Anything is possible
When You Believe!
The lady to the left holding the baby is my dear friend Karen Drucker.
In 2008 I was the Director of Music Ministries at The Center For Spiritual Living in Seattle WA. Karen was a guest performer.
She came to me very concerned about the weight I had gained
and flat out looked me in the eye and said
"I don't want to lose you!"
You see, I had ballooned up to over 350 lbs and no one said anything but Karen. This is were my story of transformation begins.
I had been very unhappy for a number of years. In a relationship that had not been working for quite some time, struggling with various vices, gambling, cigars, red bulls and a serious eating disorder.
It was not like I was not aware of the problem! The simple things became more and more difficult like climbing the stairs to my office which was on the second floor.
When I found myself waiting for the elevator to take me up 24 steps, and having to be given a seatbelt extension on the airplane because the average size belt could not fit around me, or having to shop at Big and Tall stores it would have seemed like enough! But it was not.
Karen had mentioned to me that she had lost a dear talented friend from obesity and was afraid for me. Still I kept stuffing my feelings and emotions down with food....ALL THE WRONG FOODS!!
​
In 2009 I had an ischemic event (mild heart attack) I was on prescription drugs for high blood pressure, blood thinners and sleeping pills. I was given the typical prescribed diet that doctors give while telling me I will be taking these drugs for the rest of my life. Karen's words were ringing in my ears "I don't want to lose you" But it really didn't resonate until I realized that I had already been lost to myself!

When you are over 350 lbs wearing XXX-Large clothes with a 54 size waist what do you do??
​
I had no will power but I did have my music! The songs I had written after discovering the new thought/ancient wisdom principles were my saving grace. These songs were downloaded to me as if my God had planted the solution in fertile soil waiting for the right conditions to spring forth.
My struggle became one of my greatest victories. I had a dog at the time that I bonded with. This dog was a friend who accepted me as I was and I loved her.
Then one night as me and my dog were watching tv I received a revelation while watching a program about how the animals we eat are harvested.....I got physically ill. In that moment I realized that there was no difference between a dog and a cow! a cat or a lamb! These sentient beings gave birth, loved their young, communicated with others, even other animal of different species. This is where I decided to never eat another mammal.
My compassion for my fellow sentient beings was the impetus for my transformation.
​
So my research began. How can I survive without bacon, steaks and ribs?
I learned so much about nutrition in such a short time it blew my mind!!
I started juicing after watching the movie Fat, Sick and Nearly Dead. Within 2 months I lost 20 lbs!
My mind was clearer and I started decreasing my medication.
​
The more I dug the more I found. It was not pretty. The people we depend on to give us accurate information were in the pockets of big Pharma! The doctors were regurgitating data that had been regurgitated to them. The pharmacist were drug dealers with a licence. I and a lot of us were at the mercy of men who knew nothing about healing, only handing out a drugs to mask a symptom. I learned it was in the best interest of the doctors to keep us somewhere between alive and dead. Healing was not what most were taught even though the father of modern medicine Hippocrates c. 460-377 bc stated "Let Thy Food Be Thy Medicine" Holistic medicine has been attacked and suppressed. Now we are waking up to who we really are and it's never been a better time to take control of our destiny.
​
During this transformative season I wrote and produced the CD "When You Believe"
The songs "Conscious Consciousness" "When You Believe" "It's A New Day" and "Thank You God For Everything" became the soundtrack of my life. I walked many miles writing, singing and listening to these songs.
To date I have lost 120 lbs and I don't diet! I am in better condition now than I was 15 years ago.
​
Here on my web site I will be posting life saving information to help those who are suffering from the misinformation given to us for the sake of profit. health is our right! God has given us everything we need to thrive and live abundant lives.

Genesis 1:29
King James Bible
And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.
​
Why do we go to church praising God and leave to eat fried chicken and ribs?
I have changed my thinking and changed my life. You can too if you throw away what you have been taught and go back to mother earth for her instruction.
I am posting links to valuable information in the hopes that all who visit this site will benefit from my transformation.
Peace and Infinite Blessings to all!
