January 14, 2008 I started McDougall. I was a fan since 1997 and had some previous experiences with this nutrition plan. I cold turkeyed off of Prilosec for reflux. I began to heal right away and it did take time and adherence. I especially had to learn that certain foods that are otherwise deemed healthy can be bad for my reflux. Learned all that. During these last 23 months I lost 28 pounds, my blood pressure which was already good became spectacular and my cholesterol has dropped 50 points. A bonus is that the arthritis in my feet has eased up by at least 75
% . It is still there but I don't think about it. The swelling is way down and life is grand! my sugar was also good...not borderline...but it was climbing and now it is DOWN to where it belongs.
I dropped from Squeezing myself into a size 12 to being comfortable in a 6 petite. I can take long walks without any problem. (I used to be a whimp) and I am pain free in my stomach and esphaugus.
I feel like I have given myself the gift of LIFE. Anyone can do it. It's free!
