  • Initially I went onto XENICAL weight reduction medication, which cost me $350.00 for a 10 week period commencing on 14th January 2005, after which I stopped the XENICAL medication as I felt the medication was not helping me.

  • I commenced taking Two (2) Bisalax (Laxative tablets) and Two (2) Uremide 40 MG Fluid Tables daily) and began to consuming large quantities of water, I am not a keen, water drinker so decided to make Ice Cubes and pour over the Ice Cubes, a special fruit juice drink puree, consisting of; (Juice of 3 Fresh Oranges, 2 Kiwi Fruit, and Pulp of 2 Passionfruit for flavour). (See Details Below) I placed the fruit into a blender and made a Fruit Pulp, which I added to Two (2) liters of Cold Water, (I also added two (2) Sachets of Equal (Sugar Replacement to the 2 liters of Water). I have been drinking an average 4 liters of this juice per day plus the water of the Ice Cubes. I have found this "juice" to be a form of food, and has staved off hunger pangs! When away from home I use Extra Sugar Free chewing gum. My mouth became very dry because of the fluid tablets, so the ice cubes, fruit juice and chewing gum were the answer to stopping my hunger for excess food, and kept the saliva in my mouth at a correct and comfortable level. My energy level has increased dramatically, and now I have a desire to live, and enjoy life, instead of going to bed and hoping I would not wake the next morning.

  • Today (Sunday 24th April 2005) was a very joyous one for me, as most of you are aware I have been experiencing obesity for the past twenty nine (29) years or so, and recently seriously went on a weight reduction "Diet", as my Doctor warned me that there was little that could be done for me if I did not reduce my weight, and my prospects of a reasonable quality of life was extremely limited. I was on maximum dosage of all medications! As far as I am concerned weight loss is all a "Mind over Matter" deal and nothing more. I started my weight reduction Diet following my Birthday Party Dinner night at the Hervey Bay Boat Club [My weight at the time was approximately 125 KG] (September 3rd 2002) by simply changing from "Full Cream Milk" to "Lite Milk" (which has a Fat Total of 3.5g per 250ml serving, and/or 1.4g per Serving of 100ml). I suffer from Mature Onset Diabetes Type 2, and had reached a point where I was on the absolute maximum dosage Insulin (Humulin 70/30) as I was already administering 60 Units AM and about 70 Units PM.

  • As of today I am now Injecting 2 Units of Insulin AM and PM, my Blood Sugar Levels are now normal, I have an appointment my Treating Physician on Wednesday 27th April 2005, and I am praying that he will tell me I will no longer have any need for the Insulin Injections, the part of my live that I hate so much, and used to put off and/or avoid the injection as long as I possibly could. My Doctor had previously informed me that if I could reduce my weight to 82 KG then I may be able to stop the Insulin Injections.

  • Back in September 2002, on my Doctors advice I began using "Lite" instead of "Full Cream" milk, as I am addicted to Coffee, the change in milk did help and I began to slowly lose some weight. As I was an un-stable Insulin dependant Diabetic, and suffered with degeneration of my spine (documented proof attached), which stopped me from doing any exercise to assist in my weight reduction, other than occasionally riding a pushbike! A Friend, recently bought me a new Mountain bike to enable me to commence light exercise on the bike! Since 12th August 1998, I experienced on many occasions internal stomach haemorrhages which required more than 70 blood transfusions, (At the Hervey Bay Hospital - I have records of admissions and prognosis, and treatments) this continued up to February 2003! I have not experienced any further haemorrhages since then.
    Friday 17th November 2006 = I have now reduced my weight to 83kg, so I am feeling so much better! Previously 135kg now 83kg = loss of 52 Kg! NOTE: New information at bottom of page!

Below: Ingredients for "Diabetic Fruit Juice" Food Supplement!
You require, Oranges, Kiwi Fruit & Passionfruit! When "Juiced" add the Orange Juice to a Blender or Food Processor! Slice Oranges and Juice them, removing all "pips"
 
  • Peel and "dice" the Kiwi Fruit, and add to the Orange Juice in a Food Blender or Processor. Place the "pulp" of the Passionfruit into a steralised bottle, and then add the blended "Orange Juice with the added Kiwi Fruit which has been pulped! Then add two (2) Sachets of Equal (Sugar Replacement) to a two (2) liter bottle, add a small amount of water, shake and then add the "Fruit Pulp", fill the  bottle with "Cold Water", pour over "Ice Cubes" sit back, relax and enjoy, and lose weight!

  • At the bottom of this page there is a list of the medication I was taking daily, hopefully within 3 more weeks I will no longer have to have Insulin Injections! Because of the acute nature of my illness and the deterioration of my health, it was necessary for me to have "Home Care" (copy of letter attached in "My Resume".

