new diet
Hey Julie! Glad to see your new blog! Sounds like you're strong and ready to progress even further.
I had a question about your new program. A couple months back, we chatted briefly about our similar predicaments and adrenal fatigue. When I saw that your diet was very low in "real" carbs (whole grains, squash, etc.), I mentioned that Schwarzbein recommends that you don't cut out all carbs 'cause it's hard on the adrenal system. At the time, you said that your doctor and everything you'd read hypothesized that carbs in the form of vegetables were sufficient.
So I am just curious as to whether your doctor had a change of mind, whether you weighed what you read with what Schwarzbein has written and decided to go another path, or what?
Also, you mention that hormonal balance may be off. I guess you've had your sex hormones tested? Can I ask where the imbalance is? (Asking to compare it to my own imbalances.)
Thanks, and Very best wishes to you,
Laura
