Update: Wheat Belly Diet

Hi Everyone,
I hope you all are doing well. I thought I would give you all a little update about how the Wheat Belly diet is going for me.

I honestly think it is going pretty well. I have been on this new lifestyle change for almost three weeks and it has not been as hard as I thought it would be. I have started to cook or at least earn how to cook because some of the meals my family eats, I cannot have. It is a good learning experience. I feel more open to trying new foods that I never would expect to eat. Also, when my family and I go out, I make sure they have a glutton free menu. For example, when we went out for my brothers birthday, we went to TGI Fridays and most of their food had some type of wheat in it but this one dish which was a shrimp cheese dish did not have wheat in it. It was delicious. Plus if it wasn't for this new lifestyle change then I probably never would have tried that dish and now it is one of my all time favorites.  Also, my local pizza place has started selling glutton free pizza and it is actually really good. I always get spinach, olives, and broccoli as toppings and can I just say YUM. And I don't feel bad about myself for missing out on pizza night because I can have pizza. Just my own kind of pizza.

The biggest realization that I had these past couple of weeks is to just compromise. If you cannot have something because it has wheat in it, then make something that does not have wheat in it but that you like. I think this was a good decision for me to do this diet because it helps me learn about different foods and how to compromise foods. But also learning how to cook and bake which I never thought I would be able to do without burning something down. But luckily I have not done that yet. :D

So I hope some of you will join me on this journey and please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.

Carpe Diem,
Sophia

Invisible Illness Series: Support

Hello everyone! Today's blog post is going to be a little emotional but I feel like it will probably help so many of you all. One thing I have noticed with having Endometriosis is how many people just do not get it. They do not understand why I am constantly in pain. They think that the pain that I am experiencing on a daily basis is something that everyone experiences. It is not. People who suffer from chronic pain can go hours at a time in excruciating pain that honestly is indescribable. And even then if people physically see you in pain, they do not care.They just think you are either faking it or being over dramatic. Well to those people I have this to say, you should be ashamed of yourself. Why would anyone fake being in agony for hours at a time. Why would anyone feel the need to be stuck in bed for a long time just because they just "don't feel like getting up". I have a feeling that many of you have experienced people like that in your life. Well let m

Review: Victoria Secret Seamless Racerback Bra

Hey everyone! So I never see anyone reviewing sports bras! So today I decided to review one! Now I HATE sport bras. Every sports bra that I have ever tried either suffocates my boobs (TMI...sorry!) or they are way to lose to support my boobs when I am working out. Now I am addicted to Victoria Secret Pink. I absolutely love every thing they have. I own way to much stuff from them so when I saw this new sports bra, I had to try it. It is the  Victoria Secret Pink Seamless Racerback Bra ! First Impression: I got it in the tie dye color in blue. When I first got it in the mail, the first thing I thought was how soft it was. Then I saw that it was a very thin material. I thought it was going to be a little thicker like most sports bras. I was kinda afraid that it will show my nips. (TMI!) I got it in a medium. First Time Wearing It: The first time I wore it was not to work out but to school. I got so many compliments from my friends. They all thought it was different because of

Book Review: Bones Never Lie by Kathy Reichs

Another book review!? Yes! Today I have another book review for you all and it is going to be a good one! So this novel was one of the galleys that my mom got for me at BEA. (Book Expo America) Just a warning is that this novel does not come out until September 23. But you can always pre-order it if you are interested. The novel is called  Bones Never Lie by Kathy Reichs .  Now I will give you a little background about why I read this book. When I was in 6th grade, my Biology teacher put on the show Bones for us to watch. And from that day to 10th grade, I wanted to be a forensic anthropologist. Now to this day I love forensics, I think it is super fascinating but I am just not good at biology. Anyways, the show Bones was based off of Kathy Reichs and her life as a forensic anthropologist. Now a forensic anthropologist is someone who studies human bones and  figures out what happened to that person. How they died, if they were murdered, did they have any health problems, stuff
