Projection is pretty notable in others. <br /><br />I think by eating foods that were meant to fuel the body... that everything lines up. Plus I think that it's the best thing you can do to prepare for creating a baby, taking care and living fully in your family relationships. Thanks for blogging about this great topic. Giving up grains to add in more nutrients can't be wrong... :) Karen PKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06454945489632370863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1058442233602410874.post-43099424022452013262014-08-03T12:34:36.678-04:002014-08-03T12:34:36.678-04:00I think that the different stages of life have dif...I think that the different stages of life have different priorities, which is why I'm super glad we have people of all ages posting about what works for us.

That was my Mother, at first. She has become more open to this way of eating but not enough to really give it a go. But enough to accommodate me every time I visit :)Nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11133209982557200052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1058442233602410874.post-59527313637212048222014-08-01T16:23:45.041-04:002014-08-01T16:23:45.041-04:00Enjoyed reading your post Jeanette - thanks.

I still meet a lot of new people and have a lot of new situations: new people at school, new job, new friends. So lots of new conversations!

I guess because I'm over 60, and spent close to a year proselytizing, people no longer question me at ALL on what I'm currently eating. Maybe after 2 1/2 years at it, you still get that because you are younger. I don't know. Odd. LOL <br /><br />Occasionally, I get in-laws (well, but in their defense, this was the first time they'd seen me since I went primal) who tried to get me to indulge with them on sweets, but otherwise, no one questions me at all. Weird, huh?Gwenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18386517479350871434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1058442233602410874.post-72865173785488186842014-08-01T09:15:30.945-04:002014-08-01T09:15:30.945-04:00Exactly.

I think about Little House on the Prairie (on this topic) a lot. If we had to grow it, grind it, bake it, we would not have eaten nearly so much in our life. Like we might have had some bread, but maybe would never have had even one cracker. I am very sensitive to grain (and dairy which I put in this same category) too. I think my sensitivity came from over exposure. I have this same issue with sodium (which I got in all that processed). I carried my excess weight in my belly (insulin resistance). I see so many people out there where if they changed WHAT they ate, a lot of those secondary conditions (acne, GI, migraines, female, inflammation, etc) would pretty much disappear. I think I maintain (more easily) BECAUSE I keep those conditions at bay. That is something people have a hard time understanding.<br /><br />I personally do not get into conversations on this topic with anyone in real life. If someone questions what I eat and do not eat, I say - food allergies/sensitivities - and leave it at that. Vickiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05452333714845476967noreply@blogger.com
