Yesterday it came to me, how much I appreciate what healthy eating, exercise and weight loss have brought to my life.
I remember the days (when I was obese), where I got a headache each and every day. I drank Paracetamol tablets each and every day to calm the pain. I was certain that the headaches was caused by constantly looking at a computer screen the whole day at work. I should have know better …
Since my whole lifestyle changed, I have only had one headache every other week! Now this is great especially for someone who got a headache every single day of her life.
Another thing which came with healthy living, is the aches and pains are gone in my joints and ribs. I constantly suffered from pain in my joints and in the areas of my ribs. I thought that this was due to my children rheumatism but since my lifestyle change, this have also gone out the window. I no longer have any joint pains or pain in my rib area every single day of my life. I still have pain in my joints in the winter months but the doctor told me that this is in fact the children rheumatism and not the constant pain I used to have in my joints. That was caused by my obesity.
Lastly, since my lifestyle change, I feel younger. I feel as if I have the World’s energy and that I can go on & on & on. Feels good to be able to move more easy, live more easy.
Reading makes me think of all the so called sicknesses so many people think they have, not looking at their weight or eating habits.
You are what you eat! I so believe that statement – conventional Dr’s give people medication for everything – thank goodness for the Dr’s who are seeing the power in what we eat….hence the no wheat and grain that is helping people instead of medicine.
Lovely to read the differences you are feeling.
When I get a pain or headache my first thought is – what did I eat….and I read the labels most times to find something hidden that I missed.
Thanks for sharing
