<<If you contact Doc off list he can put you in touch with Total Nutrition

already made up.>>

 

Thanks for the info will do that.

 

<<Secondly, try slicing a lemon or lime and adding it to your drinking

water... >>

 

I've been doing this automatically since we lived in Europe when I was a

kid, can't drink any other way now. AND I just found some nicely priced

ORGANIC lemons in my area!! So guess who's going to making lemon egg also!

 

<<Third, the " caffeine " headaches go away .. try a cup of coffee in the

morning instead of soda.. and the urge does go away...usually takes a few

days to a week.. ( I know.. I was a " dew " freak).. >>

 

I have quit in the past but I have to admit the memory of laying on the

couch with my hands over my head in too much pain to even cry is hard to

pass over. As for coffee I just thought of that this morning (I usually

drink herbal tea if I drink anything not carbonated.) I used to drink it

all the time with my breakfast.

 

<<Try fruit juices, apple or cranberry, grape, etc... (apple was my

favorite) >>

 

Will do have some in the freezer, cranberry is my personal favorite, then

the peach and white grape mix from Welch's.

 

<<Start by eating more fruits, veggies (preferably raw). Start drinking

fruit juices, Then you want to get rid of the soda... I went into a total

cleanse at that point... It was easier than you think... the first few days

before the cleanse without soda was tough... but I drank a lot of lemon

water and all kinds of fruit juices... if it sounded interesting or good, I

tried it.. lol.. but apple is still my favorite..>>

 

I've already started eating more veggies, raw and in general. I even found

a good vegetarian cookbook with recipes I think even the kids will like. (As

long as they don't know it's vegetarian.)

 

 

<<It's a lot easier than quitting smoking...>>

 

I had to quit smoking cold turkey for health reasons. One day I woke up and

my throat was so sore I couldn't swallow with out severe pain. When I tried

to talk it felt like someone pulling razors in my throat, and it stayed that

way for a week. When it finally cleared up I hadn't realized it was from

the smoking until I tried it again after I had healed some and was in pain

from that also. Nothing like pain to cure you. My mom (an RN) said it

sounded like I'd developed an allergy to it. I can't even be around smoke

for anytime anymore without getting very sick and headachy.

Thanks for all the wonderful support you give to this group. I've always

enjoyed your posts and responses and have learned a lot from you.

 

<<PS... The BLAHHS pass.>>

 

I sure hope so cause I just tasted prune juice for the first time ever this

morning and it's rough getting it down and keeping it there. I keep

repeating " IT'S MY BODY...I WILL DO THIS!! " LOL Oh well, at least it's not

ALL prune juice, but I think I'll stick to apple juice for the cleanse,

don't know that I can take carrot juice after this. (Go ahead and laugh

Goodness knows that I am!)

 

Peace,
