Fueling The Fast...


On December 14, 2009, I decided it was time to remove flesh from my diet once in for all.  I made this choose for several reasons, one of which is that it is just unhealthy and humans were never intended to be carnivores, We rely on meat as a main course and vegetables as a side dish or an  after thought. This insanity is the reason why many of us (including myself) are overweight and under nourished today. I know that If I want to loose the waste  that I say I do I have  to be first committed to the process and reverse the lifestyle that brought me here in the first place. 


It was a bit of a challenge at first but I decided  going fleshless was not enough after only two days I was then prompted by my internal voice to release the starches and refined sugars and replace them with herbal compounds, natural grains such as quinoa, amaranth and spelt in addition to fresh  fruits and vegetables. Immediately I noticed that I was lighter and had more energy than I have had in years.  Later, that week I decided that that still wasn't enough for me, so I dropped out the natural grains and relied on vegetables and herbs alone. When I speak about this herbal compound I am speaking  on a specially formulated blend of Irish moss, kelp and burdock called power blend which feeds and cleanses your body on a intracellular level.




On December 19, 2009, I forgot to eat and took only herbs.  On this day I had a bowel movement and I pasted some week old popcorn. This was all I needed to see. It dawned on me that as long as I continued to intake food, I would never truly be able to cleanse out all the backed up waste from my colon. So I stopped and now I am only taking my herbal compound, juice and water. Today marks Day 11 since I began my fast. I feel fantastic. I have more energy than I have had in years. Oh, and my favorite part is that I loose weight everyday. As of today my total weight loss since starting this blog is 30 pounds.



Things You Need To Know
   
1. There are many different types of fast. If you fast you are not starving yourself.  When doctor's perform gastric bi- past and lap band surgeries they are shrinking the stomach and limiting the types of food you can ingest. Fasting can save you 12,000 worth of surgery.


2. Herbs = Food. Herbs are a concentrated source of vital minerals directly from the earth and or sea. They alone contain more nutrients than a piece of fruit or a any  vegetable alone.


3. Fasting and liquid diets are commonly used to in hospitals to lower blood pressure, control diabetes and is a part of a treatment program used to heal anything you may come into a hospital for. 


I would like to invite you all on this fasting journey with me.  I will be posting my experiences periodically,  thoughts, pictures and live juice recipes. 


See You Next Time Darlings :)

A Woman Should Have” by Pamela Redmond Satran

A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE …
enough money within her control to move out
and rent a place of her own,
even if she never wants to or needs to…
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ….
something perfect to wear if the employer,
or date of her dreams wants to see her in an hour…
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ..
a youth she’s content to leave behind….
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE …
a past juicy enough that she’s looking forward to
retelling it in her old age….
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE …..
a set of screwdrivers, a cordless drill, and a black lace bra…
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ….
one friend who always makes her laugh… and one who lets her cry…
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ….
a good piece of furniture not previously owned by anyone else in her family…
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE …
eight matching plates, wine glasses with stems,
and a recipe for a meal,
that will make her guests feel honored…
A WOMAN SHOULD HAVE ..
a feeling of control over her destiny…
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
how to fall in love without losing herself..
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
how to quit a job,
break up with a lover,
and confront a friend without;
ruining the friendship…
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
when to try harder… andWHEN TO WALK AWAY…
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
that she can’t change the length of her calves,
the width of her hips, or the nature of her parents..
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
that her childhood may not have been perfect…but it’s over…
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
what she would and wouldn’t do for love or more….
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
how to live alone… even if she doesn’t like it….
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
whom she can trust,
whom she can’t,
and why she shouldn’t take it personally…
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
where to go…
be it to her best friend’s kitchen table..
or a charming Inn in the woods…
when her soul needs soothing…
EVERY WOMAN SHOULD KNOW…
What she can and can’t accomplish in a day…
a month…and a year…
