Day 1 Juice Fast
I'm starting today! I'm having 2 root canal teeth pulled today that have ached for 4 years since they were done. I have had lots of health problems ever since (stroke, heart attack). I can feel the aching radiating up to the same spot on my head that I had the stroke.... connection? I don't know, but I'm done with them! I figured I might as well start today since I won't be able to chew for a while! Bring on the detox!
Today I started with 40 oz lemon water, and 20 oz peppermint and detox tea. I had 20 oz water with 2 Tbs silica and I juiced cucumber, celery, spinach, kale, cilantro and apple. I was a little afraid of the juice tasting too green and having a hard time swallowing it, but I was pleasantly surprised with a very refreshing drink!

Not bad considering last night I ate a lot of Christmas left over and candy and my blood sugar spiked up over 600! (My blood sugar meter only read up to 600, so who knows how high it really was!) Took some insulin
(hopefully my last) and started juicing today!

Is Juicing the solution?
I haven’t posted in a while. This is want happened…without any change
in diet my numbers started moving up! Very confusing to me! I started searching
the internet! Someone suggested I try Death to Diabetes. His story is
fantastic, so I started his program, by adding steamed veggies like he suggests,
I just couldn’t bring myself to the meat part or fruits! And I was adding more
and more greens…still numbers kept rising!
Then came thanksgiving, I ate a little taste of everything! Blood Sugar jumped to 575! Luckily, I brought my insulin just in case, but I never dreamed it would go that high! Then, right back to raw and steamed. But, my numbers just kept rising! I got depressed with nothing working anymore, so when people started bringing over Christmas food gifts, I ate! Then Christmas parties I ate! But, I kept eating well at home…still searching the internet.
Then I found a statement by Dr. Cousens (Simply Raw-Reversing Diabetes in 30 days) He said if your numbers aren’t going down you need to detox! He puts his patients on juice fasts. He also uses Zeolite to help pull the toxins out. I order some online and also ran across Silica which is good for detoxing and helping our skin, hair and nails! I used to fast in my 20’s and 30’s. I did a 29 day water fast when I was 23. Maybe, if I would have kept that up I wouldn’t be in the situation I am now! I found a new group on facebook; Juicing Only, January 2012, and joined. It’s a great support group for juicing one full month in January. Isn’t it amazing how the Lord puts what you need in front of you when you need it!

Update Time!
I am so excited, and I can't hide it!!! I am on a high today!!! I went to a Health Fair and my cholesterol was 157 and blood sugar 97. I had to go to another booth and consult with an MD before they would give me an A1c test. He looked at my cholesterol and blood sugar numbers and said, "Your numbers are normal, why do you want an A1c? I told him, "Well, I had a heart attack in February and had two stents put in my heart artery and I had a stroke the year before. My A1c was 11.8 with the stroke and 11.6 with the heart attack. I did everything my doctor told me to, but I couldn't get my blood sugar under control with the insulin and I couldn't get out of bed, so 2 months ago I stopped taking my meds and I started eating raw food!" He looked at me and said, "Well, you haven't had 3 full months of change, but I'm real interested to see what your A1c is!" When my turn came up, he came over and stood there waiting for my test to be done.... The tech said 8.2... I said, "Wow, I didn't think it would be that good, yet! The doctor shook his head and said, "I didn't think it would be under 9!" He gave me his business card and said, "I'm really interested in seeing how this works for you."
I want to send the cholesterol test to my Cardiologist. He wanted me on a statin drug to lower my cholesterol, but I had an allergic reaction to it in the hospital. So, he gave me a script for another type, but I researched it and I didn't like the common side effects. When I started the Raw Vegan Diet, I researched nuts and found out they bring your cholesterol down and clean your arteries out without side effects! Well...It worked!!!

