Day 2 - 30 days to going vegan and lose weight

Day 2 -  Hope you had your Chia seeds with your breakfast and your green tea.  I eat this everyday.

These tips are not going to be about recipes and such,  These tips are meant to get you motivated to living, appreciating, and creating a better world and healthier lifestyle.

This is real important the exclusion tips are a must..those are the real game changers...so as of day one and beyond  no Butter  no margarine...today   no milk... as in no milk or cream in your coffee and no milk in your cereal, no drinking a glass of milk or whipped cream...I will try to make these baby steps and add on exclusion a little more everyday.

Not eating dairy will help magically eliminate dis-ease  from your body.  You really are what you eat.

Read these articles about dairy to understand why giving up dairy is important for your health and the world.

This will help you lose weight and feel healthy.  No dairy will equal  surge in energy and health.

How to go vegan in 30 days and lose weight and get healthy

DAY 1.  Learn about the power of Chia Seeds.  Click here .  These little seeds are better than any diet pill because they give you nutrients and curb your appetite and  help your blood sugar levels.  Sprinkle the chia seeds in your oatmeal, or on your  sprouted grains bread or whole wheat toast or English muffin,  like I do.

Now is the time to begin the exclusion: from this day forth  no butter or margarine in your diet  not separate  or  added or as a cooking oil.

Have this for breakfast on Day 2:   1/2 tablespoon  spoon of chia seeds on whole wheat toast smeared with organic unsweetened peanut butter  and a mug of green tea and a vitamin B-12 tablet

This is what I do.  Do not substitute this advice for that of a nutritionists.  I do not claim to have medical knowledge, so seek the advice of your doctor when experiencing any problems.

New scrapbooking layouts coming soon

Tropical Storm Isaac... alot of wind and rain.  I spent yesterday  trying to relax so I scrapped for Paper Temptress.  So look for them soon.

Layout Ripping Seams

A layout using all supplies from Paper Temptress.

supplies:

• Pink Grandma's wall paper
• Red Ruche Paper
• Black textures Leather paper (not real leather)
• ATC Patchwork in Lime
• Hambly stickers
• Pink Overlay All Mixed Up
• Silver Lustre 
• Epic Black Thick Columns

Scrapbook Layout- Hambly Overlays

Using the Hambly overlays on top of white paper makes the Hambly overlays undetectable.  The glare from the light  or even overlaying them on black paper -the overlay  becomes apparent.  Either way the look for scrapbook layouts can be quite unique.  Here I layered the overlays.  I just love the effect it has both as transparent layers and over cardstock.   Supplies:

• Red Vintage Overlay
• Lime ATC Patchwork
• Lime Urban Chic Frames
• Black Leather Paper
• White Felt Grandee

New favorite restaurant
