Good Morning!
Whew...what a busy couple of weeks there! I have been very physically And mentally active lately. With the rain storms i was able to get a lot done around the inside of the house - kind of a Late spring cleaning. LOL Then it's been back to research and getting caught back up on all the happenings on email, fb, twitter etc.
So, Yes, Mentally i have been very active in Those regards; however upon counting last weeks kudos, i see that was the Wrong activities to be carrying on for weeks on end. Meaning i guess i Need to take time out and sit with this ED "person", if You will, and what???? What will happen Then? Will I be told some secret memory hidden away? Some knowlege or enlightenment will told to Me by the anorexic one? What? Why am i pushing desperately forward with all my energy and strength in Every Other area or aspect of My Life and Personality to keep some "conversation" from happening inside MY head?
Kudo count week of September 20-26, 2009 = 16.3 :( Pretty darn sad.
Oh, but I had a good excuse she tells Me which is then rationalized as o.k. (because we all know Any excuse Can be given to Justify Anything.) That excuse does Not mean that the wrong action is magically turned into the right. It is Still Wrong - just with an excuse.
True, with all the nasty around school, i've increased her dosage of Original Limu to keeps the "bugs" off her - it's working wonderfully. I decreased mine mine drastically, even skipping a few days in a row, and my next case comes tomorrow so i quit drinking it to give to my Husband and Daughter (probably about the 24th).
So without my Limu, the anorexia just kinda sneaks up and Jumps all over me. That's the "Excuse" and "I'm stickin' to it." LOL
However, i just counted this week's so far and am VERY Happy to see 11.5 Kudos! Whoo-Hoo!
Still, it's friday- only today & tomorrow to get 20 kudos so i am back where i was. So in Reality that is Not good. Thought i was because i really had to force the protein shake in the morning and a granola bar at lunch down my throat. But that was way better than the week previous when i did not eat until 4pm snack and some dinner.
I seem to have stumbled into a wide, long gully of some sort on this stretch of ED Recovery Road. It looks like there is only 1 way out of this part in The Road and that is to continue forward into the darkned area up ahead just around the corner to see what ED has to say to Me. Only by going inside the dark place will i finally be able to say,
"Anorexia, What say You?"
i'm afraid. i don't know what she'll say...or do to me. she's very strong ya kno.
How long can stand here before the turn, busying myself with tidying the house, caring for my Family and a menagerie of pets easily and happily taking up my time that i am Freely giving them - just to avoid the few agonizing steps to turn the corner and go into that dark spot in The Road? I know that others have went there and came out Better for having the strength and courage to travel such a scary Road. I know in My heart that I Will Be Better for continue-ing on The Road Myself.
Just Don't know if i'm ready to see what ED has to say.
I pray YOU have Blessings of Peace & Health, Enlightenment & Prosperity all Your Days!

Mental Health Parity Act of 2008 NEEDS YOU
Hello Friends and Neighbors!
Last month we had a wildly successful call in campaign for the SENATE.
Now we need to repeat the same strategy for the HOUSE.
As a member of the Eating Disorders Coalition (EDC) i am asking for Your voice to be counted. Urge Your Representative to Sign onto a Letter in Support of Parity Regulations Now.
This action is Needed by September 21st.
After years of hard work by mental health organizations such as the EDC, as well as other advocates And citizens, Congress passed the Paul Wellstone and Pete Domenici Mental Health Parity and Addictions Act of 2008 on October 3, 2008.
The bill requires the Departments of Labor (DOL), Health and Human Services (HHS) and Treasury to issue regulations Before the effective date of January 1, 2010.
The parity Act was enacted on October 3,2008 and Requires the Issuance of Regulations by OCTOBER3, 2009.
With or without regulations this Act goes into effect for most plans on January 1, 2010. NOT having Regulations issued in a timely manner, with Clearly Outlined Implementation Details, will greatly Limit the intended Positive impact of the Act.
