    I mean so many other plans/lifestyles I have been on did NOTHING...so I was so doubtful and now I am so hopeful..........I started PB 2nd week of August and today I am down 13 pds..........I haven't even been able to workout due to illness the last 2 weeks(been still trying to list heavy) my reg med CW dr said with my thyroid and my insulin Resistance and hormones that I wouldn't ever be able to lose weight! uffffffdah! I will show her! in a new size pants..still have a ways to go but I am on the "right" Track for once in my life!! I had a huge juicy steak tonight and a huge salad with tons of lovely raw veggies and squash from my garden sauteed in coconut oil......what can be better then that? yeee haw xoox Darlene

    still pretty tired and then my ulcer is on the flare...it is my fault I was eating ibuprofen and aleve like candy due to back pain (darn it) so back on Nexium for a bit and taking natural things for it too but it sure hurts....going to ND tomorrow to re-check titres in blood since I am all done with anti-viral meds now. I will be glad when I don't feel totally wiped out any more...this too shall pass.
    thank you for asking, your so sweet! I am trying so hard to focus on the positive! :)
    MY ND dr is happy I am primal! she don't eat sugar or grains either! whooo hoo

    Do you eat fermented foods? I think it'll help with increasing gut flora especially since you're taking a lot of medication. Maybe you can eat some sauerkraut.

  20. That's just too cool Darlene!

    BTW, I 'tripped' onto an old High School alum who eats the way we do, although I'm not even sure if he even knows about the "Primal Blueprint", but he's a celiac, so I'm sure that pushed him in the 'right' direction.

    Anyway, he directed me to this clinic ( http://web.mac.com/drjeannette/Designed_Clinical_Nutrition/Welcome.html ), saying that he's searched for someone like her the past 22 years. Based on what he's talked to me about nutrition and correct eating, I'm extremely impressed with his choices and knowledge, so I'm going to make an appt with this Dr./ Clinic because I'm sick of CW MD's and lackluster ND's.

    I'll let you know how it goes!

    oh cool I will ck it out...yes I have fired Dr H pretty much and just see the ND in Buckley...I will ck out the link..thank you ...
    I am feeling horrible today.............lots of stomach pain. I wonder how long till the ulcer meds kick in?

  22. Yeah, I went to that ND in Buckley. She's pretty cool, but didn't do the 'diagnostic' on your body like this clinic seems to specialize in.

    I want someone to ANALYZE me and tell me where I'm lacking and what will help balance that out and it sounds like this place is just the ticket.

    I think more important than a doc being right or wrong is, is he or she willing to learn? When you are living proof that they are wrong in their nutritional comprehension, what is his/her reaction?

    It will be interesting to see what Mom's doc says next week. He is an absolutely wonderful physician and human being, earthy, not rigid, caring. For instance, the drugs Mom takes at bed time, he says, "I'd lose my license if I prescribed that 'cocktail', but if it works for you, have at it!"
