ok, I finally truly figured this out!

I am feeling overweight, but all other evidence suggests otherwise. The most important factor was that my Pat. Blessing and my father and my son are all against my starvation approach. My blessing promises me necessary health so, I need to trust that, and I tried, but I just feel like I need to be doing something. So, I prayed alot, and kept researching things, like why my body seemed to do the exact opposite of what all the medical advice online says. Like how I had a spike in glucose after 3 days of fasting, and I still had not switched into ketosis, but It had honestly worked amazingly before! What is wrong with me? I thought that maybe I had a fat resistance, like some people do with glucose, but I found a few extremely heart-felt and very interesting things that as I pondered for a while I concluded once again that menopause had completely ruined my metabolism...uh, and my fasting was making it worse. But, it is like growing out your bangs, it will be fine, but you have to go through this really terrible phase when just resulting them would solve things. So, I have learned that it is lack of calories/nutrition that has caused me to go into starvation mode and fasting panics my body, and I really gain the weight, oh well. I've already decided that exercising is not going to be my life long solution, so it is like trying to grow out my bangs, I must cut out the excessive exercise and get more food and vitamins. One girl mentioned that she found that the only way out of her plateaus was to defend, and then start the whole routine over and it would start working again. So, for my son I say he was right, I need to at least get 2,000 calories per day, though it might seem hard. It really isn't if I eat normal meals. But, I just KNOW that fasting is the best way to take care of my body. And the fact that I believe that helps to make it happen. My Bishop. Bishop Weeks mentioned in a testimony once that he believed that fasting was God's tool and that it had been a blessing in his life. And, another woman who had miraculously improved her physique told me that she had done it through intermittent fasting. So, I am learning how to do it in moderation, and not to extreme. But. It is hard for me to not think, "well, if a little is good then, I will do alot.".
