Okay, my journey started 4 years ago (2005) when I met my hubby. We used to travel the mountains alot during the summer and when we went there I met all kinds of unique people some good some ya know..lol..anywho, first I went vegetarian I lost like 30 lbs. but I was eating stuff like boca burgers, morning star, soy based products, still ate cheese and all that nastiness...well needless to say I went back to eating meat gained all the weight back, then I went vegetarian again, ya know the normal yo yo effect diet, I weighed 200 lbs. thats alot for 5'2 lady...I was miserable, depressed, and pretty much hated myself on the outside and inside bc of failure in the past. Well, I started working at a bakery (go figure lol ) and I started back eating meat again, and all the sugary stuff you know what comes next weight came back plus more and felt even more miserable and depressed.I couldnt figure out what was going on with myself.I know this may be one of them TMI (too much info) deals but anyways here it goes...My female reproductive system was screwed up after years of birth control use and thee SAD diet...I knew something wasnt right with my body bc I never really had a cycle after the birth control use stopped, I was a ball of emotions, plus the massive weight gain that happened over night it seems like...I was 130lbs. then in a 2 year period went to 200 lbs. (((what the *bleep* is what I said too...lol)))I went to my GYNO DR. just to see what was going on, I figured him tell me his thoughts and I find my own cures...Well the results werent what I wanted them to be, he said we need to do more tests, but your symtoms are leading up to Poly Cystic Ovarian Syndrome...more tests later he confirmed it...like this " You will never be able to have kids, if you dont do treatment now you will get cancer and diabetes and die."Of course by then I had done some of my own research on the subject and I had found a Naturopathic Dr. in my area..and was planning on doing my "Curing" there.lolSo thats what I did. She was such an inspiration and helped me rediscover somethings about myself. We did the blood type diet (whch worked until I got soooooo broke from vitamins and supplements) dont get me wrong I was coming off the vitamins fast bc my body was healing in some way...it just wasnt enough for me plus the limitation of foood thing pissed me off (sorry for the language but it did) cant have this cant have that, and I'm talking fruit and veggies bc with my blood type which is A is a vegetarian originated blood type. Steamed broccoli, brown rice, fish is what I ate all the time and soy products! Well that fell thru gained most of the weight back yada yada...yo yoJust a couple months ago I was researching natural cures/ holistic cures for PCOS and saw something I hadnt before this ebook about how to get rid of the condition so I bought it...and I am so glad I did, I probably wont follow it but it brought me here. Then I starting researching more found Angela Stokes story bought it, read it, liked it, continued to research, my friend told me of GI2MR (or whatever) went there then I seen Freelea post about her site and came here and here I heard of 80-10-10, so I am waiting for my lovely book to arrive in the mail so I can continue my journey...trust me when I say it's going to be a grand ole' journey with all you guys here for support!I feel as if my life has a BIG purpose! and for me right now that is enough...I will end this now by letting each and everyone that reads this know we all have a divine purpose on this Earth, and I am blessed to say I have all you to help me find my purpose bc after all everything happens for a reason...I hope your journey has been a blessing ; ) mine has just begun! <<3

Thank you for sharing your story. Great to have you joining this community. I have the greatest fate in you experiencing amazing progress with the low fat raw vegan lifestyle. :)
Thank you all, yes there were alot of grains involved in the blood type diet...I really didnt feel like I was doing something for myself when i did that...i felt like I was being takin advantage of (well after I had decided to quit it)
But I would never ever take back what I have been through bc otherwise I wouldnt be here with all you lovely people!

:( I wish the "experts" recommending this hype knew that grain damage = brain damage.
