Well I must admit, when Christmas came this year, I fell off the rocker when it came to following my Acid Alkaline Diet. At first, everything seemed fine... but gradually, I started to feel week again. I had a lot of trouble waking up in the morning, and was back to drinking over 3+ cups of coffee a day just to stay awake and keep moving. Our company is growing at a ridiculous pace, and renovations where underway, I couldnt seem to keep up, and get back on the rocker.
I started getting sick more, felt terrible, and once again started having other health issues that had literally vanished once I had switched my diet. What was I doing to my body! I was back up to 208 pounds (February 29th, 2009)!
Last week, I had it. I couldn't do this to my body anymore. I started once again on my my path to a healthy lifestyle. I started with a colon cleanse. I used Dr. Natura's product for this. It's by far the most impressive product out there. I changed my eating habits slowly, where I am now once again completely rid of Coffee (Sorry Starbucks) and Pop. Today was my first day without wheat products, and I went over to Sobey's and picked up some great Organic Rice Pasta which is wheat and glucose free. I boiled that up and in a separate pan, put some red peppers, onions, garlic, and some natural fresh seasoning I cut up myself (Parsley, Basil, Oregano).
I've also been drinking a TON of water, and taking Noni, Goji, and Mangosteen juice.
My goal is to have my body cleaned out and detoxed by next week, and we shall see how I feel. I can honestly say that after a week on the path to Alkaline goodness, I am already feeling a million times better, and am excited once again to be living life to it's fullest!
I know there is not a lot of "scientific" research or proof that following an Alkaline Diet will actually be good for you, or that Noni, Goji, or Mangosteen aren't anything more than expensive fruit juices, but here is my question to all the scientists out there.
Why do I feel like a million bucks when I eat organic, fresh food and vegetables, and feel like garbage when I eat lots of pasta, bread, sauces, some vegetables, meat, and take antibiotics to cure my "sickness's".
I don't need "scientific" proof to know what I should be doing. I hope you don't either.
I've received a fair amount of emails asking how I was able to lose the weight so fast and decided to put together an extremely simplified and basic plan to the Alkaline Diet. Please note that the key component to my success was pain.
Anthony Robbins always talks about pain vs. pleasure. In order for me to make this work, I created a state of mind of "enough is enough" and the pain of continuing my existing diet of eating whatever I perceived tasted good and relieved stress, was worse than eating healthy and improving my body through healthy eating.
Until you can create enough pain with your current lifestyle choices, you will never be able to make a massive change. And as we all know, Massive Results are only obtained by Massive Change! There are no short cuts in life.
That's it, of course if you would like recipes, motivation, and explanation to why this works, and why Acid forming foods will cause candida, sickness, cancer, and death, buy The pH Miracle! Below is a sample of foods you can eat, and a list of things you can't.
Foods that you can eat (Alkalizing)
Have as much as these as you want, stuff your face with them!
Foods that you cannot eat or drink! (Acidic Forming)
Follow this plan, and you will drop weight. There are hundreds of other things you should incorporate into this new lifestyle; however they are all covered in the book. Some additional things I did to lose weight faster:
That's it, that's the high level plan of what I followed for about 3 weeks to lose 30 pounds! I'm hoping to lose more in the next few weeks but expect results to slow as I start getting to my ideal weight of 165.
Good Luck!
