I thought I could never give up ice-cream until 2 years ago when I read that milk can cause diabetes and going off it can cure it. Its proved to be a little more complicated than that but I have only slipped twice since then on milk products and that was before going raw. Its really amazing that one discipline does lead to another. I never ever in a million years thougt I could give up bread and corn but here I am eating an all raw diet. Its incredible how quickly things can change. I guess in a way I see my diabetes as a blessing because I would have never gotten this oppurtunity to find out all these amazing ways to be healthy and take care of myself without it. And even if I had found all this out I might not have had the discipline to do it. People always tell me Im so strong and they could never do what I do. I tell them I've got 2 choices, be unhealthy and fatigued and take medication for the rest of my life or get healthy and hopefully live medication free. I choose to be healthy. And I've never felt happier or more hopeful in my life. I love this diet! I wish you all the success in the world and remember that you don't have to decide right now whether or not you'll ever eat ice-cream again. Just take it one day a time. Bye!
