How to remove intermittent headers from data

I have a large .txt file (77,000 rows) with intermittent headers in the data (see attached picture). I'm trying to get all the numeric data into a mx3 matrix. "importdata" works great until it encounters the first intermittent head, and then it stops.
This is what I have been trying, but like I said, it stop once it reaches the first buried header
filename = 'test1.txt';
[B,delimeterOut,headerlinesOut] = importdata(filename);
Load_Time = B.data(:,1);
Load_Displacement = B.data(:,2);
Load_Force = B.data(:,3);

"(see attached picture)" Nothing attached. You need to both [Choose File] and [Insert Image].
