Kinesiology (? spelling)

I know I mentioned this to several people and said I'd blog about the results....I will begin at the beginning....grab your snack or cup of coffee.....here goes.....I can never make a story short.... Paul hasn't been feeling well for the past few years due to a tick bite...he's been trying different things...and finally he has won his battle, finding what works for him!! He's been going to a doctor in NY. He has a web site which you can log onto and check it out = Bodycures.com This doctor studies Kinesiology (if I'm saying this correctly). Paul loves this doctor! During one of his appointments they discussed 'emotions' and Paul is reading a book regarding this technique. While reading this, Paul is 'experimenting' on me. One day while Paul was sitting next to me, as I glanced over to look at him, I realized he looked so wonderful and healthy again! I asked what he was doing different and he told me about this doctor. Of course he had to run off to do his thing so he just left me with - check out Kinesiology on the internet. I did and I got a bit discouraged...thinking this is a big hoax! But I didn't really want to say this to Paul, if he feels it's working, why bust his bubble. Just thinking - this isn't for me. While wanting to 'practice' on me....Paul took my arm and I extended it while he place his other hand on my shoulder...said a few things and anything negative my arm would lower on it's own....sure, but I think he's pressing on my arm to go down....after a few tries I walked away and got ready to take my shower. Before Paul tried his technique on me I had just stripped Samantha's bed and put it back together....I didn't feel tired - I've done beds before and more....In the shower I began to feel tired; exhausted; like I was on chemo....I'm thinking = what the heck. I've cleaned my house before and why on earth am I feeling so tired all of a sudden. Out of the shower with a towel around me, I went back to Paul's room and told him that he left me with 'negative energy'!! Give me 'positive energy back'. All he did was ask me my name and I turned around to leave his room == OMG...I felt wide awake and energized!!!! Okay, NOW I'M A BELIEVER!!! This kid is just reading a book and trying it out on me...what can a doctor that practices this do?!!! His doctor is about two hours away - and if you know me, I will NOT drive that far! Paul had a BBQ here and they were talking about this - now this is really weird - there is a doctor that practices this right here in our town!! Blairstown!!! With that, Paul called to make an appointment for me! I was a little excited going knowing what Paul was able to do and I couldn't wait to see what this. a real, doctor would do. I laid on this table with my right arm extended. The doctor placed his hand gently on my arm and the other hand he moved over my body. HE found the 'weak' spots!!! He waved his hand over my right breast and my arm went down! Over my left breast and it was still extended where it was....HE did not know which breast I had the cancer in!!! The area where I had the liver resection - same thing....He put his hand over the entire liver and nothing happened until he 'hit' that spot. This sounds so strange! But it works! Finding the weak spots. He did some other 'testing' while there and then I met with him again several days later for him to discuss his findings. I was a little discouraged after he told me that I really have to change my diet in order to de-tox and get healthy again. All of a sudden - change your diet. I knew I wasn't eating the right way. Too much junk food, too much sugar (chocolate included). Cancer grows on sugar! I knew that but I enjoy eating this way. I eat good food but also the junk food!!! To get healthy I have to change. Sure 63 years old and now I have to eat correctly! No more sugar! which includes baked goods, chocolate and fruit. No more carbs = no bread, pasta, potatoes! Okay, so what do I eat?! The same diet as Paul!! I always felt so bad for Paul - always cooking or grilling his foods...no junk food in his diet...I'd never be able to do this. How on earth do I get Charlie to eat right? Duh, I do the food shopping! I won't buy the stuff we won't be eating! Can I change Charlie? If he's eating what I can't - will I loose my self control? NO! I will have total commitment to this. Eating all types of vegetables and meats (chicken, beef, turkey, pork and try buying organic). I can do this! I WILL do this! My full pantry will be empty! I will give away all my stuff - cereals, crackers, pudding mixes, boxed cake mixes, If it's not there - I won't want it. Paul did say they have a 'rice' pasta....guess I'll have to try that. I'm not sure if everyone that goes to this doctor changes everything...not sure if they can include fruits. Maybe I just have too much sugar in my system that needs to be cleaned out! Once beginning this new meal plan I'm suppose to go back once a week to see if I am detoxing. Then taking supplements to help along the way. I haven't really begun since I'm not sure how I will feel right after the surgery and if I need to go for radiation treatments which would be every day (Monday thru Friday) for seven weeks. Just the drive alone, back and forth, is 1 hour, then the wait....too much stress to have to have another appointment. I know, I'm making excuses! I have begun! I did my food shopping on Tuesday and bought only the things I can eat. Felt so weird not going up and down all the isles! Even though my cart was full (without cleaning products or paper goods)I didn't spend as much as I usually do. We'll see if it stays the same when I need to purchase the toilet paper, paper towels, etc. Would I recommend YOU going? YES - but only if you want to be healthy! Changing your diet is very hard...but knowing you will benefit from it in the long run is worth the try. Now, seeing what I've fed my babies, now grown adults, I feel a little guilty. Mother's are suppose to teach your children how to eat. Not having the junk food around will be an incentive for Nicholas and Samantha as Paul already knows what he can and can't eat. Another journey to begin = a healthy start....Just beginning this on Wednesday and today being Friday = I already lost 1 (one) pound! Great way to begin!!! I know I'm way above the weight I should be! snacking now is: nuts, peppers dipped in hummus and some leftover meat! Not sure if I'd invite anyone for dinner!!! Not yet.....
