I read the books by Harvey and Marilyn Diamond when they first came
out but I just couldn't get with the program. I was overweight and
tired of it. You would have thought that I would have jumped on the
bandwagon. No. I did what my friends did and joined WeightWatchers. I
lost...and gained it back plus more. Fast forward to March of 2005.
Almost 50(in June)and I needed a way to keep kosher. I had converted
from Catholicism to Judaism with my conversion being complete in May
2005. I wanted to have a way that I would be able to eat healthy and
keep myself spiritually centered.
Then I read Harvey Diamond's book 'Fit for Life NOT Fat for Life on
15 March 2005. This time, something happened in me. On 16 March 2005,
I started eating the way that he advocated. I haven't looked back
since! I gave up smoking right after that and I haven't had another
cigarette since. I started reading up on Natural Hygeine and I can't
believe that people are not aware of this way of eating!
I have more energy than ever, my skin has a glow and is clear, the
circles under my eyes are going away and I love the veggies and
fruits. I have told others about this and they are listening. The
best thing in the world is that I am able to keep kosher...naturally.
My Rabbi and Rebbetsin told me that many Jews do this and it is an
excellent way.
A way to be both healthy and spiritual. I couldn't ask for more!
