Guest guest Posted August 2, 2002 Report Share Posted August 2, 2002 Dear , Good for you!!! You go girl!! I started a fruit and veggie diet 7 months ago. Before starting my diet I was completely bedridden and had been bedridden for over 2 years. It has literally changed my life!!! It took a complete lifestyle change but now I am completely symptom free!!!! What I did in addition to the diet change was: started walking 2 miles everyday (at first), started a good excercise program, drink lots and lots of water, get at least 20 minutes of sun and fresh air daily, and all of that helped with my sleeping. At first I was scared. I had tried numerous things over the years that was suppose to make huge changes in my symptoms. But nothing worked, at least not for very long. I know that many FMS/CFS sufferers have good and bad days. I never had any good days for over 6 years. I was told that it would not progress. But it did progress. Just when I thought it was the worst pain imaginable and could never get worse.....it did. The book I used to help me is called " Back to Eden " by Jethro Kloss. It doesnt deal with FMS/CFS specifically so I just applied all that dealt with my symptoms. And it worked!!! Boy did it work. Please continue on the path you are on. You will not regret it!!! And it will literally change your life!! I will help you anyway that I can, .

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2002 Report Share Posted August 3, 2002 Yep, I thought it was funny too. My kids really thought it was funny. It kept them pretty amused all day. I never went so much in my life!! I can feel the changes already. I must be doing something right!! Re: I'm sick of it and it is time for a change!! DEAR HEATHER IN THE BATHROOM... Sorry, but that was really funny to me...I hope you meant it to be so.

Guest guest Posted August 3, 2002 Report Share Posted August 3, 2002 Hi Mick!! It was one of your posts that really inspired me. I got the book from the library and have been reading it. It is fascinating!! I'm sure in his time, his thoughts were quite controversial. It's a challenge to change my diet in alot of ways. My boyfriend loves his Pepsi and some junk food. My kids eat very well, but you know how kids like junk, too. I doubt I'll ever cut chicken, turkey and pork totally out of my diet. Sometimes, though, it grosses me out to think about what it is. I can't see my boyfriend ever being a vegetarian. So cooking would be a huge challenge. What did you do about your family? Re: I'm sick of it and it is time for a change!! Dear , Good for you!!!

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2002 Report Share Posted August 4, 2002 Hello I am so glad to hear that you got the book! It is an excellent book. It is amazing to me that so many people die everyday from horrible illnesses and the doctors, who should know about proper nutrition, never really help these people. And they die needlessly. About my family. Wow was it hard at first. I never really realized how much crap we ate daily. Many of the things we ate daily I thought was healthy, but boy oh boy was I wrong. I have 3 boys and all of them was absolutely against eating what I ate daily. They wanted no part of it, nor did my husband. Until the boys brought home a flu bug from school and everyone in the house but me got sick. That was really amazing to them as a flu bug before would of sent me to ER and would of put me down for months. That is when they really started paying attention and eating more of what I ate. I knew if I forced them (I have 2 teenagers) they would never come to apperciate proper health and nutrition. Now when they have snacks, they eat mostly fruit and nuts. We do eat meat (chicken, fish and wild game) on occassion but for the most part we consume large quantities of fruit and veggies. When my boys have their own money and we go to the store they will buy crap. I guess I am kind of mean because I always tell them they are only eating poision and if they want I could buy some rat poision, some cleaning supplies, etc and mix it all up for them then they could save their money for something else. They don't find that funny, but it is pretty much the same thing. Regardless of whether your family joins in or not....please do not let it affect your decision. When they see the changes in you. When they get their mom and wife back, they will want to change all on their own. Peace and blessings to you always and forever, , and I will help you and way that I can:) Mick heatherdenise@...> wrote: Hi Mick!! It was one of your posts that really inspired me.

Is a bag of chips worth even an hour of pain? Heck no! And that is what I am going to make myself think about when I get junk food cravings. I'm going to start walking and getting myself decent sleep. I made up herbal teabags last night to drink before bed. I am bound and darn determined that my life will start getting better today! No drugs or anything else the doctors said to do is working, so why not try this? Sure can't hurt me! Anyone out there trying this? Or would like to join me in trying to heal ourselves? (who is headed to the bathroom....again!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
