How to loose Two stone in Three months and put it back on again in Two weeks!!

Update on my life and loves;
Routine; still not there
Diet; Had an amazing detox, lost 2 stone, didn't appreciate how I was feeling. Fell off the wagon and put 1 1/2 stone back on and feeling like poo now.
Meds; Managed to get off my pain killers, Now detoxing from all other meds. In a bad place pain wise so having to take more pain meds
Positive feelings; all gone
Quick catch up

So in December I was staying away for a few days visiting friends. So I took a book my friend gave me called Medical Medium.

I have wanted to try and do a bit of reading lately but can never fit it into my day. Going away seemed like the perfect opportunity to read and it was. Once I started reading I couldn't stop. This book was amazing. It has chapters on several different illnesses and has a list of good foods and Supplements that can help "cure" these illnesses.
The guy who wrote the book believes he has a spirit that talks to him and helps diagnose peoples complaints and tells him what they can do to help get better. Now I have tried so many different things to get better,

  • Gluten free diet
  • Dairy Free diet
  • Detoxing
  • Juicing
  • Medical Medicines
  • Herbal Medicines
  • Acupuncture
  • CBD therepy     
to name a few. So why not this :)
Anything I can do, just to see if it helps, I haven't found a cure yet but I am happy to keep trying and so at this time in my life this book really spoke to me. I couldn't afford everything that was listed in the book for my illness. I was concentrating on 4 main chapters.

  1. Chronic Fatigue
  2. Fibromyalgia
  3. Migraine
  4. Adrenal Fatigue

So what I decided to do was try and buy the top 3 suggestions in each category.
As we all know supplements and diets are very expensive but I was determined to do this. So much so, it told me to juice celery every morning and have a shot!!! I hate Celery but to me it made sense if my body needed it and I hated it so wasn't eating it maybe that was what was wrong with me... anyway long story short, I followed this book and did my detox. It was hard!! very hard but I stuck it out for a full 20 days which even took me over Christmas and New Year!! For Christmas dinner I had a plate of roasted vegetables and a tiny slither of Turkey as a treat!!! Yes a treat ha ha no profiteroles for me.
I was determined to do this in the hope that I would find a cure.
I never really noticed anything different apart from the fact that juicing every morning and making a smoothy was really exhausting for someone suffering with chronic fatigue. Having to prepare meals from scratch using only natural organic products and supplements was exhausting and expensive and I never noticed my energy levels changing. In fact if anything I was more exhausted making up my meals but I did it and in the first 3 weeks I lost a stone!!! I felt good for that!!
I carried on dieting but gradually started adding a few different things in along the weeks. Eggs came first. It is amazing how delicious eggs are when you haven't ate them for a month!!
I used to make Pea, Sweetcorn, Turmeric and Sea Salt Omelettes. Sounds bland and disgusting - Looked even worse but coming off of a detox was the best thing ever!!!
I added a bit of Ham in here!! How exciting!!

After a while I started adding meat into my diet and felt a lot stronger. I was going on the rule of if my body fancies it, Let's have it as long as it isn't sugar!!
Soon as I was getting very bored of my diet and so as not to fail I introduced some gravy into my Stew's. This was like Heaven! It did have a little impact on my stomach but the taste was delicious and I found out I could live on this every night for tea and still loose some weight. I lost over 2 stone altogether and then I just seemed to stop loosing, I wasn't eating Cake and Chocolate, I was eating freshly prepared meals and no pre packaged foods. This weighed heavy on my mind. Why suffer and not feel much better, not eat all the foods I craved if I wasn't loosing weight. It really didn't seem fair.
Then May happened!! My birthday and so I allowed myself some Cake and Party food - WRONG DECISION!! I have slowly declined and fell off the wagon massively and since May have nearly put on my Two stone!! I feel huge and lifeless and bloated.
What I am trying to say here is that even though this book didn't cure me. When I was on this clean eating diet and even with the gravy, I didn't see how well I was doing. I was always focussing on the negative as I look back from my bed today I can see how well I had got. Yes I still suffered with fatigue and sometimes it was bad and I would loose a day but now I have just lost 3 all in a row and I believe it is due to my bad eating habits. I so wish I had stuck to my diet as I now have to go through the detox again and it isn't a nice place to be. Anyway although this diet from the book didn't heal me. It was an amazing way to detox and gives you some amazing insight to these different illnesses and although I am not cured I am glad this book came into my life to teach me what I have learnt and so wanted to share that with anyone it may help. Just know, It isn't going to be your magical cure but it may just help you get into a good place to get on with other things like now I am starting a journey with Bowen and going to try out forever living Aloe Gel and the way I am going to detox this time is with the clean 9. Something has to help and I am willing to try anything. If it doesn't I am happy to keep trying, learning and hoping.
I can now see a definite difference in my pain and fatigue whilst dieting. I just didn't realise it at the time!!
I will be trying to document my new journey and hope to loose my weight again and regain my energy I didn't realise I got back!!
