Guest guest Posted November 29, 2002 Report Share Posted November 29, 2002 Dear Lynne, I know that it is so hard to change eating habits. diet change will not only improve your gallbladder health, but your overall well being. Perhaps you could join a group that will help you to watch your diet. Support from others is soo helpful. Also, try to only shop when you're not hungry and try NOT to have anything in the house that is not good for you. But DO have plenty of the good food. Find out new ideas for eating. I love celery to munch on. You will see that after three weeks it iwll be so much easier. And if you " fall off the wagon " , don't feel guilty or weak. Just correct your eating habits as soon as you can. We all have set backs, but it's more important how we return to our healthy ways than a small set back. We are all human; not weak.

Guest guest Posted November 29, 2002 Report Share Posted November 29, 2002 Lynne, I fully understand your situation. I have had vague health problems all my life, and started using aspartame in the '80s - so much so that I was thrilled to see it come out in the large bulk jars!!! I guzzled iced tea in the summer sweetened with it - what a mistake!!! My poor nervous system. Of course, everyone should know by now that aspartame makes you gain weight. I decided that I should not be continuing on the aspartame and went on an almost NO FAT diet - wrong again. I lost back down to 124 (5'6 " ). That released toxins by the pound from my body that my liver had to deal with, and I got so chemically sensitive and brained fogged that if I did not have a helpful husband, I would have ended up a bag lady, or some such pitiful creature. BTW - you are not old. I am 62 - that's old - hahaha!!! For many years, ice cream, frozen yogurt, etc. was my downfall, even though I have had food cravings as long as I have lived. I determined to just eliminate that one thing from my diet. Many things I would eat once in a while except that one thing. It gave me a goal and one thing to control. It made me feel good to know that I was strong enough to do that one thing for myself. I try to allow myself to have as much food as I want as long as it will make me better in the long run. What it comes down to is figuring out what your most important goal is. For me, I wanted to be of clear mind, and able to go outside of my environment without strong reactions We did the kidney and parasite programs over a year ago and did 7 liver flushes, and my fibromyalgia (pain AND sensitivities) got better. We took a break for a year, and just finished our new parasite and kidney cleanse in preparation for continuing to do more liver flushes. I just had all of my metal-crowned molars pulled (I had 15 three years ago) in preparation for my dentures. I have had a hard time with it even though I went to a dentist who regularly works with chemically sensitive patients, but my brain fog lifted the very week of having all the upper teeth with metal removed. Now I can chelate the metal from my body and clear my liver. Right now, I have no jaw teeth, and a sore mouth, so food is surely not as interesting to me. Try to keep your mind and hands as busy as possible. That truly helps. P. > > I have just started drinking Chanca Piedra tea and now > my bowel movements are almost normal and with a brown > color.