Once A Month Regular Food Day!
Yesterday, was my 36th anniversary! So, I was looking forward to having my once a month regular food day. Since we had a gift card for Olive Garden and they were having endless pasta night, we decided to go there. I was looking so forward to it, I had already been on their website and decided exactly what I was going to eat a week ahead of time.
The soup and salad were great as usual. Andy decided he didn't want to eat bread, but I did. Then, the appetizer came; smoked mozzarella with bread slices. I took one bite and got a mouthful of mold!!! I had to drink lots of water and eat more bread to get the taste out of my mouth!!! Yuck!!!
The the main course, roasted mushroom in a Parmesan sauce with sun-dried tomatoes. It wasn't bad, but not great either. The sun-dried tomatoes should have been soaked. Instead they were hard as a rock sprinkled on top. I was also surprised, I could only eat 1/4 of it. With other endless pasta nights, I've been able to eat two plates of pasta. Now, I think my stomach just isn't used to that any more!
I wasn't going to have any dessert, but they had pumpkin cheesecake! My weakness! It was fantastic!!! With a crunchy gingerbread cookie sprinkled on top.
Then we went to a movie; Abduction with Taylor Launter. Andy thought it was going to be a chick flick because of the Twilight star. But, it had a lot of action in it. He really liked it.
We had a small popcorn during the movie, which we agreed just didn't taste that great.
On our way home we both agreed that, we liked our raw vegan spaghetti dishes way better than the cooked, bland Olive Garden meals. Not only did they not taste that great, they left our mouths dry and thirsty. I was so thirsty by the time we got home, I drink 3 tall glasses of water!!! I also noticed mucus gathering in my throat and I had a sore on my tongue .
When I got home, I took my blood pressure, it was still normal; 129/71. But, my blood sugar was 293!!! I could of guessed that would have happened!
In the morning, I had another attack of the right eye allergy; Swollen, itchy! Still salty, dry, thirsty mouth! I snored again last night! I haven't snored since starting raw vegan. Gain 2 lbs!
Conclusion: Regular food just isn't as good anymore. When you get used to super fresh live food, dead food tastes bland! And it caused inflammation, mucus and snoring! So, I got to ask myself, Was it worth it! NOOO!
I'm really not craving sweets anymore, so I shouldn't have caved into the pumpkin cheesecake. It wasn't worth the spike in my blood sugar. I need to work on a raw vegan pumpkin cheesecake for thanksgiving, because my daughter is bringing her famous pumpkin cheesecake with caramel pecan topping. We'll have to see how next month's regular food day works out! It's going to be Thanksgiving!

Indoor Winter Garden
I just transplanted my outdoor herbs; rosemary, thyme, oregano, basil, sage, and celery into their new indoor home.
I used a portable clothes rack on wheels and hung shoe holders on the rack with shower curtain hooks. I put a long planter on the bottom rack to catch drainage from watering. This works really well when it's a sunny day, I can wheel it outside. And it's easy access to my herbs when I'm cooking; just walk a few steps, snip, snip, snip and wonderful flavors in every dish!!!
Now, if I can find a way to get my tomatoes and zucchini in here before the frost gets them!
Two Week Update:
Start Raw Vegan Vitals:
09-21-11 Blood Pressure 149/99, Pulse 82, Blood Sugar 271, Weight 224
10-05-11 Blood Pressure 119/72, Pulse 68, Blood Sugar 176, Weight 217
Blood Pressure normalized in two days!
Blood Sugar still gradually coming down, not normal yet. But, really good for not taking insulin in 19 days!
Weight Loss 7 lbs in 14 days! Not hungry and eating well! Total of 15 lbs lost in one month. 9 more lbs to go to be back where I was before I started taking insulin.
Tips:
1. I make a big batch of Green Soup Smoothie in the morning and divide it up for each meal throughout the day.
2. I drink a Green Soup Smoothie before I eat each meal to fill up.
3. I prepare two days of meals at a time, so I get a break every other day. That seems to help me stay on track, because it's easier to eat the raw vegan food waiting for me in the refrigerator, than to make something else.
4. Have good snacks on hand and when out on errands to stay away from junk and fast food. (usually nuts and veggie seed crackers)

