I’ve known about the GAPS diet for several years and with several promptings and some learning, I am about to try it for myself. I have several reasons but a big one is that while I’ve had great improvement from the HG eating plan I’m on along with my fibromyalgia treatment (which now I really don’t have FM symptoms anymore!! 🙂 ), I feel that after 6 years of this eating plan, I should be much better in regards to my blood sugar issues and not so sensitive.
I’ve done a lot of reading and gotten good help from a few friends that have either tried it or are on it now.
Help for getting started and for recipes I’m also getting her daily emails & using her 30-day ebook. Quite helpful!
Last week I worked on getting some food ready for me. I made:
- 6 quarts of chicken stock
- 6 quarts of beef stock
- 10 or so bags (indv servings) of chicken
- 13 bags of roast beef
- homemade sour cream (verdict is still out)
- homemade sauerkraut (still sitting)
I think that because I’ve been carb-free and sugar-free already that I’ll move quickly through the first few phases. And my hope in the long-run is that I’ll be healthier/better for doing this and will be able to eat more at the end of GAPS than I can now on my HG eating plan.
Here’s to a cup of broth… CHEERS!
and sew on...
