I'm not sure I had a light bulb type moment but I do know that all of a sudden everything seemed to click. I was becoming diabetic like other members of my family. I was fat and sick and I needed to do something about it. What I knew was that diabetics shouldn't be eating high carb foods so I dropped the sugar and bread and ice cream and the like. I figured why go to a doctor when I knew what I needed to do. Then I read the book "Neanderthin" by Ray Audette, one of the earlier paleo books. It made sense, eat real food only. Audette had reversed many so called chronic diseases using this approach and I figured I would try it. Surely real food was better for me then junk food. That was the start of this journey for me.
