No More White Anything in my Kitchen Pantry!
Ladies,
I cannot tell you how quickly you will drop at least five pounds, by simply giving up bagels, pasta, white rice, white flour. It is amazing. Just open your pantry and fridge, and start tossing. You won’t believe it.
I do miss pasta so much. A friend just told me about Yam Bean Noodles (Shirataka) and Tofu Shirataka. Apparently they have No Carbs! I’m going to buy some this weekend, and experiment with some recipes.
Hi Elizabeth,
Thank you for mentioning the whole wheat pasta! I’m going to research that a little more. If I can find a low carb whole wheat pasta, that would be perfect. I’m pre-diabetic. So I really have to cut the carbs. I’ve got a whole wheat pasta that has 40 grams of carbs (less dietary fiber of 5g makes it 35, I guess) per serving size of 2 oz! So this one’s out. I’m going to look around some more. Hopefully I can find a low carb whole wheat pasta. I would be in heaven. Thanks again. I am a woman on a mission now!
Purchasing short-grain rices from the Asian stores will net far better whole germ rice, that is high in protein as well. I particularly enjoy a Japanese rice that has the whole germ in it, at 12 G protein/cup. (Far less expensive too - long grain rice is essentially garbage.)
Basically, avoiding anything that comes in a bag, box, bottle, or can - (quoted from my own published book), is wise. And OD’ing on vitamins/supplements only gives us the best sewage in the world (our bodies excrete what we don’t need, but remember that’s a task of the right colon, liver, and kidneys).
I don’t want to seem mean-spirited or cynical. For the tips the doctor offers up, sure, good sound advice, but I doubt many women would sit around rubbing orange peels and strawberries on their teeth. What is getting to me about these "You can be fab" articles you keep producing is that they aren’t true. Demi Moore? My God. Before she made that Charlie’s Angels movie, she went and had over $50,000 in plastic surgery, and then some. Let’s be honest here. Racquel Welch? Sure. Natural gifts…. and plastic surgery over time. Madonna? Ahahahahahahaha. Pause. Hahahahahaha. Pause. Gasping for air. Ahahahahahaha. This is a joke right? wowOwow? Stop it. You’re killing me. :::munching a blueberry to recover::::

WC,
Hope the blueberry revived you;-) Cute post.
Funny post…I could pay my mortgage on what Madge supposedly spends on cream to slather on at night. That said, I did look at the fab slideshow…and the only one who ‘looks’ like she just takes care of herself; no nips or tucks or even blueberries, is Meryl Streep. She looks like a nice approachable lady of her age. And what is wrong with that? Nothing except the blather that any of us can ‘get’ (from apparently our kitchen cupboards) what costs the Hollywood swells tens of thousands.
Pass the blueberries.
Right you are, WC - and … plums have replaced blueberries and pomegrants for those special nutrients. Just think of the most lucious foods naturally grown, and you’ll have the best foods for our bodies. Would you eat a cow (raw)? ;-))
These enlightening (out of date) articles do open us up to chatting though, don’t they!
