When i got on the scale today I didn’t even realize it has been 60 days since I started this journey. All I saw was -40 Lbs.

Thinking of going to the store and taking my photo carrying 40 Lbs of sugar, but then I have always thought of it as a cliche, but you never know.

I realized I haven’t really written about what I am following so here it is.

In reading the Penn & Ray’s book I came across the name Dr. Fuhrman often so I went online and got his book The End of Dieting: How to Live for Life.

After reading it I changed my eating habits slowly towards whole food plant based, but still eat some fish and meat here and there.

Let’s start with some good news. As of this morning I lost a total of 36.9 Lbs.

Unfortunately last week Monday I started having terrible back pain and spasms. I was prescribed Valium & Naproxen and was sent for X-rays on Thursday.

On Friday afternoon after the doctor received the results of the X-ray he prescribed Percocet (Oxycodone) since the other meds were not helping with the pain and I was still in bed.

Saturday night a friend called and asked how the Oxi was working and since it wasn’t helping very much he said he would come over with something to try and help me with the pain. A few hours later he came over with a joint that I smoked too much of and got severe anxiety and a little psychosis, Even in that state of mind I realized the best thing for me was to go to sleep and when I woke up in the morning the pain wasn’t gone but it was not as severe and I was able to get out of bed and do basic functions.

I was very thirsty and hungry but stuck to drinking only water till the afternoon and then had 2 slices of toasted Manna sprouted bread and a salad, The headache seemed to go away overnight. [Read more…] about Some Updates
