I’m still in the learning phase of managing the website.

A couple of things:

1) My resignation: I plan on posting more information on my resignation soon. It is currently being reviewed. And, in a couple of months I will be able to provide more detail.

2) My weight loss - and the food pyramid: I am convinced our nutrition teaching in America has it wrong. The food pyramid that came about in the early 1960s has lots of carbohydrates at the base and only a little meat/animal fat at the top. I will post more on the science behind this in the near future. I am down 30 pounds since September 1, 2024. I have been eating a ketogenic diet and have been doing Intermittent fasting. I am lifting weights and walking regularly. I haven’t felt this good in years. I am physically and mentally up to practicing medicine. As I have mentioned, I will return to Mosaic under the right circumstances (more to come on this down the road). For now, click “read more” for a YouTube documentary regarding nutrition (this isn’t science based but raises questions about our current nutrition recommendations.)

3) My walk with God: I have the total peace of God in my heart. This includes my leaving Mosaic. I am in the process of writing a Bible apologetics paper that covers topics that many other works don’t cover well. My time away from practicing medicine will enable to me to do some serious work on this. (FYI: What is apologetics? Apologetics is quite literally defense of the faith; the Greek word apologia means “defense” as a lawyer gives at a trial. In every generation, people face the challenges, questions, and concerns of the gospel message of the Christian faith.)

Friday was my last day in the office seeing patients. As I have told many of you, under the right circumstances, I would love to come back to Mosaic.

Right now, I’m learning how to use this Website my grandson, Ethan, has made for me. As I get better, I plan to be active at posting things about Medicine, My Christian Walk, Weight Loss, Mosaic - etc.

Please bear with me as I learn to use this Website
