  • Dear Moth, I am really sorry about your ordeal today. You handled the sitation very well. There are certain people whom you cannot convince because they are so narrow minded. They had absolutely no right to critisize you. I’ve been in similar situat…

  • Most of the days I do eat very simply. a few pieces of fruit, a salad. My salads are very simple too, maybe a tomato with cucummber and some olive oil. The most “complicated” recipe that i’ve been making lately is zucchini spaghetti with tamoto sauc…

  • I don’t like to eat bananas by themselves. If I make a smoothie, maybe once a week, than I might use one. I like juicy fruits, bananas are too dry for me.

  • Yes, thank you! This is my favorite place to “hang out” =)
  • I feel the same way troubble. I think I eat enough. If I’m hungry I eat something. I don’t feel that I’m restricting my diet in anyway. I feel healthy, energetic with 800-1000 calories. Reading some of your posts I see that everybody is very active …

  • My God Joyce, that’s one huge salad there! See, I am not moving as much as I should. At work I’m sitting most of the time, 7-8 hours, or I take my kids to baseball, where again I sit on my butt for two-three hours. The only excersise I get lately is…

  • I don’t count the calories either, but I am bellow 1000. I tried to do the 8-1-1 and counted maybe for 2-3 days, I was at about 800 on avg. I tried to make hummus out of soaked chikpeas and got sooooo sick! I cannot eat any soaked legumes. Also I ha…

  • thanks for sharing this link. I wish I had known earlier, I was in that area on Tuesday. We have one raw restaurant in Sarasota too and is absolutely lovely! http://www.veggiemagic.com
  • Thanks for all the suggestions! I assume you all line dry your clothes. Do you need to iron? (I hate that part)

  • thank you clr! I never heard of these before. I’ll check the healthfood store. Are your clothes soft after line drying?

  • I think this would be great. I like to look at before and after pictures. It surely is a great inspiration.
  • TomsMom, thank you!! I breastfed both my sons until they were almost two years old. Never had any problems, they were hardly ever sick. Now one is 12 and the youngest one is 7 and they are happy, healthy kids. Breastmilk is the only best thing for b…

  • That’s too funny!!! “No reading material in bathroom” I love that one!!
  • Mammamilk, I just read that article too. It is scary.
  • I’ve been following this thread now, actualy since it ’s been started. Kevlar, I must say that I truly enjoy your posts. I do agree with you 100%. In a previous thread, (I think it was about Palin), I said the same thing. It doesn’t matter who is el…
  • Well put jkd…soccer801.
  • I do hope you are wrong reneschwartz, but it does seem that this crisis was planned somehow. Melaverde, exactly that is what I was thinking. I can’t believe the bankers did not see this houseing bubble.
  • JoyceH, yes I agree. I have Chineese aquaintances and they are wonderful people. Also if we look back in history we see all the great inventions they had hundreds of years before the West. They had and still have an amazing culture! Their philosophy…
  • Reneschwartz – and what do You think?
  • I think we are in serious trouble. I also think there will be great shifts in world powers. We’ll see China emerge as one of the greatest economical and military force. Maybe in the next 30 years.
  • Thank you jellibi for this topic! You’re right, we attract the things into our life that our mind is preoccupied with. Yes, we should concentrate on what we would like to have and achieve not what we don’t like. Aspire – what a wonderful “wish list”…

  • Thanks Mamamilk! I live in Florida and we have fire ant hills all over our yard. Did you just sprinkled gorund coffe on the nest? Do you know any cockroach repellent by any chance???? I’m ashmed, but must admit that those are the only insects that I…

  • Wow, this thread has doubled overnight! First of all I must say that jaymz72 comment was absolutely awfull! I can’t believe he just said that. What a character???!!! After some of the replies to my note I thought I am the only one seeing this world …
  • Wow, it took me almost an hour to read this thread. I am with you jayms72 on this issue. I do believe our govmnt had to do a lot with 9-11. Unfortunately I don’t like any of the candidates. But I also think it doesn’t matter who will be the presiden…
  • I invited my co-worker to a raw restaurant happy hour. He enjoyed it very much. Although I know he will never become raw, he already made some changes in his lifestyle. He uit smoking and stopped drinking coffee. He also eats more slads and fruits. …

  • Artzyfartzy (love your name! =) ) I quit in May and for two weeks I didn’t do well at all. I had migraine, and horribble muscle aches! I could hardly walk., I felt like I was cut in two by a saw at my lower back. Crazy! Mentally, the way I keep away…
  • Oh, I hear you Izhpt! Though I haven’t had coffee since May, I still miss it. I miss the ritaul, the taste, the smell. I miss going to the cafe with my friends. When we do go, I drink tea, but it’s not the same.
  • Jellibi – thanks for posting this!
  • AAH, it’s great! I just started this morning and can’t wait to do it tomorrow again. I read on a website that you are suppose to do it in the am. Can it be done at night too? or anytime?
