Dearest One Marilyn,

Yes, it is true it can happen and does.

This is only my first week, but I had to share two things that are happening here with me. The first one is--I MADE MAYONNAISE!!! Yeah, I know--not a big deal, right? Well I honestly had never tried it, and didn't believe it would come out just like our favorite brand (which contains sugar). Well it came out GREAT! I am thrilled with myself. I made a wonderful shrimp salad!

Second thing is that I have begun to noticed teeny changes in my body and the way it works. Actually, it DIDN'T work! I had a VERY hard time changing positions, or standing up from sitting or lying down--my muscles just didn't want to cooperate. They felt "locked" and tight. I felt like a 100 year old invalid--at half that age! I actually had to manually reposition my leg sometimes. In the last day or two, I have gotten up and down without groaning or struggling at ALL! I almost felt like I could jump up and run! No, I didn't do it.

I also shuffled when I walked. No clue why, but I really haven't walked normally in quite some time. I noticed yesterday that I was shuffling MUCH less--hardly at all! And yesterday I picked up things from the floor, bending over like a NORMAL person, without even thinking about it--with no problem at all, THREE TIMES! It's been years since I have bent over to pick something up! I usually shoved whatever it was with my foot, or asked my kids to get it.

WHOA! What's this? Who is this person? And this is just the first week! Could this really be happening, or am I just having a somewhat better week for no known reason? Could grains really be the reason I was functioning so poorly? Just had to share. Marilyn

Feeling the pinch at the grocery store? Make meals for under $10.
