And in the end…

So, I’m retiring Good With Cheese.

It’s been a tough decision, but honestly, this chapter of my little life’s journey is over.  I need a fresh start, and I need it away from the these months and months of posts.

I’m exploring new things these days, new ways of eating (not dieting, mind you – just eating more whole foods and trying to really nourish my body) and new ways of working out, and I want to talk about all that without feeling the shadow of my past disordered behavior hovering in the background.

I’ve started a spankin’-fresh blog that I’m going to use to chronicle my new experiences (up first: what the hell do I do with this millet now that I’ve got it home?).

To those of you who offered your advice and support and kindness over all these months, I can only say thank you, thank you, thank you. I wish you ten-fold the healing and peace I have found.

The GWC leg of my journey is over, but happily, I have many more miles to go.

    Thank you for having had this blog, and THANK YOU for the farewell – it’s always nice to see where people are heading when they transition away. I don’t know if I’ll be following your new blog – I can see that it’s right for you, but reading about some types of aggressively healthy habits can be triggering for me, so I’m going to proceed with caution. However, I really appreciate the insights that you’ve shared here, and I’m wishing you all the best going forward.

    Congratulations on the new blog!

    I’d like to second the notion of keeping this blog up so that we can re-read your older posts. I found many of them to be hugely inspiring.

    Here’s to growth and new directions!

    I’m sad because this is one of my favorite blogs, and helped me a lot at a tough time. I’m happy because I will read your new blog!

    you can cook millet 2 to 1 in milk like you do rice (with a little more stirring so it doesn’t scorch) or water. try googling medieval millet recipe!

    Best Wishes

    Пора переименовать блог, присвоив название связанное с доменами :) может хватит про них?
