Re: a - , offending foods, treadmills

[Guest guest]

Hi ya . Yes was down for awhile. I used to get warned that

they were closing for

maintenance, but for some reason they stopped notifying us that they are

going down.

I've been loosing messages without 's help! At least we finally

got our computers

networked so that Jimmy & I can both be on at the same time. He was

really cutting into

my internet time!

I've tried the elliptical trainers at the gym and they kicked my butt

big time. It made me realize what

bad shape I am in. I have no stamina at all. Maybe I'll think about

investing in one. A treadmill

is definitely to much impact on my knees. I need to preserve my knee

replacements!

I am not expecting any miracles by the radical changes I've made in my

diet. I just want to

eliminate as many chemicals that I can for the benefit of my immune

system. I've never been

a fan of processed foods, but used some because they are easy. I can't

stop thinking that

if 20% of us have food intolerance and could be completely cured by

stopping the offending food,

that means 60 out of this group wouldn't be sick anymore. That's a lot

of people! To me it's worth

trying. I love the way I'm eating, but I can't say my family is to

thrilled. My son would eat a cow

a day if he had his way LOL! And he'd NEVER eat a vegetable! I miss

dairy a lot. I cheat with

pizza once every other wee, but I used to put cheese on everything.

Yea it makes me sad that walking hurts. If ankles were more successful,

I'd be first in line.

I hope you're feeling better.

hugs,

a
