Choosing to Eat Wisely

Good Morning or Good Afternoon or Good Evening, 
this post should take approximately four minutes to read from start to finish.

“What does it mean to you for eating wisely? What does it mean to a immediate relative for eating wisely? 
What does it mean to a friend for eating wisely? 

I am sure that all of us LOVES eating food, well who doesn’t love eating food? Food is so good but food can also be so harmful. Most people experience limitations of what they can actually eat without getting them sick because they have either food allergies or dietary needs or both of food allergies and dietary needs, or they’re expecting. 

For an example; I know that I have noticed a lot that I had several major symptoms of celiac disease as growing up. I did not say anything to my parents because I thought it was just a part of growing up and thought it was normal. 

I felt those celiac disease symptoms after eating my lunches at school when I went to school, and I always needing to go to go public toilets after eating fast foods. I have experienced bloating, very tired, headaches, abdominal pains, I did not grow tall in the height that I wanted to reach - I hate being short on some days, I did not gain much weight - I was weighing underweight when I was living in Australia, and so forth. 

By the time when I moved to a friend’s house, she cooked some dinner meals that was gluten free. She loves making dinner for me, herself and her Mom. I remembered on Sunday afternoons, she would always make my lunches and dinner. 

"EAT RIGHT. FEEL AMAZING."
Sometimes she would make my dinners while I was employed and busy with working, so I always came home with dinner that was already made for me. Whenever I have consumed the meals that my friend has made for me, my body didn’t felt like it was going to experience celiac disease. 

It helped me to make a decision to become partial celiac disease after moving away from her house. It helped me to get some ideas of what to make for lunch and dinner. I remembered whenever I came and visit my family for dinner, my body was feeling celiac symptoms again. 

It felt so bad. Eventually; I have moved away from Australia to United States, I have made the decision to become fully gluten free to ease my symptoms at all times as possible. I do not feel any symptoms of celiac disease symptoms at all, I do feel celiac disease symptoms whenever I consume any foods that are gluten over here.

I definitely do not see myself back to reality of having gluten foods again because I know my body would get celiac disease symptoms all over again. I don’t want to face that. I am glad that I have listened to my body eventually when I did because I feel so much healthier and better. 

Sometimes some people just make a decision one day to become vegetarian, it takes some commitment to get used to being vegetarian for days that turns into months that turns into years, and haven’t ever changed back to the life that they used to have before becoming a vegetarian. They still find some great ways of getting protein intake.

Sometimes we just make a decision that we should listen to our bodies more for what it needs. Sometimes we have some cravings because maybe our bodies is trying to tell us that we’re lacking of certain foods or vitamins to consume into our daily calories. 

We shouldn’t be needing to force anyone into our diets. Just because a diet works for you, doesn’t always work as effectively or well enough for someone else. You do what is best for YOU. 

Stay Tuned until next time.
