Re: Fasting versus eating for weight loss, "descent before touchdown"
Hi Mouseclick,
You should go purchse a Vita-Mix asap. If you don't like it, return it. I can't think of a better diet or health tool to have in the kitchen. My smoothies are about 3/4 vegtables and the remaining only fruit. However, it taste like a fruit smoothie nonetheless. Check out

for more information about green smoothis and a video. I also really like the book 12 Steps to Raw Foods by Boutenko.
"I have got to the state where I can eat kale, Brussels sprouts or broccoli raw, though I prefer them steamed."
Wow. You can eat plain raw kale? You're pretty tough!
"I also like raw peas and raw broad beans. I tried eating a raw potato, but it was not very enjoyable."
No, no raw potato :) I've tried that myself.. ugh
"Thanks for the beer tip!"
I know it's not the best tasting beer on this side of town but hey... it's low cal :)
Cheers, M
