RE: New Kickstart September 5! Posted Sunday, August 21, 2011 at 1:33 AM Hi there, I'll be joining you all at the next kickstart as well - number 3 for me. Congrats on the 18 month vegan milestone Theodore. Its been 8 months for me as I switched from vegetarian to vegan for my first kickstart in January. Still hanging in there and not too many slips. Those that have occurred at all related to eating out and dairy products or eggs as hidden ingredients. So my personal mission for the next kickstart is to get better at asking the right questions in restaurants and not being afraid to make my requests clear or to explain that I am following the doctors diet PS I am finally getting the hang of the low fat side of things and all those yummy transition foods (e.g. the meat substitutes, cheese substitutes that taste good but usually high calorie and high sodium) are now special occasional treats. "see" you all soon. Christine Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food - Hippocrates. |

RE: New Kickstart September 5! Posted Tuesday, August 30, 2011 at 2:48 AM I'll be back, with renewed resolution and a different motivation. I quit smoking in March and my diet (and seems like my life) went to hell. Have been eating everything and enjoying nothing. |

RE: New Kickstart September 5! Posted Tuesday, August 30, 2011 at 10:06 AM Kiwi What are you talking about 18 month milestone. I've been vegan for 9 bloody years. It's Marge who's reached the 18 month milestone. Shall I ask my thread reading assistant if she'll provide services for you too. She's pretty good. She's actually the one that informed me about your blunder. Best Theodore Never make assumptions. You'll end up being an A**, and the UMP will TION you. -- Coach Smiley -- Fresh Prince of Bel Air |

RE: New Kickstart September 5! Posted Tuesday, August 30, 2011 at 3:08 PM Hi Theodore My days so busy I would love someone to read for me if you are paying. Im a wee bit broke right now to say the least. That would save me reading in a hurry and making blunders that I am now apologising for. In the mean time, is there any change in your life you have done for 18 months? If so, consider the congratulations for that. If not, it might be time for a change. Its not good if we get a bit stale or shall I say it - even boring A serious question now. Do you still find the kickstart helpful after being vegan for so long and in what way? Let food be thy medicine and medicine be thy food - Hippocrates. |

RE: New Kickstart September 5! Posted Tuesday, August 30, 2011 at 7:03 PM Yes I definitely find it helpful, Kiwi. I mean I don't need much help being vegan, but the health aspect is helpful. We don't have anything like this in England. Meal plans, daily messages, expert advice. And of course the celebrity phonecalls are fantastic. Although I think the best thing would be to just give me their phone numbers so that I can call them at any time. You never know when you're gonna need that extra bit of encouragement. Kris Carr totally agreed with me, actually. It's just a shame her chef started using her Vitamix just as she was giving me her phone number. All I heard was the first 2 digits. Is she even on the Kickstart plan, by the way ? It sounded like her chef was using speed 9, which you only really use when you're making peanut butter. Anyway thanks for the question Kiwi. Keep up all your good efforts. Theodore Never make assumptions. You'll end up being an A**, and the UMP will TION you. -- Coach Smiley -- Fresh Prince of Bel Air |

RE: New Kickstart September 5! Posted Wednesday, August 31, 2011 at 3:46 PM Well, it's only a year for us (Sept 2010 was my first kickstart) but just knowing that the kickstart is starting is helpful for refocusing on the other aspects besides "just vegan" - the low fat, non-"junk" vegan stuff. I can make a mean vegan chocolate cake BUT that doesn't mean it's a good choice (lots of sugar and fat involved). I'm also hoping that there'll be some new recipes, foods, combinations in the daily menus (things have been pretty similar in the kickstarts over the last year). --Deb R |
