No, I'm not gaining weight--if anything I'm slowly dropping. I have osteo-arthritis and while I'm very thin, I do not want extra mass to haul around, weigh me down. I'd rather be a rack then carry around a burden!
Yes, I have a severe vata imabalance. I've added serious protein to my diet. Tons of warming herbs/spices. I'm eating egg whites and lean fish as well as tons of veggies/greens. I feel physically and mentally stronger with the serious protein upgrade. I'm eating intuitively, listening to my body. I have eliminated fruit and starchy vegetables/grains. Carbs tend to make me extra anxious, which is the very last thing I need. Note: I am neither advising nor recommending anything, merely reflecting on how I feel due to diet changes. I suppose you could call it a modified BARF diet.
Like you, Tinkerbelle, I'm doing my own thing, or in 'rebel mode' as I like to think of it. Also, like you, I take intensive enzymes and that makes a significant difference.
I'm curious re: what you are eating and doing differently.
Kate.