Representative Patrick Kennedy is circulating a Dear Colleague Letter in the House which will be sent to the Secretariesof the 3 Departments Responsible for issuing regulations Insisting they act quickly and consider the comments that were filed in response to the request for information (RFI).
The EDC provided comments to the agencies earlier this year urging the Agencies to interpret the Law in a manner that would Include EATING DISORDERS Coverage.
EVERY Voice Counts!
This leglislation Will impact our Children & Grandchildren's future.
Without Specific writing in the Regulations regarding Eating Disorders (ED) and Eating Disorders Otherwise Diagnosed (EDNOS), the future generations that aquire this Deadly Disease will have no where to turn for help.
ACTION NEEDED:
Call or email YOUR Representatives and Urge them to sign onto Rep. Patrick Kennedy's "Dear Colleague Letter" by September 21st 2009.
To find Your Representative, go to www.house.gov
Put in Your zip code and Your Representative will come up.
Or You can use the phone number for the DC office (starts with 202)
THANK YOU so much for YOUR Time and Attention to This matter and more importantly, THANK YOU for Your Action and Strength in contacting Your House Representative and making Your Voice COUNT on this Important Issue facing Our Nation Today.
ED Is a SILENT killer.
ED IS a Completely Treatable, Curable And PREVENTABLE Disease.
With early information and detection a person suffering this disease CAN expect a Full Recovery. Get the Body Healthy and the Mind WILL Follow.
ED is SILENT because it traps the "patient" inside themselves where they are inundated with Thoughts and Feelings and Physical manifestations that encourage ONLY the Eating Disorder, rendering the person suffering This Disease helpless against an attack on the Body and Mind.
Without widespread Knowlege and Enlightenment on this Disease, it Will continue to feed off the "standard" media coverage (of the last 40 or so years), infecting yet Another Generation with it's SILENT Mission of Death through Malnutrition, Starvation and Death.
Fellow AMERICAN's, Please do NOT allow this Disease to Infect another Generation.
OUR Government is run BY the People and FOR The People of This Great Nation. OUR Future rests in the Decisions and CHOICES We make Today.
These Representative of the House and Senate were Elected BY US because WE felt that THEY conveyed Our Morals and Standards. Which They DO. However, They can ONLY Do This IF WE let Them know how and where WE Stand on any given issue.
With President Obama and Our Representatives in the House and Senate trying to pass a new HealthCare Reform, it is IMPERATIVE that EATING DISORDERS are Specified in black-and-white on the Regulations which WILL BE issued by OCTOBER 3, 2009.
John F. Kennedy said, (before My time,)
"Ask NOT what Your Country can Do for You. Ask, What Can YOU DO for YOUR Country."
In the era of HealthCare Reform it is Time for You (and Me) to Stand Up, Make Our Voice COUNT and DO for OUR Country what NEEDS to be done to ensure a Huge segment of OUR population is Not annihilated by a Treatable, Curable and Preventable Disease called Eating Disorders.
Thank YOU for YOUR Voice in the ear of YOUR Representative of the United States House of Representatives!
Your Action TODAY will ensure the Health of OUR Nation Tommorow!
Blessings of Peace & Health, Enlightenment & Prosperity to YOU!

Anorexia in Me
Hello Friends and Neighbors!
As i sit here and file and pick at my nails, i know that i am "avoiding processing" thoughts. Today i wanted to confront the Eating Disorder (ED) Anorexia. Its been a while since i really dove into the "personal" aspect of thinking as there is already alot to think about - Outside my own head.
So...How am i doing? ;)
To be quite honest i canNot have imagined myself ever being This Healthy. My body is progressing beautifully as i keep pouing the Original Limu to it every day.
(As a matter of fact i just grabbed a big glass to sip with You for my 1st #k (kudo) of today. I got 4.2 #k yesturday with 3 whole food, and the .2 were 2 snacks of food. :)
Anyways, my weight is slowly but steadily building back up from the 10 i lost over the summer. I have 3 more pounds to gain to get back to my 120. My energy level has really kicked up lately as i am actually excercising. Mostly dancing aound the house as i do my chores and i bought a glider machine (with stationary arms) at a yard sale so it is low impact but good cardio and lower body workout. So i am gaining back mostly muscle as well as working on my visceral fat which is extremely important to proper health.
