Doctor Bills ? Apples ? ! CBS-Charlie Rose

            I know you've heard it all before, but I have never heard a newscaster say to a doctor, but isn't this all the same. On CBS my favorite morning relaxing show,  a doctor was on with another book. At the end of the chat, Charlie Rose asked what we were mostly all thinking-isn't this just more of the same and mentioned what it takes to just stay healthy.
   I've know forever, like we all do what it takes to be healthy-"WE" just don't use self-discipline. This doctor stated, Carbs at the end of the day. Because your sugar spikes so mainly better to have that happen at dinner time when you know it will go back down so you can get to bed relaxed. In his book he also tells what are the exact foods that are higher in protein, that we need early. I know, other books have that also.
     Seven days ago I started plant based-not fully-I know me. But I have now lost seven and a half pounds. I didn't, am not doing it for weight control, although to be honest, I look like  a female quarterback-lol
     I am doing this because I remembered how I felt three years ago when I was first shown a film at my sons father-in-laws home-OUR FOOD, ( not the film name) what we eat is horrible. I know we love junk and it's about turning your life, your hard earned money into what they were, are, both meant for, 
                                                                        LIVING !
       It's much easier to make a 5 qt. crock of chicken, use the broth after you chill it a day, remove the fat, and pull apart the chicken also the next day, and add bunch of fresh carrots, a bag of frozen vegetables. That fed me and my little guy six meals. He is 14. He ate apples, and I gave us both flat bread to share, not with every meal. I will do the same with beef, make my own broth rather than use store cans or waxed containers with preservatives.a
     PLEASE, don't think I won't have pizza, ice cream and mac n cheese-sometimes, maybe once a week, choosing between pizza and mac n cheese.
     So In closing-DECIDE, where will your money go ? To Build a big house for your doctor ? Food as Medicine, it's own preservative or to the doctors, pharmacies, and hospitals or nursing homes. DO you want to be an ABLED person or DISABLED?

Bruce & Patrick AGE & WEIGHT-Patrick & Boxlightner

       What a shock when I saw both of these men in a hallmark movie. I thought they were close in age, but looked them up and yes, Patrick is a little bit older, almost a year.
        Yet as I watched both of these men walk down a short path, then about to sit, I noticed how easily Patrick Duffy sat while Bruce Boxlightner  did one of those uh, letting a breath out sitting down, not as easy. It was very obvious why. Bruce has packed on the pounds. I'm no skinny and have already started on daily changes because I don't want to look so much older than I am.
        When the movie opened, Patrick looked like he could be father of the bride, while Bruce looked like Grandfather of the groom. I hate to insult, but this  is an eye opener for me, for sure.
      Patrick Duffy will be 66 in March 2015 and Bruce will be 65 in May 2015. They look about the same height and it ends with that. So we all know weight equals age as in how old do you really look compared to how old you really are. But what to do about it ? A meal at a time.
    First please look up Dr. Josh AXE. He is authentic, not trying to starve people, but is so easy to grasp what is good for us and what is poisonous. I thought as do many how great olive oil is-check again. But Grape seed oil. I just listened to another u tube video on building muscle and losing fat-It comes down to how much protein you need, According to AXE we need to eat half of our body weight to build muscle and to burn fat 7 percent of body weight and I have started that today. He also tells us WHEY protein is a good source to build protein and I already have that.
    Are there vegetable you can't see eating because you don't like the taste? Me too, so I started roasting an assortment, sprinkled  thyme and basil on them, added a cut up apple or pear and I got delicious. Okay that's enough for now. Good luck and try it. What have you got to lose?
