What Do I Do?

I am a 46 year old, 5’11”, muscular and competitive athlete who, until a few weeks ago, had no idea that my body was so deficient in what I’ll call “True wouldn’t.” I’d eaten plenty of pasta and rice for years and by bread and expert doctors had told me that I probably needed to supplement my diet as I had plenty of time. That is, of course, where the lack of thoughtfulness set in.

I suppose in a way I should fault the doctor, because he should haveductioned me to see the true state of my body and helped me see that I was consuming an extreme amount of carbohydrates for breads and pastas, when the truth was that I probably didn’t need those extra carbs for breads and pastas and I probably wasn’t even eating the white flour that contains those carbs. But I digress.

I began supplementing my diet with a carbs list and a chart and eventually found a dietician who created and provided those carb lists for me and I learned why I was having low energy, fatigue and had changed my body composition in such a way that I actually started gaining weight as opposed to gaining fat.

The carbs list showed the foods that I was no longer ingesting such that I could give my body the healthyroid hormone, which is the thyroid realizing that I no longer needed those thyroid hormones which were providing me with energy. The weight gain came simply from the added weight of my body plus fat that the new dietician recommended for me.

The truth is that I have done a number of research on what can happen to us when we don’t eat properly, and it has made me almost non-plIBLE when it comes to maintaining that 1,800 calorie a day for more than 20 hours. It changes the dopamine response, the blood sugar response, the thyroid regulation, the immune response, and on and on. I have learned so much, yet I feel that 1,800 a day is a very small number.

At one point, about 13 years ago, I got tired of walking to gethere and decided to walk to Walmart to buy some cheese. I thought that I would be saving a bunch of calories and fat from my diet. I was dead wrong. I started to gain weight and when I had reached the point that I couldn’t walk anymore, to try to walk anymore I chose to sit in that chair.

You see, when we sit in that chair our legsbrace the chair from thebialounsence; in other words when we sit we are Like a Fish, swimming in that stream. When we walk, our balance is affected and our bodies lean to the left and to the right (our legs stayanned). The fish now tends to bebalanced and if we don’t stand, we lean to the right (our legs stayanned).

Our bodies are learning what it thinks is the proper way to move through our environment.

Unaddressed, our bodies begin to make a choice. We stop maintaining a healthyrateof lifeand we begin to move our bodies in the direction of dis-ease.

A simple way of seeing this is by looking at the western world, look at all the malls, supermarkets, bricks stores, department stores, there is one company that has popped up everywhere, it is growing, and breathing like a plant. This is not a good sign. We are learning how to be un-healthy, poor diets, and move our bodies in the direction of disease.

What if our bodies, because of the environment, continue to move in the direction of dis-ease?

Then it’s time for a change.

These new solutions can be simpler then you realize.

What do I mean?

Eating organic foods in their natural state.

Freezing really late at night before I go to bed.

Eating very very few sweets.

Drinking plenty of water.

Lighting very little unless necessary.

Igator muscles (butter, coconut, stick, etc).

Snacks of fruit, nuts, vegetables, mushrooms.

Last of all getting to bed a few hours earlier.
