Cancer Survivor Struggeling to Lose the Weight

I do not have or have not had cancer, but in the last year have had MANY MANY crazy health problems and have done a lot of research to try to help heal myself and get healthier. My biggest discovery has been my food allergies. I had a blood test done to see if I had food allergies and found out I am allergic to wheat/gluten, ALL dairy, beef, sunflower seeds and brewer's yeast. Since cutting out all the food for the last couple months, my weight loss has been a bit easier, I feel so much better inside, my acne has cleared up, my chronic eczema has mostly gone away (the eczema was destroying my life!), etc. I'm not saying it's a cure-all, but it might be something to think about. I had gained 40 lbs in a matter of months because of the stress my body was being put through with my job and then eating all the food that was literally toxic to my body. I lost some weight by eating better food, but was still eating dairy and beef and whole wheat foods, etc. until I found out about my allergies. Since then, my system seems to be much happier.

I hope this helps in some small way. Good luck to you and keep up the good work! It sounds like you're working really hard to take care of yourself!
