ha ha ha-too funny-heater-u are funny. well-lets see. i went and babysat at my girls house yesterday and the 7 yr old is so sick.poor little baby doll.he is my heart. he was so sick with high fever and when he woke up-all he could muster is a little whistle like a little sick bird.he was not his usual hyper self.i cleaned my girls house. and cleaned and cleaned and washed her carpets and picked up all the toys in the back yard and got her garbage cans out for the garbage men to pick up.did all her laundry and fed the kids and waited on the little sick guy.the funny thing is this and i am going to switch to caps-EVERY YR. I GET SICK AT THIS TIME FOR ONE WHOLE MONTH...SICK WITH FEVER,CHILLS,HEADACHE AND EAR ACHES AND SORE THROAT AND BAD SINUS TROUBLE-AND A HORRID COUGH.WELL-EVERYONE IS SICK AROUND ME-AND I HAD SNIFFLES FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS AND FELT TIRED. AT THIS TIME LAST YR. I HAD TO GO TO THE E.R. CAUSE I WAS SO SICK.this yr. i took zinc and am doing the raw thing and i seem to be gliding thru with ease.today i am off and sore from all i did yesterday.today i am walking-walking and walking somemore. i may go to the bookstore.and look at raw food books.then i am having raw zucchini noodles today and raw tomato sauce for lunch.i think maybe a salad for dinner.back on track.hugs to everyone and have a happy day-taylor

the raw food meet up is close at hand.i am thinking a banana pie.i wonder if and where i could get banana chips with no sugar.i want to use them as a thickener in my smashed banana pie-then add banana's on top too.with a sprig of mint.i was just thinking of a recipe of my own cause this couple wants our own recipes so they can make us all a cookbook we can have.ok-i am excited.

[img10.mytextgraphics.com]

hey girl...wow you are doing so good keep it up!!! congrats on not getting as sick this year...that is awesome.....and hmm i don't know where you can get the banana chips...i know that henry's/wild oats has banana chips that are dehydrated banana's with nothing added so probably a health food store....good luck...that is awesome a cook book would be a great idea...i think i will suggest that at our next pot luck...that everyone bring in a receipe and i will make a collection of them and make a receipe book for everyone...as long as they are their own receipes i don/t want to plagerize.....hmmm....well hun have a great day!! hopefully your soreness will go away

oh my goodness i did see the news brief on the 900 pound woman this morning at the gym it was so sad i got tears in my eyes...this woman was so obese and wanted to fight for her life finally and live for her, her fiance and her 2 daughters..fought and fought till she found a dr who saw her video plea she sent out to hundreds of gastric bypass dr...and did the surgery...she loses 70 pounds in only 2 weeks and then suffers a heart attack...what a sad story for sure....it was so horrible....and she was a beautiful woman you are right...
just wanted to add this
love ya

dearest gals,i got up at 4:30 a.m. to make my apple pie for the potluck.i was so excited.the thing is "hubby has been going to work and sick all week"-so i thought by sat.he would be alright.nope-he is so sick.so i am so upset that i did not get to go.the good part.my hubby ate some of the pie-i took a tiny sliver.oh my!! that is some excellent eatings.now i have a recipe for the holidays.no standard american diet pie could not taste any better than this.it is simply wonderful.NOW THE REALLY INTERESTING NEWS.REMEMBER HOW I THOUGHT MY ANTIDEPRESSANTS WERE NOT WORKING.they didn't.i ahve gone thru 20 days of hell.fighting eating everything in site and depressed and trying so hard to buck up to be ok.well-i finally got online and looked it up.zolofts patent ran out-so other companies can finally make the generic.well-online-i read that the genreic zoloft by the company teva-does not work.alot of people are complaining.when i read that-i thought "yeah-i have been fighting so much depression and eating-everything in site".so i called and told the drug store.-this stuff is crummy and does not work.i had gone there when i first got them-and said somethings up.i told everyone-i may be crazy-but this stuff does not work.it does not.teva is a big drug company.the pill was bigger than the normal.they think maybe all the fillers in it-make it not work as good.anyway-they gave me a re-fill.for 10$.the stuff that works. i paid 43$ last month for the crap that does not work.i feel i should of been given a refund.i was so glad to get the really good stuff.i took one half a pill this morning. i felt fabulous all day.i have not eaten much.i am back in control.when i don't have this stuff-it is like i have no food turn off guage.anyway-had a good day.took the little boys to see the ghost rider.really intense.all men and boys in the whole movie.only 2 grannies.me and another gal.hugs everyone.taylor

