The Science of Fasting

Glad you've found something that's helping you lose weight and makes you feel better. You're on a path which can reward you with pride and better life. It's honestly a rarity to find people willing to do it themselves. Continue your path and soon you'll look back with pride of your accomplishments.

Got a coworker who eats like sheet and drinks so much he's type 2 now and only mid 30's. He's watched my 80# loss and resulting health. I've explained it over and over.

His solution? One of those new shots. He is miserable, but rather than take responsibility for his health he is content to use medicine which makes him feel terrible and prone to emergency bathroom trips and limits lunch options cuz he can't handle food.

Won't even consider giving up booze for a few months to get under control.

It makes me sad.

Thanks. Yeah, the discussion I had with my Doctor about my liver was a wake up call considering my grandmother passed away in November from the final stages of liver failure. My Doctor has me on a few meds, but my goal is to get off of them, heal my liver, reverse Type II and lower my BP (but I think that might be hereditary). My Doctor also mentioned surgery as a last option, but that's not an option for me. I had a friend/acquaintance pass away last year from complications during a surgery like that and I want no part of that.

It was so easy to eat healthy in the Philippines. I ate pretty much all fresh food made from fresh ingredients without all of the processing and toxins/poisons that are put into our food.
