Food4TheSoul,DandelionTea,&CRYSTALS Quite a few months back, I saw my Primary Physician for the usual blood works ad Infinium. She advised me that my cholesterol level was too high and wanted to prescribe medication. I told her that I did not want the medication and would prefer to find a lifestyle change to fix it. She suggested Red Yeast Rice and drumroll.................. weight loss. I picked up the Red Yeast Rice and started researching about dietary changes. I was surfing the web and connected with a XII group that deals with food addictions. The suggestion was no sugar, flour, or wheat products. There are no face to face meetings in West Virginia. There are telephone groups, an internet group, and a virtual group with live meetings on zOOm. It is recommended to not skip meals but I am used to intermittent fasting. So earlier this week, I wasn't feeling well. My digestive system is temperamental. I didn't eat the first day and the second day, I stayed on a liquid diet. On the third day, I WANTED Steak. Eggs, Hash Browns with Ketchup. I drove to the local Breakfast Diner and ordered Rib Eye Steak, Two Eggs, and No I didn't want grits with them. I wanted to be BAD and have Hash Browns with Ketchup. Skip the biscuit with butter and jelly. (This diner is famous for having the best) I asked for Hot Tea, I ditched the Tea Bags and replaced them with my own Dandelion Tea. They were out of the Rib Eye Steak! Dang! I order another protein. (Not Bacon!) I left the diner and drove to Food Lion to purchase some ribeye steaks. Now I can measure them and cook them at home. I am looking forward to the doctor's visit next week. I am reasonable certain that her scales will show a significant weight loss and hopeful that the blood works will find an acceptable cholesterol level.   Abracadabra  |

Good luck with the doctors visit, Star, hope all your hard work has paid off. I know how difficult it is to keep to a diet.

Too many doctors, and people, want a pharmaceutical to work a magic cure, when often a lifestyle change and certain natural remedies will do the same thing without the side effects. We have taken some of Joe's medications away, due to side effects, and so far, his doctors have not offered any objections. We have some issues to discuss with the doc in a couple weeks, and want to pursue some natural paths instead of a medication. Hope you doc appointment turns out well. Be a prism, spreading God's light and love, not a mirror reflecting the world's hatred.

Good luck with the doc! Hope your blood work shows plenty of improvement from your last visit. I only eat two meals a day, I never was one to eat when I woke up in the morning, my first meal is around 2 in the afternoon, my next is around 8 PM. Whatever we are used to, to each his own.
