Generation S for Sick

According to the news on the 700 Club; people between the ages of 30 and 45 fall into category generation S for Sick.  This generation of people are dying younger, developing Rheumatoid Arthritis and auto immune disease.  These people spend too much time on the computer and they eat out more and exercise less.  Their bodies are aging at a rapid rate.

From a physicians, (Dr. Arthur Agatston cardiologist)- point of view on the 700 club; he stated that if he sees a person walk in to his office with a belly, he knows that they are either diabetic or pre-diabetics.  He also indicated that a round belly is part of  a natural mechanism that was intended for people in the times of winter to survive.  Their bodies would  burn the fat during the winter months and they would survive.  This is called Anabolic Syndrome.  Due to the fact that we don't exercise as much.  The belly  is turning into one big toxic chemical; which in turn cause us to die younger and age faster.

Today we are becoming a nation of people with less and less social skills and more about sitting in front of a television, computer or video game,or online chatting.  We need to become more active with our families.  Have vollyball games at a park.  Maybe a family reunion with baseball.  Perhaps take the family swimming at a pool or beach.

We eat fast food more often; when we should eat healthy meals at home.  Some of the healthier food choices are things like:  Nuts, walnuts, avocados, sweet potatoes vs white, whole grain oats is ok for gluten free diet.  You can have oats no cream of wheat.

The breads that are processed today have a protein called gluten.  It makes the grain stronger, but it has an adverse effect on your belly.  The protein sticks to the belly and does not get digested.  Physicians are seeing more and more patients with this ailment called Celiac Disease.  The disease causes bloating, belching, diarrhea and all kinds of intestinal problems.  Most physicians suggest going without oats and whole grains for about one month.   You can choose gluten free items such as:  Chex cereal, Rice bread which is in the freezer isle and waffles in the freezer isle.  You can have corn tortilla instead of white.   Eat Rice bread instead of wheat bread.

Best to stock up on carrots cheekapeas, lental, sweet potatoes, blue berries, raspberries, beans, oats and lastly white rice or brown rice.Choose Olive oil instead of saturated fats or transfats.  If the Olive oil is to bitter for you, try the lighter olive oil.  It's not as strong or bitter.    

You can make peanut butter cookies out of :  (1) cup of peanut butter, (1/2) cup of sugar, (1) egg.  Mold together.  Make small balls about the size of a large gum ball.  Use non stick spray.  Flatten with a fork in a criss cross pattern.   Then bake for 8 to 10 minutes.  Just until light brown.  Let them stand on a cool surface for about 10 minutes.  If you try to eat one to quickly, it will come apart.

Lastly, check out the South Beach Diet.  It's based on a Mediterranean diet.  It's a healthier choice and good for you.  You will lose weight.  You will feel better and have more energy.  There is a book called: South Beach Diet Wakeup call on Amazon.com written by Dr. Arthur Agatston a cardiologist.

Thank you for reading my blog.  I hope it helps you live a longer happier life.

Suicide

Christian Comments

I know there are many people that at some point either thought about suicide or actually tried to commit suicide.  For those people that are hanging on by a thread I have a special message:

Sometimes it seems that wicked people seem to get their way.  They live in nice homes, drive nice cars and don't seem to have a care in the world.  'While good people suffer, illness, pain and poverty.

I am offering you a ray of hope and a promise from God.  He will not forget the wicked.  No one leaves this earth without paying for their sins.  They will be remembered.

So hold on to that Shield and Buckler that God has provided.  It will not let you down and you will rise above all these things and the people that seem to torment you.  

In the end you will get all the Glory..... Believe me.  Don't give up and don't left them win.  God has a promise.  When people leave you, its because he is opening doors so the right person can come in.  When people betray and hurt you.  Bless them and go your way.  Place them in God hands.  He says vengeance is mine!  He says if anyone dare hurt my little ones (righteous ones) it would be better then them to take a stone and wrap it around their neck, because they will not be forgiven.  God will bless you.. Just ask.

Ecclesiastes15-18

15:  All things have I seen in the days of my vanity; there is a just man that perisheth in his righteousness, and and there is a wicked man that prolongeth his life in his wickedness.

  

(There is a good man that suffers because he is good; and there is a bad man that extends his life in evil.

16: Be not righteous over much neither make thyself over wise;  Why shouldest thou destroy thyself?

( Don't be to good nor try to be too smart.  Why should you kill yourself?)

17: Be not over much wicked, neither be thou foolish:  Why shouldest thou die before thy time?

( Don't do too many things that are bad and foolish;  Why should you die before your time?

18:  It is good that thou shouldest take hold of this: Yeah, also from this withdraw not thine hand: he that feareth God shall come forth of them all. 

 (It is good that you pay attention to this:stay strong in your convictions; He that fears God shall overcome- He will rise above them all)

Race Track On My Body - Laughter is good for the Soul!

One of the most amazing events in my life and quite funny in fact are the chasing that Hazel and Sadie do from time to time.  Sometime in the early morning hours if my cat Hazel and my Shitzu/Bishon wake up before me they are off to the races!  

It always starts with a little squeaky bark and a small meow.  Then they try to slap each other back and forth.  I know this because I am desperately trying to ignore them.  Then the chase begins.  They literally run circles around my stomach and feet.  Over and over again.  


In the meantime I'm calming stating, "Sadie! Hazel! Stop it!"  Next thing you know Hazel decides she is going to run over my face.  Thankfully she is de-clawed. Whew!  Sadie however; is not.  Aye yi yi,,,,,,,,,


Thats when, "OK! Thats it! Stop it!"  They'll stop look at me like What!?  Me? What am I doing?  They quickly jump to the floor and its on like Donkey Kong.  Have you ever heard that music with a bunch of violins that sound like bees?  That is the music I hear in my head as I watch them chase each other from the bedroom and to the living room.  This goes on for about 10 minutes.


The run to the table.  Hazel will jump on a chair and try to slap Sadie as she goes by or tries to jump on the dining chair.  All you see is little swipes from underneath the tablecloth.  Sadie is standing on her hinds legs and nipping at the cloth and swipes.


But they love each other.  They even share the window seal if you can believe that.  As you can see they have the same personality.  I hope to post my pictures  at a later date for you to enjoy.  I hope you liked my story.


With puppy love and Kitty love
