Happy 4th of July!

Not knowing what I’m really doing on this blog, I might as well get started with writing about my Dr Hyman experience.

I’d not heard about Dr Hyman until my sister-in-law mentioned something about him.  In my quest for losing weight and my pre-diabetic state, I knew I had to do something to help myself.  But what?  the $1000 question, right?  If only something would work.  If only I could stop my body from gaining more weight and inches. I’d read a lot about the female fat cell (Outsmarting the Female Fat Cell by Debra Waterhouse), and I’d read a  book about pre-diabetes by Jack Challem (Stop Prediabetes Now).  Jack Challem’s book actually got me started on the right path of eating more veggies.  But after reading about Dr Hyman, I knew I needed more information about what to actually do to “fix” my body that was out of control.

I started listening to an audio version of Dr Hyman’s “Ultramind Solution”.  It woke me up!  Not only do I have a broken body with a pre-diabetic condition, but my mind is/was broken. I have trouble putting thoughts into words, and reaching for words that just aren’t there anymore.

I’ve been “eating better” for about 7 weeks.  I’m still reading “The Blood Sugar Solution” and so far it mirrors a lot of what’s in the “Ultramind Solution”.   I’ve dropped 8 pounds and my energy level has zoomed.  I’ve been exercising most days to my DVD by Leslie Sansone.  I actually feel good now, and life is a lot more fun!
