There is nothing wrong with change, if it is in the right direction. ~ Winston Churchill

The world of high fat eating is only now becoming more and more acceptable after years and years of propaganda against anything with even just a trace of healthy fat.

It’s been almost 5 years since we ran the now famous (well, it’s famous in my own mind!) High Fat Experiment at HTA, and only recently do I see a ton of FAMOUS (low-carber) people willing to jump on this bandwagon.

The low carb community always knew the value of having MORE healthy fats in the diet, […]

Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success. ~ Henry Ford

Humans are social creatures by nature. Most of the time, we surround ourselves with people who share our belief systems and values. Support groups are a way to surround you with individuals who have goals that are similar to yours. By sharing a purpose with a group of people, you stay motivated and inspired to continue moving toward success.

Part of the support system’s value is that it offers accountability, and sometimes that is all we need to be successful. When I started my hCG story, […]

Recipe: Creamy Chicken with Cabbage and Apples

In case you haven’t noticed, this week’s recipes are about cabbage and apples. I had a plethora of both that I needed to use up.

The original of this recipe was to be made with bacon instead of chicken. I opted to try it with chicken, modifying some of the ingredients.

In retrospect, I think it would be better with the bacon, although with the chicken it was most tasty!

As I was enjoying it for lunch, something came to me … it was a memory of a scene from The Brady Bunch […]

Recipe: Chicken Mustard Coleslaw With Apple

Like I mentioned last week, I am on a pound a day of raw kick.  I know this is a stupid time of year for it, because in most places, it’s cold.

There is never any rhyme or reason for what I do, when I do it. HA!

I have been scouring my archives, and the internet to find recipes that enable me to get this in with no muss, no fuss.

This recipe calls for 2 cups of cabbage, the weight on that is about 5 oz, then for the apple, which mine was about 5 oz – so for just one […]

Recipe: Apple Blue Cheese Salad

Yeah. I am on a raw kick again. I don’t know why I fight it.

I just feel better every time I eat the bulk of my day in raw fruits and veggies. My goal right now it to eat at least a pound a day of raw food. I am not going nuts about it, but I am trying to keep it at a 60% veggie to 40% fruit ratio.

So lately, because my life seems to be all about overwhelm these days, I have started looking for recipes that have a pound of raw in the ingredients. If they don’t, […]

Recipe: Curry Chicken Soup

Soup.

On P2, there is no other better meal.

It’s filling.  It’s easy.  It’s delish.

And curry?  Let’s not forget about the delish factor of this spice.  However, I do have to concede that people either hate it or love it.  My ex-husband totally hated it and couldn’t stand the smell so I never used it in the house.  If I wanted curry anything, I had to go elsewhere.  ::giggle::

This makes an unruly amount of soup.  It can actually be split into two servings, so you can eat one half for lunch, and then the other half for a mid-afternoon snack.  HA!

Enjoy!

Every event in life can be causing only one of two things. Either it is good for you, or it is bringing up what you need to look at in order to create good for you. ~ Deepak Chopra

When I feel stuck, I feel like I am in quicksand.

Can you imagine it?

If you step into quicksand, what happens?  You start to sink. The sinking makes you panic, the panic makes you fight against it, fighting against it makes you sink faster and deeper.

Bear Grylls gives us a pretty good answer for getting unstuck.  You can see the answer in More
