The Lord’s plan for good health works in actual practice. Today I added the following to my diet diary.
Weight 259 pounds
BMI now at 38.24
Lab work done on 3/18/2010. hs-CRP now down to 1.8. Also the TG/HDL ratio is low at 1.25. VLDL Cholesterol is also low at 11. Total weight loss since April, 2009 is 86 pounds. My BMI has gone from 50.94 to 38.24.
All of these are objective evidence that the diet and lifestyle plan in effect is making a dramatic difference in my body, both externally and internally. These positive changes are consistent with my subjective symptoms i.e. pain, shortness of breath, decreased peripheral edema, diminished sleep apnea and general alertness and more positive mental mind-set. I have now returned to work and feeling most positive about my physical ability and stamina to work a full day in a normal expected capacity for a Physical Therapist.
All the credit goes to our Lord God, who has shown me the relevant aspects of good health and diet for these marvelous bodies He created for us to use while here on earth. He has also given me the understanding and focus to change my life in a way that results in good health. I am still on the long journey as I have about 80-90 pounds to lose, but what a tremendous blessing. I must develop His plan and design so it helps others. It is an absolute key to reversing the epidemic of obesity and associated health problems plaguing our contemporary world. Even though I continue to be a “work in progress” this is proof, even anecdotal in nature, that the Creator’s Design for our bodies works. It more than suggests that employing Therapeutic Nutrition and Lifestyle principles as given to me by our Lord will reverse a lifetime of adverse dietary and lifestyle problems. I pray that the rest of you can understand and follow our Lord’s call for us to nurture and love our bodies as He intended while we are here on His good earth.
Lord Luv Ya!
