This Turn-About is More than Fair

They say 'turn-about is fair play...'

My friend's birthday is in May, and she always sends
a present or card to her mother. Sort of a 'turn-about',
thanking her Mom for giving birth to her.

Another lady I know of gave her Mom a great turn-about
this week, too.

Kimberley Locke lost 27 pounds on Celebrity Fit Club.
But she didn't do it for her kids...she did it for
her Mom.

"My Mom is overweight, and she just lost her mother.
She called me the other day and told me the doctor
said she was only a couple of points away from being
a diabetic. And she said to me, 'Well, everyone in
my family's diabetic...'

"And I said, 'Mom, you don't have to be....' Because
I want her to be around forever and see all my
success...because it's her success too."

That's sweet and everything, but how can Kimberley
say that her mom doesn't HAVE to be a diabetic. Since
everyone else in her family is, and she's overweight,
doesn't that mean there's nothing she can do?

Hardly.

Kimberley's got the right idea, and my recommendations
for her mom would be:

1. Listen to your daughter. Heredity is not
necessarily destiny. Especially for diabetes.

2. Commit to losing weight. Deciding to make a
change is more than half the battle.

3. Reduce, avoid and eliminate grains.
Grains are chock full of Omega-6 fats, which
cause inflammation. Studies show that the more
inflamed you are, the more likely you are to have
diabetes.

4. Take pharmaceutical-grade fish oil.
Fish oil is chock-full of Omega-3 fats, which
control inflammation. They also make your cells more
sensitive to insulin, and help you control your sugar
better, too. (but fish is chock-full of mercury and
other toxins, so make sure to get pharmaceutical-grade

5. Drink more water.

6. Move your body.


If Kimberley's mom will do those simple things, it'll
be hard for her body NOT to respond...and she should
be around to see many more of her daughter's successes.

It'll work for you or your mom, too.

Live like You Mean it...

P.S. Why does it work...just those few things?
Because it respects the way your body is designed.
