Nicole, your thoughts about wanting to walk better totally resonated with me. I've been on the diet 6 months now. I am thankful that my mood is stable - that I sleep a little bit better - that I'm no longer having days where I feel I'm one step away from paralysis. Yet, I too, want to walk better. I've had no change there. I stay on the diet, not only for the positive changes I've experienced so far, but for the fact that it's so healthy. Low in saturated fat, low in sugar, lots of vegetables, variety. I wouldn't think that this diet could be bad for anyone. (I wish the rest of my family would join me!) I also stay with it because it gives me hope - something I have not found with any other treatment. Hang in there and know that you are not alone.
