[Everything doTERRA] Re: Need all your expert help

I would suggest that you NOT focus so much on losing weight.  You didn't gain weight overnight, and you won't lose it overnight either.  Instead focus on eating right and getting healthy.  When I first started with doTERRA I used the oils too liberally, which triggered detox--something I did not yet understand, so I was very uncomfortable for a while.  

I counted calories for years, and at best, on 1500 calories a day, I could not lose more than 1/2 pound a month, but if I "fell off the wagon" the weight plus more was right back overnight!  And, like you said, the excess is all packed on right around my middle.  I started LLV almost a year ago and stopped all my other supplements.  My blood tests are all positive.  I didn't start really losing weight until I started detoxing about six months ago--GX and PB, lemon in water. I dropped 10 to 15 pounds over a 2 to 3 week period.  The last place you lose fat is the abdomen, where all the waste is stored.  

At the moment my blood sugar is normal, I am within 6 pounds of my normal pre-marriage weight (that was 58 years ago), I have been able to stop the prescription meds I was taking.  I am still having some withdrawal from lorazepam (Ativan)--weakness, tiredness, upper back pain--BUT I am able to fall asleep at night and stay asleep.  If I wake up for a bathroom stop, I go right back to sleep.  This was a huge problem for me.  I can now see a light at the end of the tunnel.

It's really, really hard to exercise when you are not feeling well.
