Marjie is describing a paleo diet. This time from the book Ultra Simple Diet by Dr. Mark Hyman. Hear these wise words:
“Being inflamed makes you fat, and being fat makes you inflamed. Being fat is being inflamed. Period. If you don’t address inflammation by eliminating hidden food allergens and sensitivities or eating an anti-inflammatory diet, you will likely not succeed at effective and permanent weight loss.”
Buy the Ultra Simple Diet book, get your supplies ready and start living.
Here is a testimony of a senior lady Marjie who lost 100 pounds in 2 years by going on a cooked meat paleo diet, raw vegetables and calorie restriction diet. The testimony is littered with lively stories, just keep track of it.
To clarify: She did not recommend those chocolates or wheat… she said those were BAD. Sugar addiction.
Enjoy this perky senior lady’s testimony. Her name is Marjie.
If she ate her beef raw, then she’d be on raw paleo diet and be even more fabulous. So be careful when she says RAW, she only means raw vegetables.
I am living and learning how to eat the Calorie Restriction way. I have been at it for two years and lost 100 pounds.
It is so silly simple, why haven’t I been doing this for years.
I started eating 70% raw along with CR and find it very easy to do.
I don’t eat anything processed, nothing boxed, bagged, canned or bottled. A great way to live.
I just got news of a friend who had a retinal detachment problem and he says emergency surgery caught it in time. That’s good news. But I had better news almost 2 years ago when I had my retinal detachment scare. I was able to avoid surgery.
I woke up one day with a negative spot bothering the lower right quarter of my right eye vision. I thought, maybe it will sort itself out. I was beginning my raw paleo diet at that time. I met an opthalmologist in UP PGH as I was in a meeting with a client there at that time. The eye doctor said I may need to get emergency surgery as this possible retinal detachment can just blow up and blind my right eye.
Surgery. Always scary. Not all surgeries are successful. I could even get myself into a worse situation. There must be some other way. As usual, I did my diligent research.
I found out that eyes benefit greatly from lots of organic zinc. The best nutritional source of organic zinc are raw oysters. I had been avoiding oysters for a couple of months since my bad experience with Cavite oysters that led to red tide poisoning. I pooped and puked then, very good autonomic features, this saved me from red tide poisoning. Now I needed oysters, but where am I supposed to get clean oysters?
I was toying around with the idea that Farmer’s market may have better oysters than the ones from Marikina Market. Farmer’s Market oysters came from Pangasinan and Bulacan. Then my cousins flew in from the provinces and we had dinner at a place I suggested: Oyster Boy! Fresh oysters flown in from Iloilo! Hah, just what the holistic raw paleo doctor ordered. I ordered a dozen raw oysters. Nice dinner.
I woke up with 50% improved vision! As if window washers cleaned the window panes of my eyes. I didn’t know my eyes had degenerated that much until I ate those oysters last night. The effect was that so very fast. I was hooked. I learned I had a craving for oysters. This craving went on for months. I ate oysters some 3 or more times as full meals a week.
I thought my eyes needed some direct application and my research led me to Dr. Schulze’s Eye Bright formula. At the same time I needed an eye cup. I found a glass eye cup on ebay. Later on I realized I could just use swim goggles. Ah well, so I used the eye bright formula with the eye cup. I regularly opened my eyes in the eye cup with the formula and moved my eyes up down left right and round and round.
This went on for a few months until I got tired of doing the eye bright formula with the eye cup and I just forgot about the negative spot and today I don’t see any more negative spot.
I am always afraid of surgery because I do not believe it is the best way to go about retinal detachment problems. As far as risk and reward was, I felt with my research I had better chances of recovery with my nutritious raw paleo diet now fortified with the best zinc on the planet from oysters plus the herbs in the eye bright formula with cayenne seemed like a good idea to get blood circulation in my eyes going so that the nutrition in the zinc gets to where it’s supposed to go, to eye repair.
So I am well now from the possible retinal detachment which manifested itself with a negative spot. No surgery. Awesome!
A couple of people decided they would do an initial medical study to see how well the cooked paleo diet fared versus the conventional SWEDISH diabetes diet. Obviously, paleo diet is better. Even if cooked. Just imagine if they did a raw paleo diet study. But as you and I know, there will be no more money for future studies because studies are meant to sell drugs and drugs alone. So be happy something like this conclusion has come out:
Based on the results of this 3-month randomized cross-over study in subjects with type 2 diabetes, a Paleolithic diet improves glycemic control in association with improvement of several cardiovascular risk factors compared to a conventional diabetes diet. The study supports the initiation of a large scale study on the effect of Paleolithic diet in subjects with type 2 diabetes.
