JJR this is the chameleon in our attitude ... but on the psychical side.. try to become a bit clamer and let your body talk, listen to him and you'll be what he will show to you from Isa
p.s. no judging, no forcings... nada but floatings with your true nature
Oh my body is talking. And it's not happy these last few months. But, maybe that's a good thing. It's helped us uncover lots of stuff and start to work on it. I think it helped us uncover some very pertinent keys lately.
Staying calm through it is my biggest challenge. One time I remember you saying that lamb calms you down. And I have noticed this too. Last week it really helped me.

Ditto....Challenging times for sure. Lamb always makes me feel better too. At least we are working on a solution. Once you know what you are dealing with, it is easier to wage the war. The hard part is knowing that sometimes you do feel worse right before it gets better. We are on our way.
I gotta email you and touch base about tons of stuff.!!!

Ok, I got the results of my Y chromosome from the National Genographic Project and entered them into Swami. I updated my weight and changed the exercise level from none to moderate. Check the % teacher. Swami says that it will give me the GT3 Teacher since I had it programmed but that I am something else! Restart the heart. Rerun Swami without specifying the genotype. It says that I am an Explorer at 39%.
Sorry Teachers I have just left the group. Explorers please make room for an A+ Secretor !!! (Does this make me an honourary nonnie? )
It appears that my screwy lefty, asymmetrical fingerprints, allergies and (I)N(T)P profile has overcome the tendons and low wrist diameter of the teacher. It explains all of the recent medication reactions that I have experienced during the treatment for heart problems (atrial fibrillation.)
I compared the Explorer foods from the Genotype book to my Swami list. Wow. Just Wow. There is quite a difference. The Swami is a blend of Teacher and Explorer. A true understanding of the shades of gray that separate the 2 genotypes. Dr. D is a true craftsman and visionary.
The Y-chromosome haplogroup is interesting. It is common in North Western Europe. The problems with anemia and blood disorders are on my mother's side, not my father's side of the family!! (Note to self, go find the mitochondrial haplogroup.)
Random musings on being an Explorer. "I did it my way." - yup my wife will confirm that Apricots is a superfood (my all time favourite fruit) Carrots, celery and radishes are super foods - I ate them everyday for lunch from high school until a few years ago. Returning to my roots. Buckwheat is still a superfood!
What do ya mean I have to break into a sweat??? Yoga does not involve sweating (hot yoga notwithstanding).
Wow. Deep breath. I can DO this.
Thanks for reading this far.

Good luck and much health and wellness Andrew as an explorer, I guess I could be to an A sec + right handed explorer; asymmetrical, celiac and allergic. BTD A sec for me was pretty good and Teacher cheeses at the best black dots !

Andrew....welcome in our club..but a sechi always stays a sechi ...intp-bro...another warm welcome, enjoy your meats... better to confirm: I do it my way .... we aren't dead until now .....
Question: How long after National Geographic received your kit you got your results?
About two months in a friends' case.

As a male you can get a whole lot more genetic information for the price of testing two haplogroups ($200), by using other companies.
Since National Geographic introduced the test several years ago there has been a substantial reduction in the cost it takes to test genetic information.
With other companies not only will you get haplogroup information for $200, but lots of other genetic information.

Thank you very much Maria. After some further reading and understanding the Explorer lifestyle (diet and exercise) some of it really "talks" to me.

Damon: It took about 1 week to be delivered and then about 8 weeks to do all of the tests and checks before the results were posted. I was not aware of any other gene testing until I read C-sharp's post (above). My goal was to add to the Genographic project (distribution and changes to population through history). It never occurred to me that it would make such a difference to my Swami profile! Definitely unintended consequences.

Thank you for the warm welcome Amazone, INTP-sis. Yes, once a secretor, always a secretor. I read the thread about "you might be a nonnie if..." and some of those things do or did affect / annoy / bother me. So I thought that I could apply to be an honourary (pretend) nonnie. For the red meat; lamb and mutton move from avoid to neutral but there are no superfoods (I must be in that gray area close to Teacher). Poultry superfoods reduces from 4 to 3 (turkey, ostrich, squab) but doubles from 2 to 4 servings per week. Looks like turkey leftovers from Thanksgiving and Christmas had better last a long time! Fish reduces from 6 servings to 4 per week and vegetable protein drops from 9 to 6 servings a week. Due to the milk problem I did not eat any cheeses or yogurt. Now I have to find a good source of goose eggs as whole chicken eggs are only neutral.
Looking forward to "doing it my way", "with a little help from my friends".

Is there a maximum number of times you can edit your account. I am still awaiting my Saliva Test results and didn't print my food list. Every time I click on the edit button to gain access to my food list.

You can edit your SWAMI profile as many times as you want (a few fields are time locked but this is not affected by the number of times your edit your profile).
Very interesting about the y chromosone thing. Hmmmmm...

I was just thinking about this last night, and I think that's what's been bothering me about the whole thing. Because for me I have STRONG qualities of all 3 categories I can be, and I have some MILD qualities of the 4th I could be.
I know for sure I deal with Teacher issues and fit much of the descriptions. I know for sure that the same goes for Explorer and Nomad. Warrior is the one I least identify with, but that doesn't mean it's completely out. I have the unibrow and every once in 3 blue moons, I need a break from meat.
But regardless, I started feeling like I should follow the swami that I feel like I'm being like at present. Like, I think right now I'm struggling with a sluggish liver, a gut that is being too accepting of gunk, and viral stuff. So, I feel like a Nomad right now. Of course I also feel overwhelmed with all the allergens and that's very Explorer. I think when I'm feeling good and in the middle of summer, Teacher would probably fit best, because I'm usually trying to do more than what I should be because I'm feeling better. And it's not even always WHAT I'm doing by HOW I'm doing it. I get all charged up and my movements are quicker and my brain is tweaked out etc. That's totally teacher ish. Now, I'm all like, chilled out, resting, etc. So I don't feel like the teacher diet is right any longer. I followed it for a month and I think I needed the extra carbs. But now I think I need a little more red meat for blood building, less carbs and need to get rid of allergens and toxins. So I need something more like my Nomad or Explorer diet.
So, I think you're right Isa. I feel like I need to be fluid with my choices. And that is a very difficult thing. It's easier on the brain to just follow a list. Plus, it also means I need to understand what the "foods in question" do. Like the few foods that switch positions. Why are blackberries a "black dot" on my Explorer but Neutral on my Teacher and superfoods on my Nomad diet. Things like that. There aren't a lot of things that change, but certain ones do. Avocados are another example.
None of my lists change so terribly that it's like, WHAT DO I EAT? But it does have me scratching my head sometimes. And it becomes more complex than I think someone with ONE blood type. Which may be why I am that much more sensitive to supplements and what not. But even said all that, I bet there are people with one blood type that have these ups and downs and have to figure out what best fits at that point. I don't think the change of seasons only affect AB's.
Eh?
