- I Had to Break the Master Cleanse3 y
- I really feel sick!
3-22-10
I woke up really sick today! This day was really hard on me. I was so weak; I couldn’t get out of bed for very long. I really wanted to go at least 10 days, but it’s like my body just shut down.
I made my lemonade mix and I couldn’t drink it. It was so weird. My throat just closed up. I couldn’t even drink my water. I used to be able to guzzle a ½ gallon of water at a time. But now, every time I drink something, my throat would close up. I could only drink little sips at a time. I started getting really worried that I would dehydrate when I noticed I probably only drank 2 cups ... read more

I went to church today in a dress suit that I couldn’t put over my hips when I first got it years ago. It still had the tags on it. It was fun being able to wear it without it even being tight on me. But, I ended up leaving church early, I felt really weak. I continued the day pretty much in bed today.

- Not a very good day
3-19-10
I don’t know why my blood sugar is so high this morning. I wonder if it’s because I did some errands this morning and didn’t take my vitals until later? Anyways, My blood pressure is down to normal! I didn’t lose very much weight. I felt very tired today. And nauseated at times. I felt like I needed more water, but couldn’t handle drinking more.

3-17-10
I’m so excited! I haven’t had any eye problems today! It must be the luck of the Irish! It’s been a long time since I haven’t dealt with this on a daily basis. I really didn’t expect the detox to work this fast on my allergies. I haven’t had any itching, nor have I taken anything for my allergies today!
And I feel so good! Lot’s of energy! I’ve gotten a lot done today. I even cooked my family a special St. Patrick’s Day Dinner. I made Leprechaun Smoothies, Cheesy Cream of Broccoli Soup, Cabbage, potatoes, Meat & Onions andI made Irish Soda bread with cranberries. No, I didn’t e ... read more

- More great results form Master Cleanse
3-16-10
Progress - No Eye swelling today! My eye allergies felt better. My eyes started itching this morning and I took some Homeopathic Adrenal Support as usual. This time it worked! No more itching until this afternoon. Then another Homeopathic Adrenal support and again relief. I didn’t need anything else for the rest of the day.
Usually, I use Visine A.C. drops and cold washcloth compressions to bring the swelling down. And I’m not able to drive or see very well on the computer.
Also, it amazes me that I haven’t been hungry this whole time. I think because I’m always filling my s ... read more
- Shoulder Inflammation Gone!3 y
- Great results with Master Cleanse
3-15-10
This morning I woke up and my shoulder pain is gone! And I have full range of motion. Last year when this happened, it took about a month with hot pool therapy treatments. I do credit the detox for this fast recovery. But, my eye allergies are still in full bloom. I’ve had this problem for over 3 years so I’m sure it will take some time to clear up.
This is what motivates me to do this detox. I am so sick of the eye allergies. It got so bad I can’t see to drive so; I bought some 24 hour non-drowsy allergy medicine. It didn’t make me drowsy…..until about 7 hours later and then I ... read more

3-14-10
My progress has been slowing down so, it’s time to re-evaluate what I’m doing. I was thinking about re-adjusting my diet, but I have been so miserable with eye allergies and shoulder inflammation from sleeping on it wrong, that I have decided I need to detox. Mainly, because it scares me that my inflammation in my body is out of control and that it can lead to another stroke.
My raw foods are slowly healing my body but I decided I needed to have a faster relief. I have had the eye allergies for over 3 years and the shoulder inflammation is a sign to me that my body is not contr ... read more

Today, I was busy getting ready to drive 2 hours to my grandson’s birthday. I had no problem avoiding the cake and ice cream. It didn’t look good to me at all. But, I did get into some chips again. It was the Terra chips with taro, ruby taro, sweet potato, yuca, batata, and parsnips with sea salt but I ate too much of them.

- Let's Talk Poop3 y
- Don't Run Away!
3-11-10
I know it’s not a pleasant subject. But, when you’re talking about weight, poop is a big factor. People carry a lot of poop around in their colon. One time I weighed myself after I I eliminated and I lost 6 lbs! So, I do try to weigh myself after my bowel movement in the morning. Now, for some people who don’t poop but once a week, this would be a disadvantage. But for me, especially when eating lots of raw food, poop happens 2 times a day and if I get a bonus round, 3 times a day! I’ve noticed I can weight myself pre-poop and then post-poop and I have lost several pounds. So, thi ... read more
- Coconut Oil Hasn't Slowed Down Weight Loss3 y
- Readjusted morewith success.
3-10-10
Another thing I’m not doing in following the Hcg protocal is in using oil on my skin. I put coconut oil on my face, neck, hands, arms, elbows and feet almost every day since I started this Hcg Raw Vegan Protocal. So far, it hasn’t slowed down my weight loss.
Although, I ate until I was full yesterday I only ate 686 calories. And I only lost .8 lbs. My body either needs more calories or my body is adjusting and losing slower. So, today I ate 1022 calories and we’ll see what happens tomorrow. I’m really not very hungry though and it takes me hours to finish off the soup. At night ... read more

All with 958 calories and 74 grams fat!
Wow! And I’m full. Not like the small amount of Hcg soup that left me still wanting more on the regular Hcg protocal. I thought I had to be hungry on the Hcg diet in order to lose weight. But, when I drink the raw vegan soup it takes me all afternoon and I get so full, I have to remind myself to finish it off.
I can’t wait to see how this plays out. How high can I go with the raw vegan calories and still lose weight?