So, as far as my Body is concerned: Recovered Anorexic. All functions normal and strong. My life long problem with IBS is just a vague memory as i canNot (Thankfully) recall a day in the last 2 years that i have missed using the bathroom. That squeezing pain in my left chest cavity that "bothered" me for years then grew excruciating when i was 96 pounds is gone along with the strange skipped beats. I have not been sick once in the last 2 years which is testimony to my immune system functioning at such a Healthy Optimimal level.
Honestly, 2 years and 4 months ago, i was with death as it came knocking on my door. To will was present within me, but the means was not. My disease of Anorexia had culminated in my body feeding off of Itself just to keep the brain & vitals functioning. At That point (after 20+ years of stealing nutrients from every bone, muscle and tissue) my body was ready to throw in the towel; it just could Not possibly sustain life as it had already feasted on its own.
So, almost 2.5 years of "forcing" my body to ingest pure liquid nutrients and especially Fucoidan, my body finally has the health of an 18 year old. I wasn't This Healthy when i Was 18, so to be here i am Very Proud of myself for making the Right Choice Every Day to drink Original Limu.
With my body so healthy, why is it still so Hard to get the thoughts/feeling right?
I like my new body and the new and improved me that was always hiding as the Anorexia pushed ME further and further away.
Daytime is still Very hard for me to eat. Especially when i am home alone. I just get "busy" around the house because there is Always a million things that need tending to to keep a house a home. So i glance at the shelving unit Wayne built for our dining room where the top shelf is lined with jars filled with goodies. Just like the old time cany store or 5 and Dime. Each glass jar filled with something good to snack or munch on from sweet to salty and All thing i like to eat. I look, then turn my head and find something to do. This happens in pantry when i get cleaning supplies on one side and the other 3 are filled with food.
I'm getting better lately about getting a glass of sweet tea in the afternoon. I open the fridge and my eyes gaze at all the shelves before closing the door, taking a sip and getting back to work.
I don't understand this strange illness/disease at all.People say all the time: "Just Eat. If You eat, then You are no longer anorexic. Right?" expecting the response to be "You are right". Which, in theory, they are. Once the body is healthy, it is "cured" right?
In Any other disease that attacks the physical body i would say that is true. Cancer, Diabetes, Heart Disease, Alzheiners etc...all are "cured" when the cause of the illness is eliminated- the tumor cut out, stabilize the blood sugar, get the blood and muscle healthy, eliminat the plaque buildup in the brain.
Anorexia seems to first feed on the brain. Not the actual mass, but the thoughts, feelings and neuropathways connecting this disease to body functions. Now, i have been able to "trick" this disease into stopping it's forward progression and annihiliation of my physical body simply by drinking Original Limu everyday. However, the root cause or origin is still a mystery to me as when my eyes look at food, there is no longer a thought like
"You shouldn't eat that. You'll get a fat gut." or
"Just don't eat. You don't have to."
which would turn into feelings of power, sense of accomplishment and (a sick, in hindsight,) happiness i would get when i walked away from the food. Now it (she) is very tricky.
I call her "she" because it's inside my head. The voice that used to talk to me was well, my voice, and so female. Since we stopped communicating through the spoken word inside my head she jus comes over me like a fog i guess. I see the food, and start to think about eating some of that food, then a sort of darkness falls over my mind, envelopes the thought and carries it away into the dark pit. Replaced instantaniously by my body moving me out of that situation and onto some task that doesn't involve food.
When my Daughter comes home from school there is a sense of relief inside me. For it is then that i know ED does Not have the control. I am at ease and relaxed with the food. I enjoy our snacks and dinner times, feels good to be able to do This as a family-share food.
