Don't be scammed by big promises of super supplements!
There are many people and companies out there taking advantage of mis or uninformed people, pouncing on them with misleading information about the nutritional value of a plant based diet... you can get all the nutrition you need from eating plants..Cultures who eat a plant/starch based diet don't have our diseases and surely don't have extra cash to buy supplements or claims of a super pill.

DERM TODAY
SO it was my dermatology check up...I went in asked him what he thought about my face... I personally feel that he sees so many faces each day he wouldn't remember one from another.. anyway.. I told him I was going to have him start to work on my lower left jaw spots and the keratosis spot, but they disappeared.. he looked puzzled.. so I explained what I did, he is a doctor so of course he was skeptical... after all there is no job security in having skin clear up on it's own purely through diet, vs treatments with freezing, drugs etc.. haha.. we had a brief conversation after I told him it is a starch based diet, but he wasn't too interested overall.. he told me he didn't need to see me again unless I needed some spots removed.. hehe.. hopefully i won't! yay

EXCITED~
Almost every day now I receive a note, letter, email or phone call from someone who has experimented with this plant based diet plan.
They are always positive and surprised and amazed at how they feel and how easy it is to change a diet lifestyle...
It makes me so happy and I feel so fulfilled in my life to be able to share what has worked for me and my family, with you...With so many "miracles" happening all around me just due to diet, it is something I can't hold back talking about.
Keep up the good work everyone, your body will love you for it, and you will age oh so gracefully!

THIS DOES WORK~ for everyone
I keep hearing " glad you found something that works for you" well having been designed to be a starch eater, what else would "work" for me?
It isn't about amounts or calories, or giving up something it is about what your body is crying out to you to feed it. Crying out? yes, any diseases you may have that are diet related ( diabetes type 2, arthritis,bowel problems,cholesterol, blood pressure etc) are your body crying out to you to STOP WHAT YOU ARE PUTTING INTO IT. I apologize if my ranting offends anyone, but having watched my family be "healed" by plants is enough for me to carry on a blog to discuss and chatter about it.
My brother is a "star mcdougaller" read his story
http://www.drmcdougall.com/stars/050514jeffarmstrong.html
and then I personally have experienced a complete turn around in my health, energy,skin,weight etc...I can't say enough, I admit I am a zealot :) ( is that a good thing?)
good luck to anyone brave enough to make a lifestyle change away from an unhealthy diet to a healthy full lifestyle of energetic living...

PHIL MICKELSON~ professional golfer wish I could share this with him!
I heard on the news this morning that Phil Mickelson ( a professional golfer) was diagnosed with psoratic arthritis. I wish so much I could share this plant based diet information with him so he could get better. His wife is also battling breast cancer ( as I read on facebook?) if they only knew!
My father was cured of his rheumatoid arthritis 30 yrs ago, just by staying away from ANIMAL products... I watched it with my own eyes... and as for me, I have no pain at all anymore in my body since I did away with animal products...it's such an easy fix...
That is the only BAD THING about this lifestyle, it's hard to talk to people because they don't want to change what they believe is right and healthy ( or not)... all we can be is examples to them. It's hard not to be a zealot for something that works miracles and is so simple as diet change...it sometimes makes you feel so dumb that you weren't paying attention to your body screaming out for help...

YIPPEEEEEEE ~ doc apt today... results are in!
Ok, I lost 32 lbs, my cholesterol went from 188, to 150, my A1C was 6.5 and is now 5.2, that is the blood test that tells what your blood sugar was over the past 3 months, so it shows I am no longer diabetic.
the PA (physician's assistant) seemed impressed and asked what I did, so I was able to share my plant based diet experience with her. She was however not interested enough to find out who or how or books or dvd's on it, and said she was glad I found something that worked for me.
This works for hundreds of thousands of people, and Dr. McDougall hasn't found anyone yet that it doesn't work for, unless they just aren't interested in pursuing it.
anyway.. I am happy!

dinner out
We went to dinner last night at the university for a Mystery Dinner fund raiser. What did you eat? you asked...well they had an enormous salad, with some italian dressing, pasta with cheese ( no thanks) and bread sticks ( buttered yes) so I had 3 bowls of salad, then since everyone kept going back up, I had a plate of salad, and 4 breadsticks.. LOL.. My tummy was a bit sluggish after eating the buttered sticks, but sometimes you just can't control things...and once in a while, it just doesn't matter!
today I got right back to my regular eating, I feel great even so!
BS this morning 109... not bad for a bread dinner and somewhat oily salad at 8pm!
