HI there, How did Tuesday blow by this week without me even knowing it. Sheesh. I’m a day late and I apologize. I did say I was going to chat more about the AIP this week didn’t I? First, what does AIP stand for? It is short for Autoimmune Protocol. It is an eating protocol used to help [...]
I’m back, well sort of. It has been a bit of a hiatus although I have been very busy. I had decided that I’m going to go with more of a what is happening at the moment approach to the blogs going forward. I think my lessons and learnings through my classes while helping others are the best [...]
