take responsibility for my health

Well, recent illness that should have been a day in bed was instead 3 days in bed, complete with fever, and complete apathy for getting better. Miserable. A phone call to my acupuncturist led me to the decision to cut all milk and egg products from my diet..which is so much harder than i thought it would be! I don’t actually drink milk or use it in my cereal, but cheese and butter have stronger roles in my life than i realized when i embarked on this new journey! It’s been only 5 days, and already the results are showing. Clearer skin, more energy, better moods. When my lungs clear up from this last cold, we’ll see…In one month I will give my assessment of the prescription:)

Last week my acupuncturist felt my pulse and gave me a stern look…and reminded me that i can do better on my diet. A week later he can tell the difference! Vegetables really do matter..

went to the acupuncturist today..does that make up for just eating eggs for dinner? ..i tend not to want to tell him when things aren’t good, as if I’m trying to protect him from failing? Perhaps this should be under radical honesty..?
