weight loss

2 easy ways to lose weight of different types to do it with. I may try both and see how it goes- one at a time.  I just need the stuff to do it with:


http://www.findhomeremedy.com/natural-cure-for-weight-loss/ this may take awhile to work. it appeals to me though since it seems the suggestions seem so quick and non hassle. I will try this first. I may add the 2nd one to speed up on things, though this one could just be habit developed daily. It would be so health even if you did not really see a vast amount of weight loss. There are several ideas on the site. Do them all or just try one. I would hazard a guess doing them all would work the best.

The 2nd idea is an actually military diet. I cannot stand complex eating programs and I really do not care for fad diets. (After all the word diet has "t+ die"  in it when it is put backwards) to me this means or stands for "to die" lol. In spite of what I just wrote this is a very simple diet and though I would like to replace the word diet- since to me diet is a horrible term- to clarify and since the page calls it thus- I am using it here. I want you to know what I am talking about so I better use it.

Some great health sites

A diversion from the norm: Ever since I got real sick a month or so back, I have really been studying up on healing stuff I can find in my backyard. I live in rural Missouri so almost anything can be found with a few feet of my porch steps. I do not want to be sick like that again and I also want to get off my dependence on prescription and over counter drugs. Not only do I have bipolar and hate the  medical system, but I also have "brittle" asthma, and chronic pain. Besides these chronic conditions I have some minor ailments. Because my allergies-asthma are my most deadly condition, I am concentrating on it first. Above are 3 Pinterest pins I pinned to my health board.

  1. The first picture,  my focus is the 2nd from bottom "weed" Usnea. it is supposed to be all over U. S. , but I have had trouble finding information on my area about it being found here. I have seen it before, but maybe it was in northwest where I have also lived. Not even the extension office knew anything concerning it. I have read how to make tinctures with this and others following and it is online to order, but I would rather do it myself since it is expensive.
  2. Stinging Nettles:  They are all over and as I am able will do them, I will. Cover plants with alcohol or vinegar for several weeks, then stain liquid through cheese cloth. Toss the plant parts and use dropper They have a lot of properties for many conditions-as does usnea. I would love to have the book.
  3. Butter bur-I am sure I have seen this plant on outings, but my husband did find this one in capsules at a health food store. It is really helping the allergies-It seems, though I am not ready to jump into not taking my asthma medicines....YET?    I hope to find this plant also since the store price was steep. 
For safety, I would recommend you check with your Dr. before trying your own medicinals.
