A silver lining

Almost two weeks into my new eating plan a modified eating plan ala Gillian McKeith's You Are What You Eat (No wheat, meat, dairy, white foods (white rice, sugar or other heavily processed foods)) and I am starting to feel better. I have more energy, which is more like saying I have some energy rather than none. I have no cravings for the foods that I used to crave all the time like cake, cookies or anything with sugar. Infact, my hunger in general has decreased. My pain has decreased slightly overall but there are times during the day when it decreases by two or more points (on a scale of 1 to 10). I don't ache as much in my joints and am enjoying doing what little moving I do during the day. Looking forward to going to the community center and using their pool since they have an arthritis rated pool (above 83 degrees). Other pools tend to be around 69 degrees which just chills my muscles enough for them to tense and the pain becomes unbearable. I am also looking forward to walking around the local marina when the weather is nice. Living in Nevada one never knows when that will be, the weather changes too quickly. Things are looking up!
