So last night was our official yeast test but I forgot so I went to the local whole food store today and got one of their mini loaves of home made bread to bring to my wife and kids. My wife is kind of a bread freak. That is probably the one thing that she has really worked hard at and sacrificed for this program. So I surprised her tonight with a loaf of bread. She said she was going to cry. Now we just sit and wait. Hopefully no symptoms reappear. If not then we only have a few days left.
I intend to end the program with another detox which is normal, but I was intending to be the only one because Corinne doesn't need to go anymore time without nursing. Poor Alexis was traumatized as if mama didn't want her anymore. So she is off the hook with this one. I asked the kids tonight just to say I did and they were adamant about doing it again with me. so I guess they will do it as long as they want to. I think mama will be in school by then so it might be interesting keeping them on it. Though last time we didn't have to say anything, they actually motivated us. They are awesome kids.
We were talking tonight about ending the "diet" and we came to the conclusion that even though the program is over, we don't have any intention of changing much of anything. consider it a full lifestyle change. My take is that calling it over will prompt my brain to want to go out and eat everything in site just because it is over. If you make one exception of stuff to go back to, then why can't you make two or three exceptions? Why not just make no exceptions and adopt a whole new lifestyle. We love it, we have learned from it and it has made us more organized and will save us money in the long run. I see no down side. not to mention the health value added. Here's to lives and lifestyles changed forever.
