[Day 32] Week 5

ONE MORE WEEK TO GO!! So, I'm not really being consistent with this diet. These past weeks I would cheat with cheese or with things containing dairy products. But on Sunday...I had shrimp dumplings! My sister came down for the weekend and if we eat out, its a special treat. PLUS, we were eating at our favorite Chinese restaurant...I couldn't resist! So there...I had meat :[ , such a disappointment...lol, jk. What's really hard to resist was the pork and shrimp dumplings AND the general tso chicken! What a temptation! On the flip side, we did get to try other dim sum which were considered vegetarian...so that was cool. Since starting this diet, I found that I would have to find other alternatives to things I would normally get with meat. But when I do discover vegetarian meals (more so when it's organic AND vegan), I get really excited. Just the other day, my young adult small group met at SpecialTea (a tea lounge) by FIU. They sell organic stuff and I really love so...

[Day 23] Week 4

Where did week 3 go? LOL, I just forgot to write a post during that week...but no worries, nothing much has changed. The only thing is that my pain from my joints has decreased and it is probably because I took Enbrel on Friday night. However, the only pain I'm feeling (up until now) is the pain on my left hip. It's kinda awkward to walk a times because this is probably the first time I'm had pain there. This week on the diet has not been going so well. I seem to keep cheating every week. Usually it's cheese or wheat with gluten in it. Since last week, my mom has been telling me to follow the diet strictly...but it's so hard. Monday night my dad decided to make himself and my brother a sub sandwich with this particular meat. I'm not sure what it was but it comes in a package and you just cook it. The aroma filled the house and my mouth was salivating. I wanted meat so bad! I thought that after 3 weeks you don't crave meats anymore. >sigh< I think it...
