Where do I begin? Well, let me start with high school. I never had a weight issue growing up. I ran track all through high school. It wasn't until I gave birth to my first child. I gained over a 100 pounds with the birth of each child and having to have two C-sections. Having my two kids a year apart didn't help. I never saw my size 1 again.
As my kids grew so did my weight as well as my health problems. I had what I know now to be an eating disorder. I was literally finding myself waking up in my bed, surrounded by food that I didn't even remember waking up and getting and eating in the middle of the night. I had acid reflux, anemia, and sleep apnea, just to name a few. In 1995 my health turned for the worse. I was rushed to the hospital because something was terribly wrong. I had never felt pain like this even with having my babies. When the doctor came to talk with me he said I had hundreds of kidney stones, and he was not sure how I got them or how to remove them. For years I was in unbearable pain passing kidney stones almost daily. It was like giving birth every day. One year, I had to undergo surgery and even though I was terrified at the time, I thanked God for bringing me out. But the doctor didn’t have good news for me even after the surgery. He told me due to the fact that the kidney stones had been sitting in my kidneys for so long, the prognosis’s he gave me was that I was going to die. After hearing this news I just fell on my knees and asked God please help me get out of this pain.
So the next day I started looking and researching for different things I could do to help me and I came across something called RAW FOOD. After reading account after account of people being healed of brain cancer, MS, diabetes, and high blood pressure and other diseases, I thought why not give it a try. I then began attending seminars, classes and dietary programs on the raw lifestyle. To make a long story short as they say – even though this story –my journey is by no means a short story but a lifestyle change, this lifestyle of eating started to heal my body and I started feeling better. The next time I went to the doctor there were no more kidney stones. I have been living the Raw Food lifestyle now for six years and have been healed of kidney stones for the past six years as well. I have also been healed of high blood pressure, acid reflux, sleep apnea, anemia, and arthritis. I was also on a number of medications (for high blood pressure, pain medication, for anemia) and I am now medication free. I have also lost over 100 pounds!!!! "TRUST THE PROCESS"!!!