dear everyone-everbody in my family has been so sick with that bad cold/flu stuff.whatever it is.its bad.i only got it a tiny bit.i always get so sick. not this yr. gals.whhee!! i am taking care of everyone and not getting it. i got a new cookbook. i sort of like it alot.there is some lightly steamed food in it and it does use braggs which some don't think it good. i love it. i love the tips in it.it says keep nuts soaking in your fridge-ready to use.change the water every day.the BOOK IS CALLED'BACK TO THE HOUSE OF HEALTH" BY SHELLY REDFORD YOUNG AND HER DR. HUBBY.well-they do eat cooked beans but there is alot of really good recipes in there that are raw.so i am loving reading this book.it is very entertaining.walked 3 and one half miles today.ate 2 apples and one plate of salad and some mustard greens(a plate full cooked).i cann't ever resist mustard greens.my granny would always cook them as my snack when i woud get home from school as a teen. i would eat the whole pot and drink the juice.loved it so.can never resist mustard greens.thats it for today.that is what i ate and i am done with food for the nite .have a lovely evening everyone.hugs taylor

Hi there...good job today congrats on the new receipe book!! i bought some new books too...the china study,naked chocolate they are good...interesting...haha....keep up the good work...
glad you love those mustard greens..you are amazing
love sachelle
xoxoxoxox

sachelle-i saw the china study and it sounds very interesting.i am loosing.thank the lord!! i was 175 then gained to 180-agh-freaked me out so much.then i weighed this morning and i weigh 172.by my weigh in on my weight loss group on thrusday-i should be to 170.i have not seen 170 in many a yr.sachelle-have u thought any of when we get down to the weight we want-on how to maintain?maybe then we won't have to worry so-cause we will be raw. i sure love the un cook-books.they are so interesting.the one i just got is more geared like gabriel cousens in the sense of eat more veggies.that is right for me but i love the fruit.nothing wrong with either.well-wish everyone a wonderful day.hugs taylor

[img10.mytextgraphics.com]

HI there....well hmm i am not sure i haven't read it yet but someone told me it is a must read so i got it haha...congrats on the awesome weight loss...you are doing so amazing i wish i was doing that good...no matter what i don't seem to be losing like you have been...i don't eat a lot ....i exercise a lot you would think the pounds would be melting off...but hmm they are not...i don't know about when i get tot he weight i want...i haven't been the weight i want since kindergarten the first semester....SERIOUSLY....so i don't know...i have struggle with weight and eating disorders my whole life...no matter what i never had to think about when i got to my natural weight because no matter how much is starved or threw up or over exercised i would stay the same weight and now with raw it seems to be coming off SOME but not like most people...and believe me i didmn't gain it slowly like they say...i was 2 years oldand it came over night...by kindergarten i was way over the limit and for no reason...i have been to every specialist and dr in the united states LITERALLY and they always tell me something new or say take this drug or that and it will work...well 20 years later here i am and no progress...even if raw doesn't take the weight off like it claims at least i am eating healthy and feel good about what i am doing for my body and not throwing up or starving or anything...so i have no idea...sorry to give you that long speech after a simple question...but that is my thought.....but hmm you are so close to your goal weight what are you going to do??? you are only 20 pounds away from where you want to be!! keep up the super work..youa re amazing....
