Back on the bandwagon

About 4 months ago my doctor revealed some disturbing news.
All my blood tests (A1C, Insulin, Blood pressure, Cholesterol, Triglycerides etc..) are out of control.

Considering my father had a heart attack when he was 32.. this pretty much scared the CRAPOLA out of me! She said that at the rate I was going I was set to have a heart attack within the next five years or so.

So... she instructed me to
- Cut out all refined carbs.
- No Dairy
- Lots of veggies
- Lots of lean meat
- No Alcohol
- Only whole grains like Quinoa, brown rice, etc.
- Increase my protein especially with the help of protein shakes like Jarrow Brand (none of that artificial sweeteners, dyes, etc in it)

She put me on
Blood Sugar support
D-Pinitol (the most amazing stuff EVER if you have PCOS and worth the price tag.. trust me)
Magnesium
Multivitamin
Vitamin D
And .. fish oil.

In the first month and 1/2 I went from 208 to 181.6 and then I lost my job so I got stuck because I fell off the wagon. I went in and had follow up blood work done and things are much better. So better, in fact, that the doc asked me to write a testimonial for her about both their services as well as taking D-Pinitol. I am finally back on the correct eating bandwagon again...
And I am down to 175 or so since Saturday. (YAY!)

I am a firm believer in getting off all that crap the regular docs put you on like prescription meds, birth control pills, and all that other crap. Find a doctor that listens and gets to the root of the problem. It is worth its weight in gold. :)

So.. now you know I am a total wack job that doesn't believe in conventional medicine unless my arm is falling off or someone took a hack saw to my stomach or something... LOL!
(There is a time and place for everything, but prescriptions are way WAY over used in this day in age)

Ok all.. now ya know!