  • The Picture of me on the "Right" was taken outside "Sprake & Co. Real Estate, 331 The Esplanade, Scarness, Qld 4655, on Tuesday 17th May 2005, the reason I had this picture taken was that I am now 80 KG. On Wednesday 12th January 2005, I agreed with my treating Doctor, to seriously go on my diet, rather, that muck about and ruin my lifestyle. At that date I was 96 KG, so in the period from then until today 17th May 2005, I have lost 16 KG, by using the Diet outlined within this web page. PLEASE if you decide to go on this diet, make sure your treating Doctor is in agreement with you making the changes and ensuring you are capable of going onto the diet. My life style has changed dramatically, and I have more energy, can walk as far as I wish, and not suffer loss of breath, and I am NO LONGER on Insulin Injections! Sincere thanks to all who have assisted me... Sincerely .........   George Burnett - 17th May 2005

  • ANNOUNCEMENT: Wednesday 18th May 2005 - I am very pleased to inform you that I consulted with my treating Doctor this morning, and am very happy to advise that my weight of 80 KG was confirmed, proving that I have now lost 16 KG (35.2 Pounds - Old Scale). I can thoroughly recommend the Fluid Weight Loss program that I entered into. My life style is totally different, I can now walk and not feel puffed out, I am also back riding a push bike, and really enjoying it. Just not having to Inject Insulin twice daily is a "BOOM" you have no idea how much I hated giving myself injections, it did not hurt, but it was a necessary medical program I hated so much. My Doctor advised me today that I now have the Blood Pressure of an 18 year old youth, I no longer have a Cholesterol problem, but I am still taking 2 Jezel tablets daily to ensure that no fatty tissue builds up in my system. Today I was told to discontinue taking the Frusemide (Fluid Retention) (2 Daily); Dimirel - Diabetic Tablets (1 Daily); Bisalax (Laxative Tablets) (4 Daily) and the Span K - Potassium Chlor (2 Daily). I am really happy about that! Nine (9) tablets a day less than I was on. Remember I have also been taken off INSULIN, and my Blood Sugar Levels are SPOT ON! So to all the people that are trying my diet out, I wish you all the best and hope and pray that you achieve good health as I have. A Special Thanks to all of my friends that assisted me with the best possible result I could ever ask for. Sincerely ... George Burnett ... 18th May 2005 -- 5:31 PM.

Below details I sent to my friends by Email Wednesday, 29 June 2005 5:20 PM
  • Hello All

    Here is my best news ever. Today I had an appointment with Dr. Andrew Hunt, and my weight was 77 KG, remember it was not that long ago I was 125 KG, in fact just prior to Christmas. I have attached 2 Digital Pictures that were taken this afternoon by my neighbour.

     From the medical point of view, I am now only on 2 Diabetic Tablets of a morning and 1 Diabetic Tablet afternoons. I am now totally off Insulin, and have dropped more than 25 tablets per day. Dr. Andrew Hunt jokingly said to me this morning "George you are as healthy as an 18 year old", I laughed, so decided to test his words out, instead of driving to the Chemist I decided to walk with "Bartie" on my shoulder. For those who don't know who Bartie is I am attaching a picture as well. Thanks sincerely to all for your good wishes and help guidance and assistance during my weight reduction.

    Hope you are all well and happy,

    Sincerely

    George Burnett

  • Update, Friday 12th August 2005 - I had an appointment with my Doctor on Wednesday 10th August 2005, and I am now 76 KG, Doctor said I think if you get your mass down to 75 KG, we will be able to reacess your medication. So I am looking forward to that. My blood pressure is now stable at 120/80, and I am soon to turn 67 years of age. My tolerance level has increased beyond all possible reasoning, riding my push bike, walking freely any where I wish, where as I experienced difficulty walking across the road to the beach, in front of my unit, approximately 30 "paces", I now walk to the local shops and do not experience any difficulty what-so-ever. PLEASE if you are thinking about going onto the Fluid Diet I went on, to get my weight down, ONLY do so with the approval of your treating physician. Cheers, George Burnett .. Friday 12th August 2005. NOTE: My Blood Sugar Level test this morning was 4.4 mmol. [Note: I entered Hervey Bay Hospital end of May 2006 and was put back on insulin to enable me to have a procedure, I straight away began putting weight back on].

  • On 30th May 2006, I was admitted to Hervey Bay Hospital [following another internal hemorrhage] for internal examination. during my stay in Hospital the Doctors took me off my tablets and put me back on Insulin. This caused me some problems in that I began putting weight back on, thankfully I spoke to my Doctor, who could not understand why I kept falling into a heap on the floor. We checked my medication and it was established that the Insulin I was prescribed was not dispensed as per the Prescription, and four (4) of the prescribed tablets were dispensed incorrectly by the Pharmacy, this was causing me to collapse. So if you are experiencing any abnormal effects such as this check your Medication!

  • On date 15th November 2006 I was told to stop having the Insulin Injections, as it was found on Monday 13th November that the Medication was incorrect. My weight is now back to 80 Kg so if you go back to my original weight of 135 Kg and now my 80 Kg I have lost over 55 Kg. I am very proud of this, my life has changed so much, can now walk without loss of breath and can even ride by Bike again. I really recommend this diet to anyone who has similar problems to what I have. BUT PLEASE tell or ask your treating Doctor before you commence the diet. Sincerely George Burnett .. Thursday 30th November 2006.
