My journey will started when we got a retirement home in Florida and I felt like a jealous teenager…

I never imagined that in my 60s, after years of marriage and having children, I would be concerned about my spouse leaving me. But, it turned out to be the finest thing that could have happened!

My mother once said:

“Your body will never be the same after having children.”

She was trying to scare me off boys, but those words stuck with me for the following 50 years!

As soon as I had children, there was my excuse why I struggled keeping the pounds off. I never blamed all the chocolate, soda and ice cream I enjoyed daily.

And every time I tried:

✅Exercise

✅Cutting out sugar

✅Boiled eggs for breakfest

✅Only having healthy, whole ingredients

I saw the scale hardly move week after week, so I remembered what my mother said and went back to eating meals I like.

                                               I was doomed to be overweight for the rest of my life!

The freezing Dakota winters made it easy to overlook my weight, but the warmer summers pushed me to make a change.

After seeing several doctors, I found out that I had high blood pressure and cholesterol.

But these were the consequences of being overweight, not the cause of the extra pounds piling up.

All the tests felt like a waste of money when one doctor told me “that’s what happens when you get older”.

No matter how many more excuses I heard, I never stopped feeling miserable and depressed.

In North Dakota I looked after our home while my husband was always busy working.

Whe didn’t have much of a social life because he had a lot of work meets and events to attend.

Everything changed when we moved to Florida and he discovered his newfound free time and love for life:

He knew a lot of old work colleagues that had retired in the area too. Everyday he met up with them, enjoying the beaches, but for me it was too embarrassing to even think of wearing a bikini.

I couldn’t even relax around our private pool, what would my husband think when he get home?

What he’d think about his wife in comparison to all the other half-my-size women in Florida.

I was feeling hopeless and I finally turned to an old friend from back home.

After hearing me cry my heart out, she told me about a “Simple rice method”.

She explained that it deal with something in the Gut and fixed it. I did not really know what it was, and honestly I could care less at that point. All I wanted to know was how it could help me.

Could it fixed all my problems?

After all, this isn’t the retirement I dreamt of…

Being surrounded by golden beaches that I can’t enjoy.

I Sat at home alone every day, struck with jealousy because I refused to join him and his friends.

Up to that point all I knew was failed diets, useless doctors and health experts advice, felling depressed and hopeless.

But then it was like a switch had been flicked. My gut began to shrink once I started this Rice Method.

I even went to see a doctor again and found out it had reduced my blood pressure and cholesterol down!
