Depending on how you read the title, it can sound like my weight is continuing to rise and I'm starting to get really down on myself. Fortunately, I am happy to report that it is just the opposite! I weighed in at a nice 236.5 this morning. That 235 milestone is in my sights! (I have a milestone every five pounds. That way I can have reasonable short-term goals and achievements to keep me motivated. If every few weeks you reach a goal, it gets you fired up and ready for more) So, my weight is moving slightly down, and my blood sugars are getting better. They're still a little high, but I have seen a big improvement lately. Julie, the homeopathic therapist I have been going to, recommended putting cinnamon sticks in my water. Apparently, cinnamon is a very good natural blood-sugar controller. And, when you simply put a stick in a bottled water (1 stick will last for three bottles) it naturally helps regulate blood sugar and it flavors the water at the same time!
So weight and blood sugar are moving downward, what is moving upward? My PH levels! Nearly three weeks ago, my ph balance was 5.8, which is way too low. (5.0 is almost dead!) Ideal is in the 7.4 range. Last night, at my follow-up visit at Julie's office, my ph balance was 7.6! I actually went slightly too much the other way! My wife's was the same. The people at the office were very proud of us, but not as much as we are proud of ourselves!
I apologize if this post is overly positive, I'm sure I'll be back to gloomy soon (actually, I hope not!).
