just thinking out loud here...

lately several people, including a couple of clients have told me that they have gone on the God diet.. in other words, nothing processed. One woman shared her story with me.

She made a conscious effort to go shopping and not pick out anything processed, (she lived on box dinners and such being a busy woman, it was convenient,) when she hit 330 pounds, was always aching and headachy, she knew she had to make a change.

She left the grocery store with about 3 things and spent $20.00. She was sure she was going to starve to death. She said EVERYthing is processed in some way.... she was really worried about what she was going to do!

Then she started researching how to make things from scratch, how to eat sensibly and enjoy it. After a year and a half she lost 60 pounds, without counting a calorie or anything, had no more arthritic pain, had more energy than ever and is still losing, she said the withdrawal period was tough but once she was off of processed foods she no longer craved them, in fact, they made her sick now. She said she is STILL detoxifying from years of eating out of boxes.

i'm happy for her
