    Here we goes. At first I just lost quite a bit of weight and got sick, that's because I was not eating enough. Once I changed that I felt a lot better, my body reached my happy weight and my skin is so much better!

    I gained weight. But I have an autoimmune endocrine disorder (Hashimoto's Thyroiditis), so before I was diagnosed I could have eaten 200 calories a day and gained weight.

    I think I'm the exception that proves the rule.

    Yes!!! I feel so much better!! ***TMI Alert**** So skin is much clearer and doesn't look so dull. Overall i feel a lot lighter. I don't mean weightloss lighter, but just better...it's hard to explain, but there is a definite difference. Eating a meat filled diet I had horrible problems with acid reflux, irritable bowel....severe cramps and bleeding were really common for me. That is gone. Previously, eating was just something that would cause pain and discomfort. Now it's actually enjoyable and I feel fine afterwards.

    The lighter thing. Yes! It's like meat clogs your digestive track. Haha.