When Wayne is home he is usually the one to ask about lunch. Actually he reminds me that it is "time for food". Which i make and we share together.
Why is it when left to my own, i do Not choose food?
I cannot tell You what a Blessing Original Limu has been to me and my family simply because i am Here and i am Healthy - in Spite of my disease!
Get the Body Healthy and the Mind WILL Follow.
I believe that even more today than i did 2 years ago. My body IS Healthy and my Mind is trying desperately to combat This state of being. She, the Anorexic, knows that no matter what i Will be drinking at least a 2 oz shot of Original Limu juice every morning and that if she gives me too much grief i will flood her with a couple more shots throughout the day, so that by afternoon and dinner food is NO obstacle to ME anymore.
How am i doing on Anorexia Recovery Road? I've climbed my way out of the Dark Place to reach the summit of a Healthy Body. From here on, it's downhill and a cake walk. Well...still lots of mental work to do, but now that my body is Healthy my brain mass is Healthy as well, which will facilitate new Healthy mental capabilities which will form the new hardwiring of the neropathways to finally make This Part of my Life's journey seem a thing of the past. A distant memory if You will as my thoughts and actions finally become whole to take care of this body.
Blessings of Peace & Health, Enlightenment & Prosperity to You & Yours!

American's Reform Health Care
Good Day Friends and Neighbors!!
American's Need to Reform the Care of Personal Health
So i was thinking about all this talk on Capitol Hill about the HealthCare Reform. As i'm sure it is on a lot of minds. I have taken a deep look into the responsibility of Us citizens where Our Health is concerned, so i thought i would at this from a different perspective: What exactly IS HealthCare defined as and how is the current system in the U.S.A. standing up to the measure?
Using the Random House College Dictionary and the Webster's Pocket Dictionary, the meaning of the words:
Health:
n. soundness of body or mind; freedom from disease or ailment
Care:
v. protection, charge or temporary keeping
n. guardianship or custody
Reform:
v. to reconstruct, makeover, or change something for the better; improve;
to abandon or give up evil ways
So, from this i gather that a Health Care System is Supposed to ensure the soundness of body and mind, to keep these free from disease and sickness while under the Care of a Dr. who is supposed to Protect the body from toxins and have only Temporary Custody of us for Only as long as we are sick.
Healthcare today does not seem to resemble that model. Once upon a time not too distant in the past, our Dr. were adamant about eating an apple a day to keep Them away. They were the ones to inform us of how the body works and the need for proper Nutrients in the daily diet. They did Not want us in their Constant care as that means their job of providing Health to us was inadequate. They wanted us Healthy because there was already enough sickness and disease in the world.
Fast forward to "modern medicine" era. At first was a Blessing as they found Natural cures for ailments like penicilln and aspirin. Which turned out to save millions of lives. Then the experimentation with synthetic drugs which did seem to solve a specific problem. Only after years of "human experimentation" after the FDA hurridly put these drugs on the market did they find them to cause birth defects, toxic poisoning, organ failure all as side effects of these so called miracle Drugs.
Here we are today. Being held hostage by the very Dr.'s sworn to Protect our health and the "system" which has taken it's whole focus off of US getting Healthy and instead put it's energy into making More toxic drugs, so the people on Their payroll - Yes, The Dr.s - will find new ways to use them and the Big Cash Cow just keeps mowing down our Finances and Health.
How can this country ever expect get out of the Health Crisis we are in when the very people (who are "educated" and Sworn to uphold our Health) we trust are poisoning our system with countless pills and the only answer in our future is to take more DRUGS?
The problem with the HealthCare issue is Not the insurance and the skyrocketing cost of medical treatment. This is Only the Reaction of our action to buy into Everything the Government and the Medical Community are feeding us over the last 50 or so years.
Because we have decided of our own free will to just pop handfulls of pills -Drugs- into our system daily instead of Eat properly, we have caused this financial and health crisis on ourselves and our Grandchildren.
