it still fit good. Seeing the numbers going down is so awesome I cant even begin to tell you how empowering that is. I also got Jewelry there as well It was buy one get one free and they were all on sale for $5 regular price $15-$19 each got 4 pieces for $10....Score!!! I stopped at two shoe stores looking for the right shoes nothing then had to go into walmart for hot dogs and buns and decide to look in there shoe section and bang found 2 great dress sandals for $10 each another Score one is white and the other is turquoise. Came home only had one hot dog and veggies and dip... pat on the back pat pat pat. So today was a great day hope you all had a fabulous day too.
Cheers!

Christy, that is soooo great! I struggle with eczema too and so the boys and I are trying an elimination diet to find out what food sensitivities/allergies we all have. Matt gets eczema too and Jason has behaviour issues that MAY be food related. The elimination diet is no joke, though....17 days and the first 7 are VERY limited in what you can eat...no sugar, milk, eggs, artificial colours, no wheat or corn...sigh. After 7 days we start adding those back in 1 day at a time and watch for reactions. It's gotta be done when the kids are out of school and I'm off work so I can see the reactions. I'll let you know at the wedding how things have gone; we should be done by then. Cheers! Connie
