 Hey, y'all welcome to what Chelsea eats. Thank you so much for joining me today. Feel like I'm so far away from the screen. I could barely see but I wanted to come as usual on Wednesday just to talk to you a little bit about your healing journey, our healing journey. I have some health tips for today and the purpose of this video is to talk to you about, you know, to ask you the question, are fibroids holding you back from your dreams and goals? Not just fibroids, but are your female related issues holding you back from your dreams and goals, whether that be endometriosis, heavy menstrual cycles, PCOS, so very insist whatever that female health issue is. Is it holding you back from the things that you have aspirations for in your life? And before I go into that, I am a certified holistic health coach and I coach women on how to heal naturally from female related issues and I just want to tell you some of the things that I have coming up really soon. On January 1st at 7 p.m. I'm doing a kick sugar, how to kick sugar webinar at 7 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on January 1st. So I have that coming up and there is a foods to avoid to shrink fibroids webinar on January 7th, 2018 and that's going to be at 2 p.m. It's on a Sunday Eastern Standard Time. You can all also sign up for a free coaching call if you haven't already. All the links for these things are in the description box by the way and also you can join the ever-growing Facebook group for foods to avoid to shrink fibroids. The link is in the description box below and if you haven't gotten your foods to avoid to shrink fibroids ebook that is in the description box below as well. But I want to go ahead and get to talking about the subject at hand which is are fibroids holding you back from reaching your dreams and goals and I'm going to tell you a little bit about my story as to how that was certainly the case in my life. I had struggled with female related issues really my whole life but as far as having the heavy menstrual cycles and having fibroids that was a good chunk of my life but it was in the time of my life where I should have been thriving in my career in my family life everything but I wasn't I was sick I was I was depressed I didn't have any motivation I was extremely overweight I don't know if some of you some of you may know my heaviest weight was 217 pounds that's my heaviest recorded weight was a 217 pounds I could have been maybe 10 20 pounds more than that but I didn't get on the scale I certainly have pictures that look like I weighed more than that but I um I don't I can't prove that I weighed more than that because I never weighed myself and the when I was that heavy menstrual cycle I wasn't even thinking about that I was just trying to make it through the day without pain I you know was addicted to ibuprofen I would eat them like candy just so that I could make it through the day I smoked cigarettes like a like a freight train I was extremely emotionally distraught and broken I was in a very terrible place and the female health issues put the icing on top you know I you know was bleeding tremendously sometimes I would bleed and bleed and bleed six months at a time and then it was my period was stop and then I would have my period you know again in 30 days I mean I'd have my period wouldn't have my period for six months and then I'd have it for you know 30 days straight or you know it was just all over the place I mean what wasn't wrong with me and during that time I couldn't think about things I wanted to do I couldn't think about all of the dreams and goals I had in my heart because I was just trying to make it through the day so that was a little bit about that's a little bit about my story so if you find yourself in this situation you have these fibroids you want to have children you can't have children you are bleeding you're using depends you're using you know a couple tampons and a couple pads just to keep yourself from bleeding through your clothes so you more aren't embarrassed if you're you know depressed if you're anemic exhausted your your hair is falling out your skin looks bad if you are in that place and you're overweight and you can't seem to lose weight or stick to your diet no matter what you try to do if that's you then these things are holding you back from your dreams and goals and you have to sit down and weigh out what's actually happening in your life and say am I gonna stand for this am I is this what I'm gonna let my life be and you do have control over the choices that you make you have to control over whether or not you decide to do something about this part of your life and I'm not here to tell you what that decision should be because you know you are the person that makes decisions for your own life but just speaking to somebody speaking from somebody who struggled with female health issues the way I did and a lot of you who watch my videos are you know struggling with those things too make a decision don't keep researching just make a decision you if you're watching this video then you got some tools to heal naturally and I'm sure I'm not the only video that you watch so if you want to hysterectomy if that's your choice then do something about like do do something so that do something about the thing that's stopping you from being the person that you want to be and nobody can make that choice but you so I'm here to tell you I'm here to try to motivate you into action because life is short a lot of us you know we don't get 120 years like some people do and what are we going to do with the time that we have are we going to waste it worrying about these fibroids when and when you know now I know I didn't know before that there is something that you can do about them like really it might take some sacrifice it might take you changing your mindset it might make you it might take you um making some changes in your life that you know aren't easy but it's it's doable and if you really do want to live out whatever that call is on your life and these things these fibroids are the thing that is stopping you you have to you know sit down and make a decision okay what am I going to do about this because there are things you can do but you're the one that has to make the decision nobody can make that decision for you and the longer you wait the worst things get and the longer you wait the more time you waste and you can't get that time back and I wish that so long you know God told me what to do long time ago about these things and I would do it sometimes but then I wouldn't then I would do it and then I wouldn't I'd go back and forth and I finally made a decision and when I finally made a decision that's when I started to get results the fibroids didn't shrink in five minutes but you want to know what happened I started feeling better in five minutes I started feeling better you know and better and better and my life started to change and the things that I wasn't able to do before I started being able to do and I used to be sick and now I'm not sick I used to be exhausted now I'm not exhausted my hair used to be falling out by the handfuls and now I have a head full of hair it hasn't completely come back to the way it used to be yet but it's on its way it's so much better than it was and it just came down to a decision what was I gonna do what choice was I gonna make and in the meantime y'all while I'm talking if you guys have questions please start putting your questions down there and um thank you um I just I mean stop waiting stop wasting time I lost my mother whenever I was she was 50 years old I was 25 years old and it was terrible she died way too young and she didn't have to die and like I was headed down the same road she was you know that didn't have you know I don't have to die in early death just because she did and she chose not to make choices different choices and I love my mother like I wish every day that I could talk to her you know and but we are in charge of our the decisions we make we're in charge we're in charge of decisions of places where we live if we don't like where we live we can make a change where we live if we don't like our job and it's um causing us to get sick then we can change the job like there are things we can do about stuff now there are some things that happen in life that there is nothing we can do about and we have to learn how to accept those things and live with those things and cope with them so that they don't affect our health but we don't have to live in situations that we can change that are affecting us if that makes sense so do you have questions for me for today be