3-07-10
I got some more Hcg, so I’m restarting the Hcg Raw Vegan Diet Today. This time I will be experimenting and adjusting this diet to my specific Diabetic needs. I’m not going to be eating any fruit. Just vegetables, mostly greens. Because I noticed my blood sugar does alot better when I eat lots of greens. I’m going to try to eat a regular Raw Vegan diet, minus fruits. That means I’ll be eating nuts and avacados. So, instead of just 500 calories, I’ll be counting my calories but not limiting them. If I don’t progress, I’ll adjust in these areas.

Grains turn into sugar
I ran out of HCG, so I’ve just tried to stick with Raw Vegan until I have the money for more Hcg. I started noticing I do not want the sweet form of green smoothies. I’m still craving the greens, but not the sweetness. So, I’ve tried several different recipes. I found one I really like and I’ll post it later. It’s more like soup.
I started noticing I’m not craving sweets anymore. Not even when people eat them in front of me. I used to have to have something sweet before bed. I think it was because it made me sleepy and helped me sleep more deeply. But, now I sleep very deep and sound all ... read more
- Is it Selfish for me to take care of myself?3 y
- I blew it!
I haven’t written anything for a while. I can summarize the week in one word STRESSFUL. It all started when the one daughter, who’s watching her sister’s kids until a nanny is found, calls in a panic. She’s been having anxiety attacks and ran out of her medication. (Because she took too much!) So, she took off in the truck we loaned her and was making a fast trip back to fill her prescription early (which I told her they wouldn’t do) and she got lost! She calls me up crying because she doesn’t know where she is. I told her to call her sister and she could direct her better than I could to ... read more
- Even Great Healthy Foods Can Be Bad For You3 y
- Don't Overeat!
I gained weight from the raw vegan potluck. My vitals aren’t very good today either. But, what did I expect. One thing I learned is that even great healthy meals can be bad for you, if you over eat which puts stress on your body. I didn’t eat until late today because I didn’t want to eat until my blood sugar was down.

I’m so excited; I got to go to a Raw Vegan Potluck tonight. I found the group on meetup.com. My husband and I drove two hours to get there, but it was so worth it! It was a valentine party with 2 ladies entertaining us with their multi-talented musical abilities. I brought Kale Chips, Rawioli’s with a marinara sauce, Raw Vegan crumb donuts and brownie bites. There was so much food! I was in heaven! And hungry! There were all kinds of salads, lasagna, wraps, sushi, Pad Thai with kelp noodles, Coconut noodle soup, flax crackers and guacamole, veggies and raw BBQ sauce, and huge nut balls. An ... read more

I found out my daughter miscarried her baby last night. And my other daughter lost her babysitter and called for help so she could still go to work. So, I was helping another daughter get her truck fixed and packed up with her two kids, so she could drive the two hours and help her sister with baby sitting. So, I’ve been on the run since early this morning. When I got hungry about 1:00 pm, I realized I hadn’t taken my vitals or brought anything with me to eat. With fast food restaurants and their smells at every corner, I was tempted. But, I went to the grocery store instead, determined ... read more

My weight was the same for the last 2 days and then today it was up .8 of a pound. But, you know what I’m so excited about my blood pressure and blood sugar that it doesn’t bother me!

- Is Inflammation The Cause of All Diseases?3 y
- Info to think about
I’ve been reading a lot of articles today stating all disease is caused by chronic low grade inflammation. The articles listed every disease & disorder you could think of including diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure and stroke. As we go through life our body fights one infection after another causing inflammation. And when we eat the wrong types of food it causes low grade inflammation. This chronic low grade inflammation can also be inherited or have genetic factors. The body responds by increasing inflammatory cytokines which leads to increased levels of insulin resistance. ... read more

Can I say this out loud? I’m now under 200 lbs! I haven’t seen under 200 in 20 years! It’s going to be great when I go to the doctors and the nurse weighs me. She’ll be sliding that big weight marker down to the 200 mark and I’ll say, “No, you’ll have to slide it to the lower notch now!”
I have 18 more days of weight loss before I go back to the doctors. I really want to show him I made a great choice of canceling my meds. Well, OK, Maybe I’m asking too much. I hope he’ll just not be mad and start lecturing me and maybe even cancel me as a patient because I want to still monitor myself by ... read more

I found out through some research that when you have a stroke in the right brain hemisphere, you have a tendency to suffer from depression brought on by the physical damage to this area of the brain. Let alone the emotional depression that one suffers from the disabling effects of a stroke.

I did have a tough moment today. My husband cooked some Mexican Soup. It filled up the whole house. It was very temping! I just stayed in my room and didn’t get to eat until 4:oo pm when the smell died down. This was my first weekend with everyone home.

It must be all the weight I gained taking my meds. I think it must of been a lot of water weight, but I drink a gallon of water a day. So, go figure! My blood sugar is coming down a lot faster than I expected. My blood pressure is still high. Hopefully, when I lose more weight, it will come down.

Time for a big change! A stroke will kinda do that to ya. I’m lucky it was a mild stroke. I still have numbness in my upper left lip, three left fingers and weakness in my left leg. The worst part is my mind isn’t sharp anymore. I’m fine talking, but if someone asked me a question, the retrieval is slow or not at all. Can’t seem to connect. I am determined to change my life for the better and lower my risk factors by losing weight.
