One Week and Counting…
Well, actually I am not counting. I plan to stay this course cause now I am convinced, partly by the three years of experimenting with plant based diets and partly the research and reading I have done, but mostly because of how great I feel. I won’t go into details but my body has been … Continue reading
Sauted in Water?
I read the ideal is veggies sauted in water, not oil. So I gave it a shot this week and loved it. I cut up two yellow squash and a huge handful of okra. (or … it’s pronounced “okree” in many places ’round here.) I tried an experiment and cut the okra ends off then … Continue reading

You see, I live in the South, in TN to be exact. I love the South. Lots of nice, polite, will-change-your-tire-for-you-in-a-heart-beat, sort … Continue reading
Sports Nutrition
One of my favorite things to read about is vegan athletes. It’s just always encouraging and affirming to me how obvious it becomes that a vegan lifestyle is a healthy one, especially if Carl Lewis can win nine gold metals without eating chicken! http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docid=744765316519516434&hl=en&fs=true Here are some of my favorite links on http://www.veganhealth.org. … Continue reading
