Call it what you like, but upon intense research (as intense as I can get on google) I believe they are all the same.
The other day my tv was set on TLC, a marathon of "My 600 pound Life". As I came in and out of the room the one thing I did get out of the shows is this: protein protein protein and a little veg. in tiny amounts…1200 calories a day. And that is basically the same as the Paleo way of eating, Atkins, Dr. Spears, etc….
My sister phoned this morning and we discussed arthritis pain management…and she is very very well informed on this issue and well worth listening to. She had been reading my kindle and I had bought a book on Paleo eating and I think her opinion on this subject is if everyone ate this way, type 11 diabetes, inflammation (arthritis), gastric disturbances etc…would disappear.
My past life coach encourages everyone to not only make a personal commitment to something but speak out and tell as many people as possible. This apparently helps keep you committed and you end up with a larger support group.
I know in the past I have done that and been pretty successful…at least til the next stupid cruise. So here I go again. I am going to eat Paleo, complete with awesome recipes I found. I am going to make the breakfast, lunch and dinner according to those recipes and probably force the rest of the household to eat it too! I am going to see if this will help with the back pain. Kathy said it could take up to three months for results but if it makes this stupid pain go away, and by the looks of the recipes it should be tasty, then its well worth the effort. I believe my diabetes numbers will come down too. And….this is the hard part, maybe lose some poundage. I haven't weighed in so long that now I am scared to. I am pretty sure I am near 300 now for sure. Things don't fit anymore. Time to do something about this. There is such shame with overweightness. Its a self inflicted hell.
So with that in mind…I will also record my weight here. Might as well get it out there..no more denial (and this goes beyond my shovel list)
Starting tomorrow I will put my weight at the bottom of the page…like anyone cares haha…but it well help me keep myself accountable. And seriously, I am predicting it to be in the very high 200s or low 300s. Achhh…how did this happen? :( TTYL
