Subversive Health

So, just a week ago I said I was CHEATING on the fiber. I mean I eat a lot of veggies and it still wasn’t enough so had ordered fiber gummy bears.

But, that is SLOW even nowadays. So I went to Costco and picked up these.  

One week later I am three pounds lighter. And that was this morning! It is now5:00 p.m. and I haven’t eaten . . . not hungry!

OK! OK! I have known for years that fiber is important. I think our Paleo ancestors ate around 100 grams of fiber a day — compared to our 15 or 20. I understood that our gut micro biome needs fiber for the bacteria to grow on. Kind of like coral reefs for tropical fish.

But, knowing wasn’t helping.  Funny how that works.

My oldest daughter and health advisor said that starting iodine supplements a month before prepared the way. No doubt that helped . . . as well as the omega 3 I’ve been on for years. 

Simply, by “cheating” and adding 15 to 20 additional grams of fiber to my daily intake I have lost weight and have less belly fat/bloat. It feels GOOD (strange, too) to suck in my belly and have it go in.

So, I thought WHY NOT SHARE THIS INFO?  Good luck to us all!  (I’ll report in next week.)
