Still going strong

May 24, 2009

My 18 mo labs were good, which is surprising considering how sick I was this winter. My D was a little low, of course, but I'm back on track with that again... seems I can blink and get low D sometimes! Still maintaining 140 +/- so all my docs are happy, and so am I.

Still having some problems with certain foods, but I'm learning my way around them. It's a good thing that I found local farmers who ethically raise their animals free-range or pastured because I've learned that I need to eat meat on the rare side in order not to give myself the foamies. Don't think I'd trust the conventional grocery store stuff not to make me sick, not with all the E. Coli and Salmonella recalls they've been having lately. I like being able to know the farmer and butcher, to see how the animal is raised and slaughtered... it really puts my mind at ease knowing the animal is healthy, raised on a clean farm, not dosed with hormones or antibiotics, and processed with care at a clean local facility.
