Heavy Metal Fan?

Recently I discovered that I have a heavy toxicity of heavy metals.  It has been been causing me extreme fatigue and memory loss.  A friend mentioned to me that eating Cilantro helps in Chelation therapy.  Intrigued, I did a search for more info and found this website. http://www.healthy-journey.com/chelation-therapy-food-and-supplements

Check it out. It is loaded with information to improve your health.  If you have amalgam fillings in your teeth, or drink sodas from a can, or use antiperspirant, you may have this issue.  One of the other unhappy side effects is difficulty with weight loss.  The body stores heavy metals in our fat to protect us from them. Then when you try to lose weight the body holds on to the fat because when you break down the fat they metals dump into your system.  Wow! God made our bodies smart!

I feel better about my weight problem knowing this.  I am going to include the foods recommended( in the article from the above website) into my diet and I will report to you how it goes.  I truly expect a shift in my weight.

Sadly, heavy metals are found in high concentrations in fish.  Be sure to do your homework about where the worst problems are.  I have heard that China and India are two of the worst water polluters. I am no longer buying fish imported from those countries.

And...sniff, sniff, sniff...I am giving up my Hanson diet Ginger Ale....sniff, sniff, sniff.....

Day 30!! True Confessions!

So.  I am working out, walking/jogging faithfully, eating all the right things and week four comes.  I get on the scales, fully expecting at least a 5 pound weightloss.  Ahhhhhhhhrrrrgggggg! I have gained 2 pounds!!!!!!!

I moaned and groaned about it at the healing center yesterday, and was blessed to have good friends who listened, and encouraged me, and prayed for me.  But.....I woke up today, fully expecting to continue my angelic behavior, then got in my car to go to Austin.  To a prayer/healing meeting.  To be a support to my good friend.   To be this wonderful friend.   And then I saw it!! The Golden Arches!

I am glad none of my friends or loved ones saw my crazed left turn from the right lane as I surged across four lanes to get a fix!  A sausage, egg, cheese  Mc-griddle, with hash browns!!  Virtuously, I took my coffee black. 

Even as I am scarfing down the McGriddle, I am apologizing to the Lord!  Ha! He had the last laugh!  They forgot to put the sausage in!  :)) 

Now, the end of the day draws near, and I have to say,  I feel awful!  The fat and chemicals are making me feel lethargic and I realize, with joy, that I have lost the craving!   I think I am cured.  (This remains to be seen!)  For now I will revel in this feeling. 

I will not worry about those two pounds...probably muscle anyway!   I will arise in the morning and do my morning run down my favorite country lane.  And I will ask God about the food tomorrow....He picks stuff that really makes me feel GOOD!!!! 

Never give up!  Never Surrender! ♥
