I'm new to the group but just wanted to share some info with you.

I was reading some of the posts on diet and found some things recommended to be startling at best....

I'm coming from over 13 years working with docs both allopathic and alternative.

It's IMPERATIVE that you get nutrition.. as much as possible. While you're loosing the weight you want your body to be able to heal itself

and build muscle.... muscle (especially from weight training) burns fat...

You don't want to loose your muscle mass and get all saggy, eh?

I highly recommend the book "Protein Power Life Plan" by two doctors...

Eades. It's available on Amazon and at your book store.

You want to feel GREAT while loosing weight, not exhausted and moody.

Since you have a limited capacity for food, there are some things I'd like to mention.

Sugar substitutes are mainly excito-toxins that increase your desire for

sugar... if you must use them, try stevia. I was surprised to see things

like crystal light etc. recommended by a nutritionist....

The following entries are from my experience with highly trained medical

professionals and alternative doctors. I'm in no way prescribing or diagnosing, just giving you my thoughts.

Carbonated drinks should be described as "poisonous". They acidify the

body which lowers your immune response and harbors an environment

for disease, and are highly inflammatory.

Any homogenized milk products have fat molecules that cause damage...

AND cause us to get fat. (not to mention the growth hormone in the milk that will make you fat) Try finding organic non homogenized if possible. Pasteurization doesn't affect the fat effects but just kills some of the benefits.

Use natural fats for cooking such as olive or coconut oil... use butter instead of corn oil margarine.. and use them sparingly. Anything with

corn in it should be avoided. Corn is now almost pure sugar since it’s

genetic alteration.

Sweet fruits are FULL of sugar. I know it's natural, but it's still sugar

and inflames your whole body. When that happens, your body puts its

energy into taking care of the inflammation, which leaves you feeling

"short of energy". Sugars also cause vascular inflammation which signal

Cholesterol to be sent to the vascular system to "scab" over the inflamed areas. Could be bad for cholesterol and blood pressure.

If you have to have fruit, use tart berries.. blueberries especially.

Eating dark green veggies like kale, spinach, greens, etc will help you to

flush out toxins being released from the fat cells as they shrink.

Since it's virtually impossible for anyone to get the proper balance of

nutrition from our mineral deficient food sources (that's even for those

people who can eat normal amounts) it's imperative that you supplement. If you're not FEELING anything from your supplements, you're probably taking some that are not absorbed. Absorption is the key. You SHOULD feel a difference when you take them.

I hope I haven't stepped on any toes, but I just hate to see recommendations that could be toxic. The things that I have mentioned here are backed by tons of research you can find on the internet if

you search.

Traditional medicine does not train doctors in wellness, they are trained in trauma and disease. Many would say that what I have posted is contrary... but I challenge you to do the research yourself.

You've come this far with taking charge of your health, take it all the way. You deserve a life of health, peace and prosperity.

In loving service and gratitude,

Hey Stingy...

Just got to thinking....

Who is going to FEED you in your bubble that you won't share that will have the pee thing figured out soon?

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?????????????

Who eats any more? I mean everything is so dammed toxic!

:Humpfh:

Any way my bubble designer (my DH) says my bubble will have an air lock. Apparently I will have a portable toilet in the air lock that will be removed and sterilised by my slaves, I mean, my family. The will also serve me organic bubble grown food, and double filtered spring Water through the air lock.

Apparently it will also be sound proof.

And locked from the outside.

:pound:

And locked from the outside.

:pound:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

Okay, I gotta do it...

I'm selling the key. Highest bidder!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!

I think you would have to pry it from my DH's cold dead hands. He wants to make sure I stay in there a LONG time!! :help:

ROTFLMAO.... o.k. who decided it needed to be locked? YOU or you DH or the KIDS!

ROTFLMAO.... o.k. who decided it needed to be locked? YOU or you DH or the KIDS!

:confused:

DH! The sod! Claims that the damage I am doing to his bank account is toxic to his environment!

True, especially if the bubble is made of latex.

Ya, there we go again with another issue. MY DD allergic to latex so what do I do for her? And now you talk of toxic pee...lol....

I think we should all run away and becoem mermaids under the ocean, eat only kelp and drink only purfied pixie Water that we find across the shores....becaue anything made by a pixie is SAFE right?? It has to be it's magic.....much like that book maybe??

Oh no, Pixies are really very vicious and dirty creatures. We wouldn't want their Water.

And have you seen our shorelines? Ewwww.

But maybe the Book will show us the way.

See... those were things I was wondering about. For example, my nuteritonist reccomended diet soft drinks... and artifical sweetners instead of suger/honey. But I've been wondering if the chemical alternative really is better. And I was sure that honey had some really good properties to it.

(I just felt like I'm not exactly in a position to question that while I'm at a crucial part of teh weight loss.)

Oh no, Pixies are really very vicious and dirty creatures. We wouldn't want their Water.

MAN---hopes dashed again....what to do, what to do????
