new schedule

From all of my research, which has been scientific and thorough, I am going to start a new routine, aimed at health and ultimately happiness ( which is what I was indirectly aiming for with the weight loss crap). My new plan will avoid snake oil or other stumbling blocks or detours that money can cause by being free....cause if someone is selling it, you cannot trust them.

1) wake up and do radio taiso, followed by stretch routine. Taichi for balance while my glucose spikes, then study the Book of Mormon until the kids go to school. Then do my mile walk while doing Icelandic vocabulary.
2) at noon, eat  followed by AB workout.
3) composition time until kids get home.
4) dinner, then walk as a family.
5) no food or electronics after 8pm.
6) CFM scripture at 8pm.
7) Take a bath, do stretch routine, and fall asleep by 10pm

are you really strong enough?

I felt inspired to record the impression I just had during my morning study of The Book of Mormon. I am trying to wrap my head around every concept and story in a broad stroke of firstly, 1 Nephi, and Someone me toned something I never  considered implications of before. It was in the dream that Lehi had of the tree of life, and he portook of tge fruit and it was incredibly desirous...yeah, and then he instantly looks for his family to share it with. And when he sees them he calls out and beckons to them. Isn't that noteworthy?

He does not leave the tree once he finds it, though he wants to share it, no doubt about it. It reminded me of a scene in the video about Gordon B. Hinckley where his wife says that she always knew that he would place God first in his life. And it is clear how if you place God first, your relationship with eachother will be strengthened, I digress... The realization to share was that one ought not ever considered themselves sufficient to a task, or in otherworldly, strong enough. 
We often feel mighty and strong and sure when we are being helped but if we wander off to help others that confidence will fade fast.

long story made short

I have made the resolution to study the book of Mormon for at least an hour per day. Because I am following, though late, Ezra Taft Benson's admonition to start from the inside out. And though I made huge progress in health beauty alludes me physically, and I realized that appearance does not even matter... there was a line from the movie Amadeus where a opera singer says, "only talent concerns a woman of taste." When told that Mozart was not at all attractive.

Is it Lymphatic?

I suppose mostly this will be a proof of trusting science to provide the unknown truth.

I just knew my problem was dehydration, although I proved undeniably, to myself several times that it was not an issue. Still, I could not leave well enough alone and day after day found myself pondering and searching for the answer to what ailed me. I mean, wasn't I unhealthy? Even common sense and most others expressed the opinion that it was a total waste of my time in trying to fix something that was not broken. As the new year came, I decided to adopt a new resolution to accept myself as I was and channel my money, time, and effort in new directions. Still, I found myself like a dog returning to it's own vomit.

Then, this morning everything clicked! All of the angles would add up to make a perfect triangle with this one angle! So, I have adopted it and my outlook has already improved significantly. Now, it is merely a matter of seeing if it hands on produces the desired result.

I started calculating and realized that I had been dehydrated, which is what all of my symptoms suggest, only if I drank more, I instantly peed it out. I always sort of gut reaction, sought out lymphatic  exercises not really even knowing what they were and several times I suspected I had liver or kidney issues, but then Boom! All at once I would loose weight, like over night whenever I drank alot of certain teas.

I realized what it was. I had a lymphatic blockage, and so mu body adapted so I would not retain too much water. But, I found a simple daily lymphatic routine which I fully believe with resolve each and every issue I ever had as long as I drink enough.

Bottom line: it is never a good thing to align your problems with problems that merely share symptoms.
