Re: OT - Hungry for Change

I have a diabetic friend who ALWAYS has stomach problems, gas, bloating, this

and that. I once said " Do you think it might be the fact that you eat 2 whole

heads of broccoli or two heads of escarole at one sitting THAT THIS MIGHT BE THE

PROBLEM???

Her response was 'Oh I know but I LOVE BROCCOLI AND ESCAROLE.

So I think that even though people might KNOW the stuff is either too much of a

good thing, eating too much of it, eating not enough of this or that, well they

just don't care.

And P.S. , what did you think of my new greening up stand? I posted a new

thread and nobody came!!!

Was it  yours I saw that used a rack for hanging wet clothing in the shower? 

I saw that one.  it was a good idea and something  the person had.  I see so

many new things that I can't remember whose it was. 

 

I ate a couple bean sprouts this morning and I was not impressed.  Maybe I let

them go too long.  They have leafed out. The roots which were long, were very

bitter.  The top of a shorter one was not so bitter but not too tasty either. 

I think maybe I let them grow way too long before eating.  I have no idea what

kind of beans as there were several and some never sprouted.  I don't know

whether to try them in a smoothie and try to cover the taste or to dump them,

clean my trays and start over.  I did love the 4 seed salad sprouts.

The mosquitoes think I am candy, always have.  My husband gets none or doesn't

notice them.  I have even used OFF which I don't like.  Maybe if I eat the

right things they will stay away.

I'm a type 1 diabetic and mosquitos avoid me like the plague. I've heard other

diabetics say similar things. That may be one of the few things that diabetics

could call a blessing.

I saw a documentary once about a group of vegans that live in a communal type

setting in Hawaii-they said they live entirely off their own land, fruits,

veggies, etc. and none of them are bothered by bugs at all, even sleeping

outside at night. When they have visitors from the mainland, the visitors are

bothered terribly by the bugs, yet the group that lives there don't even notice

them. Makes you wonder if all that clean living doesn't interest the bugs! The

group noticed that THEY can smell the odor of Mcs and other things on

visitors. Very interesting. Only flaw with that theory, is that I eat as

" clean " as it gets, no junk, EVER...and the bugs still think I am their daily

bread!
