you know... I feel so much like the answer is there right in front of me. That I have the strength to do what I need to do in regards to eating well, and spending the time I need to spend in the word of God. Yet... at the same time there is still that part of me that holds me back. That whispers that its not going to happen. I still find it truly difficult to deal with all that goes on in me, my body feels so foreign to me. I guess thats kind of hard to understand, but its almost as if I try to do something good, that I have one answer and then all the sudden another pops up and something once again seems to be wrong.
Ive been getting bad, dizzy headaches and I kept wondering what was going on. Friends said its my eyes and to check it out. So I went to a doctor, after a month of these headaches... I couldn't deal with it anymore, it was like I needed to sleep all the time. So, more tests. As well, my doctor said that I can't get all the nutrition that my body needs if I choose to go forward in a vegetarian diet. He said that its almost impossible to get all the protein and substances that my body is obviously craving. So, he suggested that I reconsider and go back on eating lean chicken and fish. Well, fish is out of the question. The last time I ate salmon I was sick for four days. However, chicken and turkey may not be a bad idea. Go on it for a while, get my strength back in other areas, take the detox stuff and get back to normal. Then work on getting rid of the chicken/turkey allergy. I mean, Ive dealt with the stomach stuff before... I can surely do it again. I can't handle this "drunk" feeling any longer, its driving me crazy... I feel like I can't function.
Its nuts huh? One doctor tells you to do one thing, and another the opposite. One test reveals your allergic to meat, yet another could reveal that I need meat in order to function. That I could possibly have low blood sugar and low iron. BA! hahaha... so Im in limbo... again...
Please Father God, please guide me to the answer and the plan that I can follow, that is right for me to regain my health.
Blessings.

In order to improve your health, you must stop taking harmful & unhealthy foods, drinks or drugs in your body for a period of time.
You know, I had the same problem approximately seven months ago. Dizzy headaches and getting lazy, I mean. By then, I decided to lose my weight first of all, after that I promise to myself loving my body much more than before. So I’ve taken healthy diet, eating lean chicken, drinking milk like a new-born baby! And running, that would be so fun, try to do it, Nicole. The most important thing is that you can be the best doctor for your body. Trust me.
Be blessed,
Bobby.
well nicole i completely don't agree with your doctor that you can't get all the nutrients that your body needs on a vegetarian diet or there would be a lot of asian people who are really sick. the key is being aware of what nutrients you're not getting from meat and making a point to getting them from other sources... say, for example... people say "a vegetarian doesn't get enough protein in their diet"... not true! there are great non-animal sources of protein! tofu, chick peas, black beans, lentils, legumes, oatmeal, and my new adventure i'm embarking on, quinoa (pronounced keen-wa) its a whole grain that is a complete protein containing essential amino acids! the key is not to just cut meat out but to substitute in something else... i recommend the magazine "vegetarian times" its got some great recipes and informative articles... there was a really great one about how to inform your doctor of the benefits of a vegetarian diet... i'll try and find it for you!