one and sign up for a free coaching call if you haven't already I'd be glad to talk to you about your particular situation if there's questions let me know also if you haven't already signed up for the Facebook group the foods to avoid to shrink fibroids I also go live in there in between 11 and 12 depending on what time I get done with my Facebook live on my what chelsea eats page because I do a what chelsea eats web live video at let's see 11 o'clock and I also go live in the fibroid detox but anywhere between 11 and 12 to it just depends on what time I'm done with that first live video and so if you haven't joined any of those groups feel free to join except the vibrate detox the only way you can be a part of the vibrate detox is if you have purchased the vibrate detox e-course that I have and once you've purchased that you can join the group so that you can get additional support from me in that group any other questions you all some of the questions that I have gotten recently is about the red raspberry leaf tea somebody commented on one of my videos and said that it when they drank it it made their ovaries hurt and I had the same experience when I drank red raspberry tea my whole uterus was hurting when I would take that and I'm not a doctor so you know use your own discretion the reason I think that happens is because when you take the herbs in liquid form like that it goes straight to the area of your body it's supposed to work on and I believe that it went to work on healing and I had pain for you know every time I drink it and even today even though I've been drinking it for years off and on even today if I drink it sometimes I can feel my uterus rumbling and I don't know what that is but what what red raspberry leaf tea does is if it tones the uterus so it's kind of making the uterus fortifying the uterus making it strong and healing it so and and the ovaries so if you do feel pain that's why I believe you feel pain but I cannot guarantee that that's why a person you know feels pain but I felt pain when I drink red raspberry tea and I still drink it and today I don't feel pain but sometimes I will feel rumbling or like just like a maybe a discomfort so yeah that's one of the questions that I got this week and somebody was asking what to eat to make their hair grow back and if it hasn't already posted I do have a video coming up for that as well but please put your questions below I you know I have a few more minutes to be on here if you have questions let's see in January I also have a webinar coming up it's on January 1st 2018 it's going to be at 7 p.m. eastern standard time and it's going to be how to kick sugar for women's health it's one of the things that is wrecking havoc on women's bodies is sugar and it's part of the reason why people have such bad menstrual cycles and why the bleeding and all that stuff but the root cause of all of these female issues is estrogen dominance I mean for the most part I mean there's some emotional stuff that goes along with it but um in lifestyle things that go along with it but it's estrogen dominance so yeah and I have a video I think I talked about that a couple weeks ago there's one about estrogen dominance if you haven't already watched that video any questions and I'm my aunt Connie often watches and she says that she can't comment but if you're out there hello aunt Connie okay y'all since I don't see any questions what you can do is if you're watching after the video is over and you do have questions go ahead and put your comments questions below and I will be happy to answer those after the live is over okay y'all thanks so much for watching and if I oh yeah I'll be back next Wednesday too so say hey Chelsea did you have more than one condition fibroids PCOS I had um you're welcome Stephanie um I had fibroids PCOS I think I had a touch of endometriosis just because of some pain that I had and my doctors said that in my last MRI which was a while ago like almost two years of two two and a half years ago that I had a touch of um a spot that was cancer cancerous the question about the T's I'll get to that in just a second um so they couldn't confirm that it was cancer but from the MRI it looks like cancer to her and she said that the only way that she would know is if they took my uterus out and tested it and I wasn't going to get surgery so I don't know if I ever had if I had it or not she said that it was probably that's probably what it was and but I couldn't confirm it and I can tell you that I don't have the pain that I had in that spot where they were saying that that it looks like cancer so that's so I'm not claiming cancer but that's what she said um the T's what I do with my T's is I oh you're so sweet honey thank you um what I do with the T's is I just um put them all in what fruits and vegetables herbal supplements are best for lowering blood pressure okay um what I do with the T's is whatever T's I want to drink for that day and usually it's about three or four I just put them in the jar and I just pour water over them either at night or first thing in the morning and I let it sit for at least four hours and I strain it and drink it and so I hope that answers your question um I have a video on my channel um of what herb to take and a testimonial of the herb for blood pressure um but the the T that you would drink is hibiscus tea and there is a link in that blood pressure video which was maybe like a month ago that I did the video with the exact herbal um combination that I used for that it's just hibiscus but all hibiscus all teas are not created equal you want to try to buy organic teas and you want to buy them from a good source because what's the drink use of drinking a tea and it's no good it's like eating um vegetables that are GMO vegetables do you understand what I'm saying so it's kind of like you're eating the vegetable but it's like you're getting all the chemicals from the from the GMO vegetable and I'm not saying that you need to drink eat all your vegetables organic or anything like that I'm just saying if you have a choice don't eat a GMO vegetable whether um versus a regular vegetable so I hope that answers your question any other questions y'all because I don't see any more questions I'm not going to just hold hold y'all here um thanks so much for watching don't forget to sign up for the things that I have that are coming up for free and I will talk to you all soon take care y'all
