As a woman who suffers from Endometriosis, I have finally come to the point of desperation where I have decided to change my diet. This was a difficult decision for me to make as I absolutely LOVE food…but my pain and exhaustion has brought me to this point in my life where I need to do something.
I am tired, so tired of crying on the floor, watching my boyfriend pace helplessly around our place wishing he could do more to help me other than giving me strong pain killers in hopes it will bring some relief to me. I do not like taking the pain killers, I am so afraid of becoming addicted to these pills that I find myself suffering on a daily basis, refusing to take the pills. But we’ve all had the episodes or attacks, as some call it and there is 2 options. Self medicate at home or go to ER and get a shot of morphine and then get judged by the medical staff like you’re a junkie or just seeking attention.
I started a food blog about 3 years ago so I could share my recipes and my passion for cooking with others. It’s all comfort food, everything we apparently shouldn’t be eating. I have really enjoyed doing this. It is a hobby I do not want to stop, so here I am. I want to make the best of changing the way I eat so I don’t just give it up and revert to my old eating ways and I have found it very difficult to find food that gets me excited to eat. I know I am not alone on this so as I create new meals for myself and my boyfriend, who has dedicated himself to eating clean with me, I will upload and post them. If you wish to join me on this new food adventure, I welcome you to subscribe and follow my blog. I hope this diet change helps me and all of you who are on the same journey.
This blog is a work in progress, so please bear with me while I work on it.
