Change in my face!

Monday, July 23, 2012


I was flicking through some old photos last night, I had to share the huge change in my face, it's not always about the body! My eyes were being swallowed by the fat and I could barely crack a smile :( That was in 2008, fast forward four years which you all know the history and if not feel free to read my story here: http://primaljourney.blogspot.co.nz/p/before-and-after.html

I don't think I've ever smiled so much in my life as I do right now, the braces are also making a huge difference to my confidence and they aren't even off yet!  I saw my dentist the other week and all is going well, the top should be off just before Christmas and the bottom in February 2013.  The changes have been huge, I no longer grind my teeth, I can breathe through my nose and my jaw shape has changed quite a lot, almost like a mini facelift not to mention how much more I'm smiling now!  It's been tough, painful and has cost me a small fortune ;) Worth all the pain and every penny spent!

  1. It always amazes me how much younger people look while following the Primal way of eating...
    and your new teeth are going to be amazing - that is a decision you will never regret.

  2. I agree with Janet, its not just weightloss on primal. Theres some deep regeneration going on. Cutting out the degenerating things and adding in the healthful lifegiving foods must be it. Michelle you are stunning! So happy for you and grateful to you for all you share!

    1. Hey Jess! Yes I do just drink water mostly, I have a sodastream so I make sparkling water, or I drink decaf coffee with cream (sometimes high fat milk) or herbal teas :) Thanks for the lovely comment!
