This morning I made juice by a mixer (which doesn´t seperate liquite and solid.)

4 oranges and half lemon (with a squeezer)
2 apples

I think it good to consume fiber sometimes. So, from time to time I make juice with a mixer.
As for types of fruits, I am going to try if a better juice can come out if less variety of fruits are mixed.
Also find out that juice tastes diferent (less delicious of course) after around 6 hours. There might be some reation. I´m not sure. But I´d better throw it away and make a fresh one than taking a juice which doesn´t taste nature.

Yesterday I was going to introduce two ways to save energy from digestion.
The first one is based on food combination. Among all we eat, there are protein (meat, milk, fish, etc) and starch (bread, noodle, rice, patatos). Diferent from fruits and vegetables, they both require a high level of energy in the digestion. And when the two are mixed up, the digestion time will be more than doubled. Let´s say, to digest only protein , it takes 3 hours in the stomach, to digest the mixed, 8 hours are needed.
Conclusion, only fruits and vegetable with protein or fruits and vegetable with starch. Try to avoid mix up protein and starch. I can´t believe the whole chinese nation is not eating correctly, meat and rice (protein and starch) everyday.

No juice this morning. I was in a hurry to office, with  an apple and 1/4 melon in a recipient.

I am to continue introducing the antidiet. The idea is to clean rubbish and toxin material accumulated inside our body. The measure is our own body energy. Energy is ererything. It´s like gasoline to a car. Without gasoline a car can´t go any far.

Talking about energy, we have to mention about digestion, which is all digestion activities, including eating, asimulation, absorbtion, delivering the nutrition the every cell, giving away the wasted part from the body cooporation between diferent organs, etc…No doubt that the digestion process occupy a bigger part of body energy consume. We can´t hardly find other acctivity which requires more energy than the digestion. This explain why we fell sleepy after a big lunch.

It´s necessary to find out way to save our body energy for a body self cleaning. Sin the digestion takes up the bigger part. Suer something can be done to save some energy from there. Tomorrow I´ll continue with how to save energy from digestion.

I might make a mistake believing that the skin itch was a reation of antidiet. Last night I could sleep until almost 5 o´clock in the morning and finally had to go to see a doctor, with arms and legs full of itch. The doctor said it was a alergy and there was no way to find out what I am alerge to. Could be what I ate, could be the dog with whom i played with,, could be sth in the air. So, i interpreted that also it could be a reation of body self cleaning. jijijij

The nurse gave me a injection and some pills. Then I went home and finally slept.

This morning I didn´t have time to make juice. Had to go out at 11 o´clock and had only slept 5 hours. However I insisted Harvey´s theory: only vegetable and fruit in the morning until lunch. I took 1/4 of melon before going out.

btw, i was totally free of itch this morning when I got up. Thanks God.

The second day of juice diet: only fruit and vegetable juice, water and maybe salad. Hungry? Not at all! Beggin to  experience things I read in the Internet written by people who were taking the same diet.

 

I had 0.5 L of juice for breakfast and prepared 1 L to take in the office during the day, two banana and 1 avocado pear (鳄梨). Though it´s a lot of liquit I have been thirsty just like what I read. Beside, this afternoon there is a small case of skin itch. Guess my body has had enough energy to focus on getting away toxin stuff inside.

Let me try to explain what I am doing with all the vegetable and fruit staff. Let´s call it antidiet (the book in spanish version that I read is titled ANTIDIETA.)
Since most of the population in a economically developed socienty begin to have health problem with a over-weight, and most of people who care about his weight go over diet after diet in vain, this method is named antidiet to mean that this group can give up trying those countless different diet and pick up this life style because it really works. Ok, this is how came the name.

So, what´s antidiet?

Antidiet means eating fresh fruit and vegetable (can be salad or juice) during a day or weeks. I have leart several ways:

1. Only fresh fruit and vegetable juice during 1-3 days every week,with fruit or vegetable salad.

2. Only fresh fruit and vegetable juice during 3-5 days every month, with fruit or vegetable salad.

3. Only fresh fruit and vegetable juice during 7-10 days every season,with fruit or vegetable salad.

4. Only fresh fruit and vegetable juice or salad in the morning until half hour before lunch, everyday

I have picked the 1st and the 4th to try.

In other words, antidiet means only fresh and uncooked fruit and vegetable to eat. No limit beside this. 

Recipe for today, may look like others that I mentioned before. It´s becouse I bought a lot of apple, orange and pear.

2 apples, 1 orange, 2 pears, a little bit pine apple and lemon.

Salad: 2 avocado pears with 1/4 of lemon. Takes good. I use this to gain wight

The above was what I had for dinner last night.