High Blood Pressure Cured!!!
I think I can safely say, “My High Blood Pressure is Cured!!!” Every time I take my blood pressure, I am surprised at how “normal it is!!! “118/73” Without my medication!!!! Go Raw Vegan!!!! Now for my diabetes!!! It’s in the very low 200’s now. About the same as when I was on insulin!
I don’t know if it’s just my taste buds adjusting, but I’m really starting to like the unsweetened “soup smoothies”. The first two days, I just drank the smoothies and ate some raw nuts. Then I started making raw vegan food. Walnut Crunch Thai Wraps, Mock Tuna wraps with a dill sauce, Pumpkin Seed Cilantro Pesto over zucchini spaghetti, Mock Tuna Sushi. Yum, Yum!!!
I've gone back and forth eating SAD (Standard American Diet)over the past 5 years. If I would have only stayed with it, I wouldn't have been in the dire shape I'm in now! I need to stay on this forever!!! I can’t understand myself sometimes!!! The food tastes great!!! I lose weight, my blood pressure goes to normal, and my blood sugar goes to normal! So, why do I go back to eating the SAD food? It’s killing me!!! Literally!!! So, why do I go back to SAD?
Yeah, I know it’s easier to eat SAD! Because, there’s nowhere nearby to buy prepared raw vegan food. SAD food is more socially acceptable. I try to please everyone else on what they want to eat because they constantly turn their noses up to raw vegan food, without even trying it! “Oh, Raw Vegan! Don’t we have any real food to eat?” They have literally gotten mad at me for having some raw vegan choices with the regular Thanksgiving meal. I’m not trying to force anyone to eat the same way as me. I provide the food they want for themselves, so why the hostility? Especially, since this is a life threatening choice I’m dealing with here!!!
I’ve been providing them with their needs all their life; it’s time to take care of myself! Sometimes, I feel guilty, but I need to keep remembering, if I don’t take care of myself, I won’t be around to take care of anyone! I want to live to see my grandchildren grow up. I want to be alive to see my great grandchildren.
But, not only live, but, living a quality life!
I've decided I will allow myself 1 day a month to eat socially. But, I have to go directly back to raw the next day. I still have to be careful on what I eat; low glycemic, so I don't have to take insulin for the diabetes. Hopefully, this will satisfy my family, especially through the coming holidays.

SICK AND TIRED OF BEING SICK AND TIRED!!!
I am so sick and tired of being sick and Tired!!!!
I have done everything the doctors have told me to do for 7 months now!!!
I feel like my body is slowly closing down. Too many medications!!! No progress!!!
Just sicker and sicker!!! Too many drug side effects and no positive Results!!!
Why should I be taking a blood pressure medication that hasn’t lowered my blood pressure
in 7 months? And causes so many side effects?
Why should I take insulin that causes me to gain so much weight?
Doesn’t more weight cause more insulin problems?
I feel like I’m a vicious cycle of no return!!!
Most days I can’t function! I’m always in bed!
And when I do get up and do something, I feel like I’m pushing myself to my limits!
I don’t want to just live longer. I want quality of live, not just life.
Being alive in bed and not being able to do anything is not living!
Ok, the radical, rebellious person inside me is ready to come out and fight!!!
I stopped taking all my meds!!!
I went to Atkins Diet with no carbs, because I know it will help me lose weight fast and keep my numbers down. But, I also know that it only helps me for about 1 week and then I need to go to Raw Vegan. For life, this time! I wish I could afford Dr. Cousens program for Diabetes Cure. But, $12,000 isn’t in my hands right now! So, I’m going to be studying what others on Raw Vegan have done to help their Diabetes.
On 9-8-11 I started the Aktin’s Diet with no meds!!! My blood sugar was 190 and my blood pressure was 149/97 (Average numbers, even with all my meds!) My weight had climbed up to 232 lbs.
During the week of the Aktin’s Diet, I lost 8 lbs. And I felt great! Lots on energy and getting things done! But, then after the week, my blood sugar and blood pressure stated going up every day, until one day, my blood sugar was 535 and my blood pressure was 159/117. STROKE LEVEL!!!! Ok, I had to do something fast!!! I broke down and took 1 insulin shot! I didn’t want to go back on my non-working blood pressure meds so; I went online to see a natural way to bring down my blood pressure. I found Epson Salt Baths! An hour later and my blood pressure was 130/76. WOW! That really works!
The next day I got Vertigo (dizziness) really bad!!! I was awakened at 4:45 am to the room spinning!!!
I could only lie on my back in bed. If I turned my head slightly to get my water cup off my night stand, the whole room would spin!!! So, I had to lay still!!! For 8 days!!! Now, I can get up, but if I look down or up, the room spins again. What is the cause of this??? I believe it is from the withdrawal of my blood pressure med, because when I first started on that med, I got vertigo for a whole month!!! And I have never had vertigo before in my life! Well, I continued this way, in bed with my dear husband bringing me Atkin’s meals and taking Epson Salt baths.
My blood sugar was still in the high 200’s to mid 300’s. So on 9-21-11, as soon as I was able to get up, I made me a green smoothie. But, not the sweet banana kind like I used to have. I had to stay away from sweet carbs to bring down my blood sugar. It was more like a soup smoothie. Not, bad, but not real good either! But, Boy it was like my cells opened up for nourishment and started dancing around in joy! “She’s feeding us real food!!! Something we can work with!!!” And I guess it helped them go to work because my numbers have been steadily going down!!!

