DD here – in other words it is Debbie today!. DB has a hand injury and I will be filling in for a few days until his hand has more mobility – any prayers are appreciated – especially for strength, and healing virtue! Now, back to business. Yes, there is change in the air – and the only way to make a difference in your health is to make a commitment to CHANGE! One thing people always say to us is that it is so hard – but it is not, it is just different than the norm you have grown accustom to. The whole idea is making a new norm for yourself. Often people ask “what do you guys eat”. I think they think we do some unusual things that are unheard of. We both start the morning with a half of apple – I choose a bit of almond butter on mine to help me with some protein and also a bit of fat. I know that I need good oil – my body just lets me know – esp. during times close to my period starting – and yes, at 54 I still have a period – you know that the longer you have it – this is a good sign for cleansing health. Anyway, DB has carrots and sometime cucumbers with his apple and then a nut salad and other protein – like Applegate turkey to keep him thru the morning. We have a power salad for lunch – from mixed greens and spinach to tomatoes and cucs with cauliflower and broccoli – and cabbage – usually red, with whatever fresh herb we have around the house. I choose to put my flax seed oil on my salad and he uses a Braggs dressing. Dinner when there is just the two of us consists of a protein and veggies – brown rice or a whole wheat pasta is a treat. Bread isn’t even normally in our home! Maybe a brown rice tortilla, it is what you get used to – and what foods you know feed your body…. OK – more tomorrow. Have a wonderful night… DD