So, with the new "idea" being: turn Everything that concerns the Health of America's Citizens over to the Gov't do we really think That is the answer to all our problems?
Our Own Government refuses to even see a connection between the food we eat and our health. They are Not interested in healthy bodies, because if You and I are healthy, we won't need them or the Drugs they push wich means they don't get the money that we would have spent on legal Rx Drugs and degenerative diseases cause by nothing more than a lack of nutrition which is malnutrition when You don't get real nutrients in the food available to purchase.
I was raised "if ain't broke, don't fix it." Sure the "HealthCare System" has some problems, everything does, but it ain't broke. It really does work.
What IS Broke is the American Way of Thinking: Drugs will solve all our problems.
Isn't that what Elvis, Joplin, Hendrix, Belushi and now Jackson all believed? Weren't Elvis and Michael both under the Care of their Dr.? Wasn't That Dr. providing HealthCare to them?
What makes Our bodies any different? Now, look in Your Drug- oh! i mean "medicine" cabinet. How many pills are there? Now how many would be taken away if Your Body were Healthy?
A healthy body needs no drugs.
A health body needs no government, stipulating treatment.
A healthy body is the beginning of a healthy nation.
A healthy nation starts with YOU.
Enjoy a refreshing glass of Original Limu every morning to receive Your Blessings of Peace & Health, Enlightenment & Prosperity from Lady Limu and "ask Not what Your Country can Do for You," (JFK) but answer with a resounding You Will get Healthy for Your Country.

Fast forward to "modern medicine" era. At first was a Blessing as they found Natural cures for ailments like penicilln and aspirin. Which turned out to save millions of lives. Then the experimentation with synthetic drugs which did seem to solve a specific problem. Only after years of "human experimentation" after the FDA hurridly put these drugs on the market did they find them to cause birth defects, toxic poisoning, organ failure all as side effects of these so called miracle Drugs.
Here we are today. Being held hostage by the very Dr.'s sworn to Protect our health and the "system" which has taken it's whole focus off of US getting Healthy and instead put it's energy into making More toxic drugs, so the people on Their payroll - Yes, The Dr.s - will find new ways to use them and the Big Cash Cow just keeps mowing down our Finances and Health.
How can this country ever expect get out of the Health Crisis we are in when the very people (who are "educated" and Sworn to uphold our Health) we trust are poisoning our system with countless pills and the only answer in our future is to take more DRUGS?
The problem with the HealthCare issue is Not the insurance and the skyrocketing cost of medical treatment. This is Only the Reaction of our action to buy into Everything the Government and the Medical Community are feeding us over the last 50 or so years.
Because we have decided of our own free will to just pop handfulls of pills -Drugs- into our system daily instead of Eat properly, we have caused this financial and health crisis on ourselves and our Grandchildren.
So, with the new "idea" being: turn Everything that concerns the Health of America's Citizens over to the Gov't do we really think That is the answer to all our problems?
Our Own Government refuses to even see a connection between the food we eat and our health. They are Not interested in healthy bodies, because if You and I are healthy, we won't need them or the Drugs they push wich means they don't get the money that we would have spent on legal Rx Drugs and degenerative diseases cause by nothing more than a lack of nutrition which is malnutrition when You don't get real nutrients in the food available to purchase.
I was raised "if ain't broke, don't fix it." Sure the "HealthCare System" has some problems, everything does, but it ain't broke. It really does work.
What IS Broke is the American Way of Thinking: Drugs will solve all our problems.
Isn't that what Elvis, Joplin, Hendrix, Belushi and now Jackson all believed? Weren't Elvis and Michael both under the Care of their Dr.? Wasn't That Dr. providing HealthCare to them?
What makes Our bodies any different? Now, look in Your Drug- oh! i mean "medicine" cabinet. How many pills are there? Now how many would be taken away if Your Body were Healthy?
A healthy body needs no drugs.
A health body needs no government, stipulating treatment.
A healthy body is the beginning of a healthy nation.
A healthy nation starts with YOU.
