Cut out all flour, meat & dairy from your diet for at least five days and eat tons of whole grains (kamut, quinoa, brown rice, oats), lots of veggies (especially asparragus, kale, beets, zucchinni, spinach), lots of fruits (especially cantaloupe, melon & berries) and drink lots of water. Best of luck! Hello Becky,

Dont worry about all the weight you need to lose. Worry about making MODERATE but PERMANENT changes in your health. Like most people, you're probably focusing on what you DON'T want to do or give up to lose weight (such as giving up the foods you like). Trying to do that is like trying to paddle upstream. Instead, ask yourself: "what foods that are making me stay overweight can I dispense with?". Maybe it's your morning cereal & orange juice, or the sugary granola bar you eat as a snack. These foods might be somewhat healthy, but they would still contribute to your body weight, and you probably don't even like them that much. Once you have weeded out unhealthy or fattening foods that you don't like, focus on reducing the foods you do like. Best of luck! Dear Beatrice,

Sometimes I last up to 5 days without having a bowel movement. I drink lots of water and I do eat fruits like a banana, apple and kiwi I also eat salads like every other day. What if that does not work to have a bowel movement at least once a day. What do I need to do to clean my intestinal walls? Sometimes I last up to 5 days without having a bowel movement.

It has been very hard for me to loose the weight. Almost all of my doctors say I need the lapband surgery. I have been through too many surgeries I do not want the lapband surgery. I want to loose the weight but I do not want to leave behind the foods that I like. Thank you for your tips.

If you ever want to take it up a notch buy some raw ground flaxseed to add to your oatmeal or yogurt, it will do wonders for your circulation, skin hair, nails and digestion. -Cristal Hi Heather,

My breakfast has been consisting of: 1/2 whole grain BagelThin with 1 TBSP peanut butter, about 1/2 low fat cottage cheese and 1/2 banana or there is a new oatmeal out now that is Low Fat and High Fiber (10gms per pack!!). I do need to work on eating more fruits and veggies. Keep up the good work online. I'm proud of you :) Hi Crystal,

]]> Comment on Sweeten Me Up With Stevia by Cristal http://cristalmunoz.com/natural-remedies/sweeten-me-up-with-stevia/#comment-6 Cristal Wed, 29 Dec 2010 05:47:32 +0000 http://cristalmunoz.com/?p=86#comment-6 I wanted to mention that I found a great Stevia brand called Nustevia (www.Ihealth.com) which is totally awesome because it has a very mild after taste. It's kinda hard to find but totally worth it, especially since it comes in convenient individual packets. If you are a big tea or coffee drinker or you like to bake, this is a great product and totally worth the pain of having to order it online. -Cristal I wanted to mention that I found a great Stevia brand called Nustevia (www.Ihealth.com) which is totally awesome because it has a very mild after taste.
