I have to admit that I feel that my body betrayed me. With MS it just does not behave the way it did and I don’t really like it. But somewhere along the way I betrayed my body. I will begin the work of changing that today.
When I was diagnosed and put on such a large dose of steroids my weight went up. My B12 levels dropped dramatically and my weight went up further. I am now afraid to work out, so my weight went up more.
I am starting a slow carb diet. I found it in the Four Hour Body by Timothy Ferriss who was featured on Dr. Oz. He seems to make sense from everything that I know so here it goes.
Four meals a day, 6 days a week. Each meal to consist of a protein, a legume, and a vegetable. No bread, fruit, potatoes (or other white starches). On day 7, as he puts it, Dieters Gone Wild.
Lets see where this goes!
