avoid all industrially produced meat. battery chicken and eggs, farm

fish etc. is no different. all the animals are fed a poor quality feed

- you are what you eat

take it easy Brena! Just walking is probably best now until you lose

the weight by making dietary shifts and nutrient supplementation.

Walking uphill is particularly good. You are already carrying quite a

load.

 

for you sweat on your face and armpits is enough.

 

as you lose more weight thru diet emphasize the weight bearing as

opposed to aerobics - its a better way to train muscle.

probably a rebound reaction. Eat spicy herbs like cayenne, horseradish

(e.g. wasabi) and ginger to get the mucus flowing, but don't over do

it. Use jala neti (nasal irrigation w/ isotonic water), and steam

inhalation. Take vitamin A, C, E and zinc to restore mucosal function.
