Yoli Day 8

Posted by 2DI4 at 11:45 AM

While I am disappointed to be living in Logan STILL, I am very grateful to Lori who made me think logically and realize what I already know but didn't want to admit which is the best thing for me to do right now is remain here. I have to make myself love it here and the only way that'll happen is if I make more money which means rocking the real estate thing. It's not like I can't still sell real estate in Salt Lake City.

While I have yet to see my BS take a significant dive I like the good eating habits the Yoli program develops. I've always tried to eat 6x a day since when I did Body 4 Life. I eat sooo much spinach now thanks to the Death to Diabetes book I read when I was first diagnosed. The free meal and free day I'll eventually enjoy is something I want to make a regular part of my lifestyle. My friend and coworker Sharon has had type 2 diabetes for years. She told me not to worry too much about my blood sugar if it is under 200 because I think even with her medication she still gets over 200.

I figure I probably had diabetes for a long time and didn't take medication until I was diagnosed. I want to bring it down WITHOUT medication. I want my body to be used to a healthier way of eating. Passion is super. I don't get tired during the day from what I used to drink Diet Dr. Pepper for. I know how horrible that was. If I got in an accident then instead of blood they'd find Diet Dr. Pepper flowing through my veins. All the Yoli products comply with Death to Diabetes. I REALLY like that. There really isn't much difference between my carb and protein days. Last night I bought a low-carb burger at Carl's Jr. That just means there's no bun and it's wrapped in lettuce. It was delicious. They will make any of their burgers in a lettuce wrap.

The only thing different I do on carb days is eat broccoli instead of spinach BUT I really like both. I'm glad I didn't do Yoli without the approved veggies. I HAAAVE to eat some sort of veggie ANY time I have protein.

Helaman 5

4 And it came to pass that Nephi had become weary because of their iniquity; and he yielded up the judgment-seat, and took it upon him to preach the word of God all the remainder of his days, and his brother Lehi also, all the remainder of his days;
 5 For they remembered the words which their afather Helaman spake unto them. And these are the words which he spake:
 6 Behold, my sons, I desire that ye should remember to keep the commandments of God; and I would that ye should declare unto the people these words. Behold, I have given unto you the names of our first aparents who came out of the land of Jerusalem; and this I have done that when you remember your names ye may remember them; and when ye remember them ye may remember their works; and when ye remember their works ye may know how that it is said, and also written, that they were bgood.
51 And as many as were aconvinced did lay down their weapons of war, and also their hatred and the tradition of their fathers.
Whatever is strong enough to lead to action is awesome. Preaching the gospel has that effect on EVERYONE, the person being taught AS WELL as the person sharing. One of the reasons why I love missionary work so much is the multitude of opportunities it gives for you to share your testimony about various things. To feel the spirit confirm to you the truthfulness is incredible. Like Boyd K. Packer recognized in his talk The Candle of the Lord, it is the ultimate buzz!!! He may not have used those words to describe the feeling but essentially that's what he said.
