Makes Me So Sad...

There are days I want to shout from the roof tops about Julie and her program! I want to tell every overweight person I see about it and tell them how it works!!

But, like my friend Richard Simmons, I do not say anything to anybody unless they ask me first. And even then, I am careful what I say.

I have always felt a bond with morbidly obese people. I could feel their shame, embarrassment and know how they were feeling walking into a room or restaurant or where ever. Not looking people in the eye or not wanting to attract attention, hoping people wouldn't notice us or make a comment. Hoping we would fit into a chair, seat or down an aisle. Not going to the doctors because of the lectures we would get. Hoping no one would make a comment to our spouse or our children or our parents about our weight, then hearing the comment and the utter horror and embarrassment that they have to put up with comments about our weight.

But now I really feel for them and all of us. It makes me so sad at how we are tricked into thinking we are eating healthy, and we are not.

I feel sad that morbidly obese people are viewed as lazy, no will power, when I now know that isn’t true. It is the so called healthy food we are eating that make us out of control. Granted, there is always an exception to the rule.

How can our government allow so much junk in our foods. High fructose corn syrup is poison. All types of flour is not good for us. Sugar is deadly. Artificial sweetener is poison. And the list goes on…
and don't even get me going on all the quick weight loss, money grabbing empty promise weight loss programs out there!! That is a topic for a whole other post...

Makes me sad. I thought I was feeding my sweet innocent babies so healthy as they were growing up.

I see people in the grocery stores talking about how this is healthy because it is low cal or fat free. Makes me want to cry.
Advertisements for some foods just makes me stare in disbelief!! It is thrown at us from all sides...

I never knew how deceived we were until I went to Julie's classes. I am SO VERY THANKFUL that I was led to Julie’s office and program!

There are so many articles, doctors reports, reports from scientists and so much proof that this is the way to eat. I am amazed.

Makes me want to shout out from the roof tops.

Makes me wish there were more Julie’s around to spread the word and her gift.

Makes me certainly not trust the food industry.

Makes me want to hug all the people out there who are suffering as I did most of my life with their weight.

  1. My sentiments exactly! I see so many people eating just fruit and yogurt for lunch and think where is your protein?

    I'm so thankful for Julie, I'll meet you on the rooftop and we can shout together!

    1. Lynn, looks like more will be joining us on the rooftop!!!

      I was grocery shopping today and happened in the aisle with gluten free stuff. So many overweight people in that aisle reading the labels. I know they heard going gluten free will help you loose weight. So flying out the stores are gluten free cookies, brownies and snacks. I could just cry!!!!!!

    Well, make room on that rooftop because here I come to join you. My Sister in law died of complications due to morbid obesity. Her daughter, my niece is 31 years old and weighs 400 lbs. She will have the 'sleeve' surgery this month to lose weight as she and her (skinny) husband are trying to have a baby. It's so very hard. Let's hope all will turn out ok.

    1. Trudy, how sad. I am so sorry about your sister in law... That would have been me if I hadn't found Julie. I still hope in my heart it isn't to late and not alot of permanent damage has been done to my body with my lifelong past of obesity.

      and your poor niece!! Don't they see how well you are doing? Those surgeries are only a temporary fix. Julie said she sees many who have had weight loss surgery. Will be praying for them!! Breaks my heart...

  3. So beautifully said! When I think what I have put into my family's and my own body over the years in the "name of good health" it makes me shudder! Thank Heavens for Julie! I'm so glad that I found her - better late than never! You'd better make room for me on that rooftop too :-)