Raw Vegan Crumb Donut - Tastes like your cheating!
Today, I made raw vegan crumb donuts. Yummm!!! Yummm!!! I can't remember where I got the recipe, but it's been my favorite raw vegan dessert for years. It's sweetened with dates and it has raw butternut squash in it, but you don't even taste it. All you taste is the sweet almond, coconut, nutmeg taste, just like a crumb donut, but moist inside instead of bread like. Check it out in the recipe section for the full recipe and photo.
I got really busy this week and forgot to take my thyroid activator. Boy, does my body know how to get my attention! 9 lbs of weight gain in 3 days! Took the activator and in 2 days lost the 9 lbs! Ok, I get it! For me, I need it to lose the weight. I'm real happy that my blood pressure is in the normal range again. And my blood sugar has dropped 200 points! Still not in the normal range, but at least I'm out of the stroke range!

Back on Track!!!
I haven't posted in a long time. Well, I've been struggling for a while. But, recently I had a major breakthrough. Even though my tests have always come back normal for my thyroid. I have felt there was a problem there. So, I recently started using thyroid activator by Nature's Sunshine. My weight started coming down again and I had a lot more energy. Then I ran out of it for several weeks and sure enough I started gaining weight again. I've been so tired and started getting headaches every morning.
Well, I got some more and my weight has started going down again. And I started eating raw vegan recently and now my headaches are gone. I tried eating "normal" again and my headaches came back. So, I am back to eating raw vegan again and I'll be posting more recipes with pictures. So look in the recipe section.
Today, I posted a yummy Pumpkin Seed Pesto Veggie Fettucini. It has dehydrated mushrooms and tomatoes that taste like sauted sun-dried tomatoes and mushrooms. Yum, Yum!!!

OK, I don't know if I'm a glutton for punishment or what, but I'm starting the Master Cleanse again today. My weight has just beening climbing out off control again. Last time, I eased off the Master Cleanse, then eased into regular food. But, I still gained my weight back at an alarming rate, mostly 3 lbs a day. I should of caught it then and did something, but my life went into stress mode and I had to deal with family problems for the last 4 months. I'm sure the stress contributed to the weight gain. But, needless to say, I'm almost back to where I started in January.

I Had to Break the Master Cleanse
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 of liquid by 3 pm. So, I decided I better try something else. I had 2 bowls of broth and some wasa crackers the rest of the day.
I wonder if anyone else has had this problem. Do you suppose it has something to do with the Epsom salts instead of Sea Salt?
Well, I guess I better listen to my body and close down this cleanse.

Show OFF Day
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 with it being a little loose on me. But, I ended up leaving church early, I felt really weak. I continued the day pretty much in bed today.