That is it. Be content with the thousands of testimonials on the internet about how great the paleo diet is. If you want even more health, try raw paleo diet. What I can tell you is great health is so satisfying you do not want to go back. Back to what? Mediocre health?

Looking back at my previous illness the past few days I think what I went through was the next detox stage of my life due to my relatively new raw paleo diet and lifestyle which has been going on for some 2.7 years now. What seems to me is that my body trunk and back seems to have had some avalanche detox. Something like probably a layer of dirty old stuff, old flesh, old fat which may have contained old toxins may have collapsed and pooped out in torrents.
My guess is that the ventosa cupping session had forced the issue of the deep tissue detox that ensued. My entire trunk was sensitive to touch the past 2 days, but today it seems to have worn off.
For the past 2 days I’ve been having large quantities of raw blue marlin for lunch. I look at it as raw fat loading, omega 3 loading to hopefully help tone down, calm down any body inflammation left. Maybe it is helping as well. You do know that when I eat raw blue marlin sashimi I eat it plain with no condiments. I like it that way, pure food. When thirsty, there’s always coconuts. Papaya has been good lately.
Other clues were some seeming “pimples” in a handful of places on my body. Must have been that toxin collapse that had been let go. They’re gone now, but that may have been it, toxins. So I’m thinking maybe this is the signal to start a sane body toning program. Just enough exercise, not waste time to have a pretty tummy and chest. That would be nice.
A still very strong Michael Douglas says in the David Letterman show that he thinks his throat cancer was caused by cigarettes and alcohol. Such a typical nightly form of relaxation commonly found in bars and night spots. Why do many people engage in this form of socialization with cigarettes and alcohol?
“I smoked cigarettes and I drank (alcohol) and this particular type of cancer is caused by alcohol… (but) it’s been a long year and I do think this is stress related,”
So let Michael the celebrity warn you about your health. Stop smoking and stop drinking alcohol. Did you know you can enjoy good company and good friends without smoking and without drinking alcohol?
A fellow raw paleo dieter and I had good times just eating raw meat and raw fruit together. We even had dual massages together. You can have fun and socialize on healthy stuff, healthy food.
We just celebrated an anniversary with zero booze and zero smoke. Why? Nobody smokes and nobody does booze in the family.
Currently, Michael Douglas is undergoing chemotherapy and radiotherapy treatment in a bid to get healthy. You know my opinion, bad choices. He should do nutrition and detox. He should just be chums with the healer Aajonus Vonderplanitz who lives in Malibu. I’m sure Michael Douglas can afford the consultation fees of Aajonus. Aajonus recommends a fully raw diet with lots of raw fat, raw bacteria filled meat, raw green juices and some raw fruit.
After the ventosa cupping method yesterday I was dead tired and I did get some good amount of sleep. I sweat the whole evening. I had to change my shirt, and change my shirt again after waking up. Something came out. Maybe the tension in my back muscles were overcome and toxins were released. My whole body felt tender when I woke up. My body was still sore.
I had promised to take the children to the QC Circle playgrounds Monday morning as it is a holiday but I just was feeling bruised and battered. But the good news it seems is a lot of tightness in my muscles had gone away. I did recover enough until just after lunch and had the energy and left with the children for a full half day of playgrounds and carnival rides at the QC circle. I still had some painful moments at the back of my skull. But I was fast getting well. Well enough to ride some carnival rides. Well enough to carry my 7 year old boy on my back.
It was more than carnival rides, we drove out of our way for errands, buy some fruit, then meet up with our baby nephew in the supermarket. Brought him a balloon as a present. He’s so cute.
We were back at home by 7:15pm.
Of course I was on raw paleo diet for this day, like always. Breakfast was 2 raw duck egg yolks + small raw fish dulong. Lunch was raw carabao meat and raw bone marrow. Dinner was also raw carabao meat and bone marrow. Fruit happened in between with citrus as hydrator, plus some coconuts.
So what was this all about? I’d say fatigue from staying up too late, plus dengue fever, plus old toxins, plus lack of circulation — need exercise.
Whatever it was, I hope to be back in full action tomorrow. Time to get back to work.
