    Since I've been on this diet: I've lost 27 lbs My hair quit falling out and has gotten thick again Some of my gray hair has returned to brown My periods have gotten easier My skin texture has improved My face is less puffy, even before the weight loss I have more energy My memory has improved I have less aches & pains Two dark moles fell off and have not returned I have a benign tumor (lipoma) and it has gotten smaller I've been able to reduce my thyroid meds, which most docs will tell you just *does not* happen Here's a link to a "before & current" picture: http://www.angelfire.com/oh3/pattysplace/page2.html In the first picture I'm 33 years old, in the second I'm 41 and I weigh more. ------------------ [This message has been edited by Goose Liver (edited July 27, 2002).]

    So far I've used carrots & apples as a base along with something green. I've tried carrot/apple/kale, carrot/apple/celery and carrot/apple/parsley. I like them all. I think I could drink any juice as long as it had carrots and apples in it. I usually only use one apple, then split the juice with my husband so I'm only getting juice from 1/2 an apple. I tried straight kale juice.....I DO NOT recommend it. I took one sip and staggered around the kitchen for ten minutes gagging. ------------------

    MadCat!!!!! I'm so thrilled to find someone doing the Hallelujah Diet!!! I'm not exactly doing the same diet, but the diet I'm on is very similar. (just more disorganized....sometimes I juice, sometimes I drink fruit smoothies......sometimes I just can't eat all the healthy stuff I want to eat!) I am eating a high percentage of raw fruits & veggies. I've given up dairy, except for a little cheese and I've now been meat free for 7 days!!! Still struggling with refined sugar and bread though......but doing better!! ------------------
  6. Well I just can't used to being an "Easterner"....... I don't know where I belong either...... ------------------
  7. (ppsssssstttttt, Brigid.....you only have to hid the chips in the gym......Ed doesn't care if you eat chips in The Shop) ------------------
  8. What wonderful news Lois!!! I'm glad to hear she's coming home. It's *always* safer at home than at the hospital, even though there are times you need to be there. ------------------
  9. What wonderful puppies you have . ------------------
  10. Dee!!!! 95 pounds is tremendous!!! I'm so proud an happy for you. I know how much better I feel after having lost 27 lbs, I can just imagine how good you feel! The diet my doc gave me for my thyroid is low carb and no processed sugars. I did great the first 3 months but now I'm drinking one Pepsi a day and eating bread once a day. I've not gained any weight back but it stopped the weight loss like turning off a faucet. I guess that just shows how sensitive to the carbs and sugars I am. It's got nothing to do with total calories and everything to do with what my body does with processed sugar and carbs. You have encouraged me more than you know. I'm getting "back on the wagon" and taking care of my health!!! ------------------

    Did 'ja notice?

    I don't know what we'd do without our Snow!!! She's terrific! (Welcome back to you Cat...we missed you!) ------------------
  12. Plant carbs don't do the same thing refined flour carbs do......so, you can eat the grass without the bugs if you want, but you know.....you can have the protein so if you really WANT the bugs...... ------------------

    Reci!!!! I am so excited for you!! Your new home sounds wonderful, I know you're going to enjoy bringing her back to tip top shape. We got our home in an estate sale too, and while we didn't do nearly as good as YOU did, we asked the seller for all the appliances right down to the vacuum cleaner. They said yes on everything but the refrigerator, so we walked into an almost fully functional home. Now, I wonder what we could do about that ocean view you need?? lol ------------------
  15. Clean sheets dried on the line..... ------------------
  16. It's been hot & humid here too, but the bugs wait for no one!!! (I've been in the garden a lot) I'm in for 10.25 miles last week. ------------------
  17. Welll, it's kind of a long story....... When my sister, Two Dogs, and I were little girls she used to call me Pat-Tay, instead of my name which is Patty. Eventually, it became patay as in goose liver patay and she eventually shortened it to Goose Liver.......so, in retaliation, I call her Two Dogs and the following joke tells why. Once upon a time, there was this young Indian boy who asked his father how he came to be named. His father said, well, when your sister was born I stepped outside the teepee and saw a doe running through the village. And so, your sister became known as Running Doe. When your brother was born, again I stepped outside the teepee and saw an eagle soaring high overhead. And so, your brother became known as Soaring Eagle. Why do you ask, Two Dogs Mating? ------------------
  18. Uh-oh, you might have to stay up all night posting Snow! ------------------
  19. As I said in my e-mail to you (hope you got it), there are very few things I would hold a grudge for. Having your house burn down and getting sick don't count!!! I've never held that against anybody!!! (((((hugs)))))) ------------------
  20. Yep, just have to get everything moved back in. Look at all the great new space!! Won't some study tables be nice over there by the picture window?? ------------------

  22. I never got to congratulate you on your 47 pound weight loss!!!!! I am so proud and happy for you!!! You must feel great!! So.....HOW'D YOU DO IT!!!?????
  23. Thumbs down on the chips Brigid! LOL Boy, wouldn't it be great if they WERE healthy?? I'm back from my morning walk and feeling great! I'm tolerating the heat much better this summer. Does anybody remember how I exercised so much last summer I got the shingles?? Well......this year NO PROBLEM!!! Woohoo!!!
  24. Hear that sound?????? It's the applause!!!! Thank you both so very much for everything you've done to bring her back.
  25. Hi Gang!! Where can I put this great big fruit salad???