This morning I made 1.5 liters juice for I have planned a 2 days inside-body-shower so that for lunch I was taking fruit juice o eat fruit directly instead of eating lunch in a restaurant, today and tomorrow.

You might not image what a quantity of fruit to make enough juice for a day. It was a lot but I can’t remember the exact combination. Surely it has been more fruit in one day than all fruit I used to day in one or two weeks.

 Well, one of these days I will make a comment about the reason for taking juice during a whole day. Today I have to mention the juice I made last night was excellent.

A little bit pineapple, let’s say 150 g.

A little bit ginger, around 10 g.

A little bit spinach, around 10 g.

1 orange

2 apples and 2 pears

It turned out a very beautiful color: white from apple, pear and pineapple with a lightly green from spinach. Beside the naturally attractive  color, a terrific taste.

Note that water is no added, however it necessary to take water during the day because it can’t be replaced by juice.

Have a good day!

Morning, preferring a big cup of fresh and delicious juice than laying on the bed, I woke up at 7:15. Today I am going to prepare a lot of juice, not just for me, but also for my flat mate, my boss and a colleague. Flat mate and I 0.5 L, about 0.4 L that I carried to the company.

 

7 apples

Half melon

4 oranges

¼ papaya

3 carrots

 

Boss asked what I had added to make such a tasty juice… I said next time I’d carried him juice of a different and he’d love it for sure.

 

The flat mate said he couldn’t believe that he wasn’t going to gym (he lost around 2 kilos in a month). Don’t worry, since I have no extra weight to lose, I’ve gained 1 kilo

24/11/2009

3 apples

1 carrot

1 orange with ¼ skin 

 Pay attention to the orange skin which adds a special taste. If you like bitter taste, a whole orange with skin can be added.

 Fruit and vegetable juice based on a book named FIT FOR LIFE. It’s a life style that one only takes juice o eat fruit in the morning before lunch for a healthier life. There are some reasons:

1 Our body can recover by itself without help from outside world like medicine, but body energy is needed.

2 However, a lot of our energy is used for digestion and there isn’t enough left for body self cleaning and self-recover.

3 Our body has 3 cycles, of elimination, of digestion and assimilation. The cycle of elimination is during 4 o’clock in the morning to the midday.

4 Vegetable and fruit contain 80-90% of water and the digestion lasts 20-30 minutes while other food requires at least 3 hours and a lot of body energy to be digested.

5 The saved energy will be taken advantage to self-recover (if something goes wrong with the body) or self cleaning (throw away the wastes from the body as if taken a inside shower.)

 

There is more to day, let’s save it for tomorrow.  Have a good day!

Saw Julie & Julia yesterday with friends who cook and who don´t (me, for example.), yet the art and passion of cooking was excellently presented for every filmgoer to experience.

 

My life style has been changed a lot since my uncle talked to me about a juice plan. This movie has inspired me to write this space during one month about my breadfast experience with fruit and vegetable juice. No promise, I’ll just try to see if something new comes along.

 

Day 1 to begin:

 

1 apple

1 carrot

2 oranges

Half limon

¼ pine apple

 

Juice by blender, about 500 ml. Only fruit and vegetable in the morning. Got hungry around 11 o’clock. Time for a banana.

Antes de irme riego la flor
Es una costumbre y una necesidad
Sé que lo necesita, no es un cactus
¿El cactus gusta por ser fuerte o por querer poco?

Hoy me doy cuenta de que el amor nos ata
que no hay ningun día que no pienso en ti
pero me he convertido en un cactus
Promete que seas feliz y que sonrías

has been  a long long time since last time i listened to the cranberries. the group just had a gethering in Dublin, Irland, after about 6 years without performing at the same stage. the same voice full of energy and liberty, a voice that declears, when it sings, its desire for love and life. wild and nature, her look likes her voice. and i was  touched when she answered the question when would the three get back as a group:

for the moment it's no possible 'cause we all have family and babies. you can't do both together. when you're on the road you can't be a good parent. but it's your responsibility to be with your children after deciding to bring them to this world.

know it's logical, however, i also realise that not a small number of people put their job or career at a much more important place than their children. i will not, i sware. (dear baby, i hope one day you'll have the chance to read this, and know that although i can't be a perfect mom but i am definitly going to be one of the most dedicated mothers in the world.)

Listen to this:

"Time Is Ticking Out"

We'd better think about the things we say
We'd better think about the games we play
The world went round, around and round

We'd better think about the consequences
We'd better think about the global senses
The time went out, the time went out

What about Chernobyl?
What about radiation?
We don't know, we don't know

What about deprivation?
Gluttony, the human nation?
We don't know, we don't know
For me love is all, for me love is all
For me love is all, for me love is all

Time is ticking out
