Thank you to my two new friends for their comments. I am tired and going to bed soon. John slept all day and I sat next to him. I did eat a salad for lunch that is an improvement and this afternoon I suddenly became aware that I was sitting watching TV and mindlessly eating candied pecans. I put the lid on the nuts and put them away. It was a first step.

Cancer 9 months, 1 week agoGood morning; I see there are 56 other members but I can’t find other posts beyond mine and Dr Hyman’s. I am going to include my post here on my husbands blog on caring bridge and see who is here. Transplant Day +7: We are back at the clinic at St Francis this morning doing John’s daily blood draw and check up by Dr.Thompson.
Today he is being…[Read more]

As my husband’s treatment for cancer became more involved and difficult I stopped do anything unrelated to that. I stepped away from here at that time. Currently we are away from our home and in an area of Indianapolis called Greenwood, at St Francis Hospital in the Stem Cell Transplant program. Today is Transplant Day+8, a real low point. We are…[Read more]

Hang in there…difficulty promotes strength, keep on keeping on. Know there are many standing behind you. I will keep your husband and you in all my prayers and thoughts.

Hi Pam & John,
You’ve come to the right place. Dr. Hyman’s program has been a while in coming, but it really works. There are so many imbalances in our lives that it’s hard to focus on the basics. It sounds like you are a great support to your husband, but you have to recharge also. As your husband improves you will have a chance to really…[Read more]

I love you Dr Hyman! I haven’t felt this good in years, what am I saying, Maybe ever! There is a down side to eating food without a label… I wanted to make the kale chips for a snack so I got my “kale” out of the frig and on closer inspection relized they were mustard greens. Call me crazy but I wasn’t ready for mustard greens chips. So,…[Read more]

Hi Pam, I love your vegetable story. It did make me chuckle! Boy choy chips will not fly! If you do get up the nerve to try them with mustard greens or collard post the results. I am enjoying the Kale ones so much I do not want to experiment yet. I love boy choy but have to chop it up before cooking, because I find it difficult to chew (except for…[Read more]

I have never had kale. I am afraid. It is green. LOL.
I need to get back into this. I was great for 2 weeks and then lost it when I had to bake for the kids school. 2 weeks later, I am still off the plan.
Pam, it looks like you are in the toughest battle of your life. Many prayers to you and yours.

Well it has been one week. We have eaten more spinach this week than we have had in the last year. I have learned to cook three dishes very well. I’ve lost 3 pounds and we both feel super.We are looking forward to grocery shopping tomorrow and trying new recipes this week..

Good going! What dishes have you mastered? I like spinach – is one of them a spinach recipe?

Recipes 1 year, 2 months agoToday is the first day that I went home and cooked and we ate and got back to work on time. We had that great Coconut Chicken Curry with Brown Rice and Salad. We drank water not Coke. It is sort of funny, after 3 days of eating right, I just didn’t want Coke any more. I didn’t quit, I just don’t want it any more.
I’m craving our good food.…[Read more] -

Cancer 1 year, 2 months agoMy dearest friend has Multiple Myloma and we go for Chemo twice every week it’s worrisome but at this point manageable. Eating this diet has made us both feel much better.

Pam, my husband has multiple myeloma. He first had it in 1988 and was suppossed to die in 4 months. Ha, ha, he’s still here. It came back last year, his kidneys are involved as well. After a kidney biopsy, they said he had 90% scarring & get ready to go on dialysis. Well, he now has over 50% function so doesn’t need diaylsis. I feed him the…[Read more]

Thanks. I think the boneless would work a lot better in the curry. I had to cook it for much longer that the 25-30 minutes! I also had trouble fitting everything in the pan! Ah well, live and learn!

Keep up the good work! I made the coconut chicken curry last night. It went over well with the family. My son said he kinda likes this diet because I am actually cooking more! For some reason I have a hard time getting the bone-in chicken breasts to cooked well enough. Maybe next time I’ll try cooking the chicken in the slow cooker first, then…[Read more]

Recipes 1 year, 2 months agoWow, what great food and all these recipes are on the advanced plan! On Friday I cooked the Lentil and Chicken Stew page 344, for dinner. This dish was prepared without the help of my new food processor and so I suffered. I began at 3:00 and we sat down to eat at 6:00.

Hi Pam, That is a great narrative! I feel full just reading it. Of course, we are all relieved the tornado wasn’t searching out your place. My favorite breakfast is a version of poached eggs over a tomato spinach mixture. I make up a batch (1 lb of fresh spinach and one 16 oz can chopped tomatoes) and it lasts for 5 days. Of course I am cooking…[Read more]

Margaret, how do you cook up the spinach and tomatoes? Saute, boil, etc.?

Hi Sally I put the organic (Muir Glen brand 15 oz) chopped tomatoes in a large skillet with a couple tablespoons of olive oil. I add 1 tbs of dill. (I am going to try Pam’s idea of thyme next) Then I use 1 lb of fresh organic spinach.(I pick through to make sure everything is OK, no rotten leaves) I Place 1/3 on top of tomatoes and let them cook…[Read more]

Hi Pam, How was the lentil stew?You bring out a good point, this eating plan is revolutionary. It can change the supply process so that much more sustainably grown food is available for everyone. Perhaps soon the farm subsidies will go to that sector. Margaret

Hi Pam,
It takes a little getting used to, this IT stuff. I just posted a message to you, but I think it was on my page. Oh well, we’ll just keep at it. I was mindlessly eating some almonds last night also. It helps to know we’re all working on the same stuff. Keep the Faith!
